I came here to voice this opinion as well. It’s one of the only things I miss about the other site. I have found people on Mastodon attempting to fill that void with regional hashtags though. YMMV.

Supposedly that was one of a couple leftovers from a more R rated first cut.

One of the expressed reasons for cutting funding to PBS and NPR (via the Corp. for Public Broadcasting) is because they can’t influence what is being said by those entities.

I haven’t heard that in a long time, most people just say iHole now.

This is already a copyright apocalypse though isn’t it? If there is nothing wrong with this then where is the line? Is it okay for Disney to make a movie using an AI trained on some poor sap on Deviant Art’s work? This feels like copyright laundering. I fail to see how we aren’t just handing the keys of human creativity to only those with the ability to afford a server farm and teams of lawyers.

As a UX person often my job is to implement somebody else’s vision rather than being able to design something that makes sense.

There is also a PWA version for those looking to try it out, and I believe it’s on F-Droid as well.

Ahem… it’s Edge Webview 2. Which I promise is in no way exactly the same as Electron…

I didn’t say that. What I said was if you change “monopoly” for “anticompetitive practices” my question still stands. “How is it different from how Nintendo acts with the Switch?” Keeping in mind that I had already conceded that better smartwatch access made sense.

While I appreciate semantic clarity as much as anybody else I’m not sure it changes my question in this case.

I rarely find myself defending giant corporations but after having looked at the list it seems I am going to have to.

Some of the things do make sense, like allowing other smartwatches the same notification access as Apple Watches. But others like the audio switching seem to lack a fundamental understanding of how that even works.

I keep trying to figure out though what exactly Apple has a monopoly in… they don’t have the largest segment of any market they are in so it makes it seem like the EU is complaining that they have a monopoly on iPhones… which… yes… but that is like saying Nintendo has a monopoly on the Switch.

Edit: I seem to have failed to express the nuance I wanted to. None the less there seem to be some issues with the demands here and I think it will be interesting to see how this pans out.

My experience does not reflect yours. Computer Architecture, Discrete Math (logic gate math), and Operating System Concepts were all required classes in my CS degree from just a few years ago.

I don’t know… I am starting to think that’s the plan. That way they have somebody divorced from the situation waiting on the bench when shit finally hits the fan.
