throw1234567891··on Apple announces changes for apps in the European Union
> “I don’t want to be able to do what I want to do.”

No. I already do what I want to do. I don’t use apps. Regardless if it comes from the App Store, or any other website on the internet. How do you arrive at your interpretation.

I just told you in this thread that I don’t. Explain that to your mother! Or your paps, or your little kid.

I have my popcorn ready for the new wave of installing malware apps through some click jacking scams.

I’m not Tim Cook. You need to send an email to him, apparently he reads them. Anyway, I still prefer that instead of having a risk accidentally installing some shit scam app from literally anywhere on the internet. Is it so difficult to understand the difference? At least I can hold Apple liable when I buy a scam app on their App Store. What you propose is basically shareware of 1990s. Zero security.

Don’t get me even started on the hypocrisy of the people wanting what you propose. So, the reason you want to build an app for iOS is that there are many of us. There are many of us because of App Store, mainly, as an end user. Pick one. You are proposing breaking the only platform making the iPhone an interesting product for a computer illiterate.

They can limit whatever they want within their own borders. Who cares. It’s only ~350m people. The rest of the world benefits while the US dismantles its own relevance.

Yet you all cry for the right to repair. I’m confused. Is this a selective law, or what. And if yes, how is that legal?

But the mechanics to work around it, and potentially slip something onto my phone, are already in there. No, thanks. The problem with this wholeEU bullshit is that the pro-consumer and pro-security do not always go hand in hand. And relevant dept lawyers don’t always communicate sufficiently.

I don’t buy apps anyway. Want to keep me as a client? Make your website functional. Fuck your apps. With all this b2c invoice bullshit in the EU now everyone wants me to install their app. Fuck you, send me an email!

Hahahaha, are you fucking serious. As an Apple customer, that’s exactly what I don’t want.

I buy s Mercedes Benz. I want a warranty. I am forced to use an authorised service provider who’s expensive af and I risk losing the warranty otherwise. How is that not anticonsumer? I crash said car, the insurer will not insure my car until it’s fixed by an authorised technician. How is that not anticonsumer.

If you place an upsale button in your app and then break out from the app to complete the purchase, yes. Are you living under a rock? It’s been like this for a bit. You want to avoid it? Don’t place the upsale button in your app.

Who cares, geez. Is a single github issue so important that this needs to land on the front page? You can move it and configure your own env to have it wherever you want.

I use pi and couldn’t care less.

Right? Do you also type on a Mac Studio without a keyboard plugged in? Like tap the ethernet port 3 times in a row then this sequence of sticking your fingers into TB5 ports? I mean, it’s clear you stick your RTX into a computer.

Ah, “go and educate yourself” argument never ceases to amaze me.

You seem to know. Why don’t you prepare educational data and educate people instead of “go figure it out”. If each and everyone has to “go and figure it out”, I’m not surprised almost nobody cares. People are just tired of hearing it. They don’t even know what the correct question is!

Nobody says novel. We just ”can’t send not our own intellectual property to a third party because contracts”. Then we roll out on premise. And we don’t miss anything, in fact we feel we gain more than we lose out. With proper tools we are not far off.
throw1234567891··on Claude Seems Down
It’s not, you drink too much Kool-Aid, and your employer has too much money. Or the things you do are simply so irrelevant that nobody cares you’re sending stuff to a company of dubious morality.

Hurt enough to not be able to physically do things around myself anymore, and not enough to die. Say: a spine broken at third vertebrae. Imagine, can’t even take your own life.

Yeah, I do. I’m not afraid of dying, not dying and becoming a plant is what I’m afraid of.

You don’t get what they say. It’s not about about how efficient it is after encode, it’s about how fast encode is. They are not spewing bs, they’re focusing on a single point. The question is: do you send it over the wite more often than performing encode/decode.
