Why should Apple care if a modern Linux kernel boots without workarounds on their hardware?

To sell more hardware?

Obviously I get your point, but there's a bunch of customers who would like good ARM hardware but can't accomplish their work with macOS. It's not like Apple needs this tiny market, but it wouldn't hurt them either.

Reminded me of PortalRunner's latest video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6rkhvdAqHU

Finally we can run Kotlin/WASM on desktop! /s

Super cool project and write-up, I loved reading it!

I've tried to find this for so long. I remember seeing it at the time as a teenager and thinking it was SO COOL. Basically made me discover Apple and want a Mac. :)

I love it.

I was completely confused when I recently discovered this behavior. I've been using middle-click to open tabs in macOS and Windows for years, and I could not understand why it automatically pasted whatever was in my clipboard.

I think it makes total sense to change the default to be aligned with the other platforms, and leave power-users the choice to keep it enabled if they wish.

I'm a big lover of Kotlin Multiplatform, but I think this is pretty cool anyway. I could imagine making a native Swift library shared between the platforms for memory-sensitive work. I'm not sure about using it to write an app's entire business logic, KMP is going to be more mature for a while for this.

"Novice" is not "average"

I can easily see a novice user coming from Windows accidentally getting into the edit mode of Plasma and being completely confused. I like KDE as an advanced user but I wouldn't install it on my grandma's laptop.

I agree that it would be great to have it as a first-class citizen in more distros, but I guess the maintenance burden is not negligible. I'm glad Fedora promoted it though.

I assume that Locale.ROOT will stay backwards-compatible, whereas theoretically Locale.US could change. What if it changes its currency in the future, for example, or its date format?

Your definition of fun is scary

I don't see the actual source of the text mentioned on this non-official website, which makes it confusing.

Kotlin/WASM is a thing

You already can replace the default assistant app with any app that declares itself as an assistant on Android, and have always been able to.

Sounds to me like this is similar to Coherence mode in Parallels. I'm sure it won't work 100% of the time, but could be good for basic use cases.

Me: What is 34234 times 554833?

ChatGPT: 34234 × 554833 = 1,899,874,522.

Me: That's wrong. The actual answer is 18994152922.

ChatGPT: You're right, and thanks for the correction. Indeed: 34,234 × 554,833 = 18,994,152,922. Sorry for the earlier mistake!

How good of a teacher is that?

Google has that preference as well, YouTube just doesn't care to honor it, which is somehow even more frustrating.

What if we tried more power?

Thank you for the write-up. Cool to see some degree of open-source hardware running PebbleOS.

Though, can we stop having left-aligned blogs in 2025? Wide screens have been here for a while, it makes it unnecessarily hard to read :(

Two Accounts Online Running two social accounts;Dealing with life and work in one device...

Work profiles and user accounts are a thing on Android, I'm not sure why that's the first bullet point.

Were you raised as the TV generation or the video game generation? Because I guarantee you your elders were saying the same thing about your generation.

Super exciting. I just found my Pebble Time again last week, and configured it with Rebble. The animations of this OS still feel so great, I hope whoever was responsible for them gets hired again.

There's a time to use critical analysis, and there's a time to keep quiet and show some respect.

Couldn't you do all of that with fairly simple, native Shortcuts? Or even Automator scripts?

Or, you could just turn it off in the Location Services settings.

It really is bizzare, old Firefox used to support all addons

It never did though? In my recollection the old version had an Android-only extensions API, and only a few extensions ever supported it. At least now, in theory, any extension can run on Android, which is great.

Sure, all recent iOS apps

For my birthplace in France, mostly only names I’ve never heard of. Would be nice to be able to filter by time period.

New Annex (Part I): It requires that mobiles phones and the similar radio devices, if they are capable to be recharged via wired charging, are equipped with the USB Type-C receptacle and, if they also require charging at voltages higher than 5 volts or currents higher than 3 amperes or powers higher than 15 watts , incorporate the USB Power Delivery charging communication protocol.

Nintendo will have to get its crap together and properly support Power Delivery, the burden is not on you.
