jesus christ, what’s that terrible noise?

I assume they are doing checks of other things. Local software is not the same as a web service that is checking your IP for your location.

They could use location services, your registration country for your Apple ID, the sale location of your device, and other things. They could even aggregate indicators and use that.

No, nothing like that. I’m just calling Elon a petulant man-child.

Perfectly?

I guess we understand more about the brain than I thought. 🤔

Lemmy on the ground with first hand reports!

Just wanted to say I share your complicated thoughts on this. It’s not as simple as “Rah! Rah! Piracy!” No one is entitled to another person’s work. But things get nuanced and messy fast once you move beyond that narrow contextualization.

Because Elon is a child.

Like most things, it was nearly 30 years ago. So everyone acts like they can’t remember it.

Institutional knowledge is not something corpos seem to like anymore. That hampers next quarter thinking.

I wonder if this will slowly morph towards Reddit/Lemmy structure. All the major platforms are becoming homogeneous as they chase each other.

They should start work on getting their pipelines/engines to support Metal too then. And distribute across Apple’s growing selection of M series hardware.

It seems like it’s only a matter of time before the Apple TV is even more like a game console.

You can’t monitor shit.

Wow. Let’s hear people just say they should “grow a thicker skin” and “block and move on” to this one.

Beep boop

I smell loophole!

That’s true! 😰

That’s actually an interesting oversight in the reporting. But I can see how it woulda been a can of worms and would have caused scope creep for the piece.

Amazon and other stores are cracking down on returns.

Thanks! I did some googling and didn’t find this. This is what I was looking for.

People who are blindly data driven piss me off so much. It leads to these practices where they demand data and act like they have the right to collect it.

They often don’t like to act like they have to properly protect the data either.

heh, just adding dots to everyone’s screens by default. Sounds logical.
