And all that, for them to then put your private home address (assuming you're not a business) on the app page?

I haven't bothered with them for years now, since the way they treat indie devs is absolutely awful.

And the 12 people/14 days things was a complete show-stopper. Two arbitrary numbers completely pulled out of someone's arse.

It's interesting to see these cautionary tales appear. Pretty much playing out exactly how many of us thought they would.

And then you've got the local "Wan2GP" setups "for the GPU-Poor".

Also tried the "Locally Uncensored" setup on a 3060 laptop, which worked surprisingly well.

How has it taken so long for this to get some proper attention?

I'm not Ed's biggest fan, but he's been pointing out some very important things for quite some time now, regarding the ludicrous over-investments going on around so many companies that are completely and utterly devoid of profits and will likely never have any.

Careful, you'll get downvoted by knee-jerk reactions from people who have absolutely no idea whatsoever about the harm Spotify causes to artists trying to survive in the music industry.

Vibe coded or not, Spotify is a disgusting company for artists, however fast or fancy it's made.

Nice. I'm loving seeing the increase in usage of Gaussian Splats these days.

And it's getting so much easier to create them too.

The extendable/retractible robot legs/arms is a great application for this. Though, reminds me of the Sentinels in The Matix.

Amazon crippled the ADB functionality on FireTV Sticks a while ago. Making it an absolute pain to build and debug TV apps on. Currently, the only way to test is to install a release build every time.

And we had kill files for spam.

Claude is in the contributor list on the repo.

Actually, after closer inspection of the screen on the third image of the device in the article, there does appear to be a Bluetooth icon.

Confirmed in the Dev Portal. https://docs.flipper.net/one/hardware/wifi-bluetooth

The 'Layers' comparison image suggests that there would be no Bluetooth in the Flipper One. I would have thought that would still be very useful in 'Layer One'?

Genius. And also terrifying.

I call it "furapy".

Nicely done. I started a simple idea/project based on PeerJs (with self-hosted CoTURN) to make a little private 'zoom-like' chat.

I'd been considering doing an Omegle clone too, but have been side-tracked.

I also might take a look at the p2p file transfer ability WebRTC has for some other ideas.

In the video he says the Full-Duplex SDR (Nuand bladeRF X40) hardware can be quite expensive. But he found one on ebay for $270.

Ahhh, WWWBoard. Those were the days!

app.net was great for developers. We made money each month based on user feedback. It was worth the higher membership fee to access all that too.

Sadly, and despite the way it was originally funded (by the users), I believe they took some VC funding, which ultimately killed the platform since it wasn't getting the growth that the investors wanted.

Actually, if Elon wants 'X' to become an 'everything app', one way which that could be done is through opening up to more app devs to build their own apps on the platform, as it used to be. Sadly, I don't think they've got the will or the manpower to do that these days.

I assume this is to cover any losses from them soon making it possible to use the Quest without a Facebook account? ie: The data they will not be able to sell.

The cross-browser support and standardisation for `input=date` (and `input=datetime`) has been notoriously poor for years. It's still only listed as 'partially' supported on some browsers on caniuse.

That's why so many people roll their own.

That's not a million miles away from how Second Life operated (and still does). Where the 'Land' & 'Estates' (and parcels within them) were servers. Each has their own limitations to how many user avatars they can support at one time.

People flock to places they identity with. Buy parcels. Build their own space and communities within communities.

As far as 'voting' and governance goes, I think there's room for development with blockchain login/identity/ownership and Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) which support that.

For querying and subscribing to events for defi, using the Uniswap and ETH Subgraphs, it's great for building 'web3' apps.

Nice. But I searched for 'Aluminium'. It gave me results for 'Aluminum' (American English).

I must report about 10-15 of these every week to YouTube. Recently, it's been Shiba Inu due to the pump it's been getting.

Most of the scam live streams I've seen and reported are channels which appear to have been 'taken over'/'hacked' and their content changed or deleted to then kick off a 'giveaway' stream which are all scams.

They all have the same basic layout on screen, so really YouTube's bots should do a better job of detecting them. YouTube are literally recommending content which perpetrates fraud, at this point.

OPML is the tree. RSS are the vines. Items (articles, podcasts etc.) are the fruit.

And with OPML's ability of 'inclusion' (to any remote tree or branch), it makes creation, curation and 'harvesting' the fruit, a joy.

That's more or less what Shakespeare did 500 years ago. ;)

Out of interest, what's to stop them publishing some 'version' of the modified code, but actually running a different version on their servers? Would that be easy to detect?

Oh! Ha! I did not notice that! I thought something seemed weird though. ;)

He says "Interestingly, Apple has removed the fingerprint reader and its associated dedicated chip", but both models have Touch ID in the keyboard. Top right.
