Yeah, the issue is not “Microsoft’s usage of the XML format”. The issue is that they blatantly bought their format’s standardization, and then intentionally released an implementation that substantially deviated from the specs, making sure that MSO was the only “compatible” implementation.
Yes, but everything above it (including drivers) is custom-made and tightly controlled by Google.
Yeah, if they’re not lying it will be the worse phone ever made. The US-made Purism Liberty is $2000 and has similar specs to the Asia-made, $800 Librem 5, which is already overpriced compared to Android devices.
Yeah but if the script which initiates the connection to the local server is blocked there’s no connection to intercept in the first place.
Nah, the script connects to a server run by the Instagram or Facebook app and feeds it info, bypassing isolation mechanisms entirely. I think ublock or other script-blocking add-ons might work though.
They’re at the “right to do whatever the fuck we want” stage.
Yeah the point is just to soften the populace to the idea. Our fucking PM covered for pedophile priests in a Catholic school 30 years ago, he doesn’t give any fuck about kids.
I agree, but as a mobile dev I wish they’d leave the OS alone instead of “optimizing” it, creating new exceptions to the rule and edge cases in the process…
Yeah, with Arch the install and initial setup is the hard part, but they do that for you so I don’t get the point of going with Manjaro.
That’s just not true, chatgpt & co are hugely popular, which is a big part of the issue.
Why bother switching then?
I am a whiner, and I keep whining and whining until I win
President Donald J Trump
I know, I meant that although I’m interested in the tech I’ve barely tried it.
Well I do want this, augmented/virtual reality is exactly the kind of shit I dreamt about as a kid during the 90’s, and having a huge screen available anywhere I go is pretty fucking cool.
But yeah, I used a VR headset exactly once for like 5 minutes, and there’s no way in hell I’d buy one from meta or apple. If Valve releases good XR/AR glasses I might consider it.
They have quotas to fill. Makes sense for them to pick these low-hanging fruits.
Windows 11 home costs more than $200???
I can work at my desk using only my laptop. Do I want to, and is it my actual setup? No, and no. My laptop is plugged into my ultra wide screen, my mechanical keyboard and my mouse. That’s what he meant, and that’s what I found interesting.
Well yeah, “they” being the VP of the FN :)
Here you go. My translation of the email :
During the upcoming years we will only make it if we make substantial savings thanks to the European parliament, and if we manage to get additional subsidies.
Try it, you might be surprised. I played WoW under Linux like 15 years ago, and for a couple of patches WoW ran much better under Linux than Windows because of a bug in the GPU driver or something. The Wine folks handle buggy Windows software all the time, and might fix bugs that MS won’t bother with.
