aeurielesn··on The Rabbit R1 is probably running Android and is powered by an Android app
To be honest, I still don't understand the appeal of this product. I've always got a "one-time quick-cash hustle" video out of it and I can't trust it.

That's a nice find! I didn't know what the process for determining fines works.
aeurielesn··on Grindr Sued in UK for Sharing Users' HIV Data with Ad Firms
I would love to know what % of gains from selling PII are the fines. The MO of breaking the law and paying the fines is never going to change with these laughable fines.

If you had read it, you would know it has nothing to do with content moderation but with the rewards-based activity system.
aeurielesn··on EU opens probe of TikTok Lite, citing concerns about addictive design
You should really read the article first next time, not just the headline.
aeurielesn··on People are bailing on Safari after DMA makes changing defaults easier
I don't believe Apple is just going the loss quietly. I wonder what's the next gross anti-competitive idea they'll come up with to rollback things to what they were before DMA.
aeurielesn··on Ugreen to Challenge Synology with Affordable Series of NAS Hardware
Anyone have any first-hand experience with this brand?
aeurielesn··on Why the DOJ's case against Apple has everything to do with Microsoft in the '90s
Sadly, an Antitrust case against Microsoft (under Nadella's crapware reign) is less likely to happen while the DOJ is busy with Apple.
aeurielesn··on Microsoft is stuffing pop-up ads into Google Chrome on Windows again
It seems more systematic of American companies past few years and the trend of small fines for egregiously gross violations.
aeurielesn··on Microsoft is stuffing pop-up ads into Google Chrome on Windows again
We need amazing graphics card drivers and native AAA games support in Linux so Windows can finally die.

The stuff Nadella is doing is just gross.

aeurielesn··on Software on gas pump with "demo mode" enabled allowed "free" gas for 5 months
I wonder myself what was the thought process to charge it as a felony.

aeurielesn··on Thierry Breton: Under DMA, there is no room for threats by gatekeepers
I always thought Epic wanted to push Apple's button until they showed their true face which, by the way, it seems to have worked wonders on EU upon DMA.
aeurielesn··on Apple EU Antitrust Protest a Weird Thing to Do Just as the DMA Is Taking Effect
Apple so focused on a walled garden in this time and age is going be their undoing.
aeurielesn··on Google lays off entire team while they are testifying to the city council
People like this that don't bat an eye to dehumanize, shouldn't be anyone's elected representatives.
aeurielesn··on Apple reverses course on death of Progressive Web Apps in EU
I also wonder what's point of PWAs _only_ supported in WebKit.

It feels like they trying to keep playing cat and mouse.

aeurielesn··on SEC Investigating Whether OpenAI Investors Were Misled
I truly wonder whether anyone will ultimately go to prison for all the copyrights infringements surrounding OpenAI.

Unless being a CEO in the US gives you a free get-out-of-jail card.

aeurielesn··on Mistral Remove "Committing to open models" from their website
I couldn't agree more.
aeurielesn··on EU DMA requirements have killed iPhone progressive web apps
Honestly, they don't care.

Apple is using this as a chance to spin the public opinion against DMA — which it's hurting their walled garden — to kill a feature they never wanted.

It was confirmed in another thread they killed PWAs for Safari too which it doesn't make sense.

aeurielesn··on Apple to EU: "Go fuck yourself"
The US companies thinking the EU needs to bow down to them is what's bonkers.
aeurielesn··on Zuckerberg: Apple's DMA rules 'so onerous' he doubts any developer will opt in
I wouldn't even be surprised if they end up with a product ban in the EU.
aeurielesn··on My favourite Git commit (2019)
I had a terrible time when someone used "smart quotes" (beautified Office quotation marks) in a configuration file. I believe this was only possible because they copied it from Outlook.
aeurielesn··on Hacker Newsy: a pretty Hacker News client
Am I the only one that finds a sorted-by-time front-page more fascinating than custom styling?

I have been browsing via https://hckrnews.com/ for years now.

aeurielesn··on Mozilla says Apple's new browser rules are 'as painful as possible' for Firefox
Agree. But I assume this is so much harder than right to repair — which Apple equally will never respect.
aeurielesn··on Unique 3-word identifiers for every 3 meter square on Earth
I dislike my location forms a phrase with a negative connotation.
aeurielesn··on PyPy has moved to Git, GitHub
Why do people like Mercurial branches? Was it revamped? I hate it when I used it.

By all means, I prefer Git branches.

aeurielesn··on Microsoft defends Edge's predatory practices with cringe, audacious reply on X
Let's not forget the free IDE comes with a telemetry tracker.
aeurielesn··on 23andMe changed its terms of service to prevent hacked customers from suing
