I have no love for apple and their crap. I'm just tired of the endless stream of this bullshit fake outrage by the worst perpetrators.

I'm so fucking tired of these asswipes from companies are a thousand times worse pretending they are better. They literally sell all your data to anyone who wants is, but noooo, ap…

Fakespot is literal cancer that steals passwords, location data, purchase history etc etc. Should never been in the app store to begin with!

I call bullshit. I suspect selection bias

It took me 5 minutes to figure out what eproctoring is

Lets hope so... I expect that these were accidentally committed to a public repo However, while the keys are then already leaked, you'd have to go search for them. Copilot suggests…

If you wait for that, all diabetics will be dead probably…

As someone who has to deal with a lot of bots, bot networks and other weird scraper apps people use: The biggest issue is that most of these tools are not behaved very well. This t…

If your scraper behaves, perhaps it would not be blocked…

About as useful a take as ‘dont click on phishing links’

This, I am not at all reassured by this that it won't happen again. Next week perhaps. Also, their DNS broke last month as well, but I guess we won't mention that as it would inval…

It was not that quick tbh. We were seeing intermittent issues for several hours after the initial problem arose. It tought me a valuable lesson: make sure it is easy to switch to a…

I have the same experience. I bought a System76 darter pro, it comes with a linux pre-installed. I've been using it on and of for a year now but cannot 'give up' my mac: - It is no…

I believe we are reaching a singularity. Like 90% of content is written by marketeers for bots. SEO they call it. Now we can take out the middle man. Bots writing crap for other bo…

While there are some nice open solutions out there, pine64 etc, one thing I'd like to see in more open projects is high quality. I have a Pinebook Pro & an System76 Darter laptop. …

Epic needs to sit this one out honestly. They are only doing this because "we didn't get a special deeeeeaaalll :'(" Apple needs to get their head out of their asses and fix this b…

typical vice.com click bait. They compiled an existing malware platform for the M1. They did not write anything new or exploited actual issues/features of the M1

ah yes, the 'just get a better job' argument. smh.

For anyone using pixels: Under the GPDR tracking pixels require explicit consent as they monitor user behaviour. This _cannot_ be covered with any implicit forms of consent like 'y…

Perhaps because the person that they used as their main source said they completely misquoted him and that he believes it was complete BS?

Tried running rails on it? Its like 10x slower then mruby still in my experience. It is the same issue I've seen with jruby and rubinius back in the day: they claim it is as perfor…
