The kid behind the counter at most places is neither paid nor trained enough to identify if the digital card in my phone’s wallet comes from their app or if I made it myself.
Honestly the laws don’t consider open source operating systems at all. They’re meant for the overwhelming majority who are using commercial operating systems. They imagine something like android or iOS or windows where yeah they ask the question during user creation and then handle the age gating in their app stores, anything outside that model isn’t something they’re going to spend any time thinking about, because why would they?
Unfortunately you probably need to think abou this from the point of view of an anti-fraud/abuse team. How would you differentiate between a business that had an employee go rogue and a business deliberately trying to cause harm and get away with it?
Claiming you fired the party responsible isn’t very convincing, honestly, especially if it’s hard to verify: was it an alias? did the employee only exist on paper? are they still around just not “employeed”, were they a designated patsy? Nor are claims that you revamped your security, which doesn’t address the root problem of whether it was intentional behaviour or not. And what’s worse, the natural urgency and appeals to emotion that you include in your story are unfortunately widely used tactics by scammers to try to get a human to bend rules to their benefit, and reviewers are trained to treat them as such. You need hard evidence.
How can you demonstrate that you didn’t know what the employee was doing? Have you reported the employee to the police? Is there a criminal case you can point to? Simply having a bad process before could very easily have been an intentional way to avoid knowledge of wrong doing, another common tactic used by criminal orgs.
I don’t care what your website does, not one tiny bit. I care that the majority of websites are shit, and therefore the web platform should be as minimal and isoltated from the device as possible.
Absolutely nothing listed on that site as unsupported by Safari has any business being part of the web. In fact several supported APIs should be chucked too. Fuck giving websites motion data or push notifications.
I've been on a flight where a set of parents took away their child's tablet, not for being noisy but as punishment for some other bad behaviour. What resulted was 6 hours of a child screaming on an 8 hour flight. Aside from wanting to punt the little shit out the door, I was almost impressed at the kid not giving up after a few minutes, and then hours when nothing changed.
But on a plane they'll have already been asked by a flight attendant either by the time the plane takes off, or as soon as it stops climbing. So clearly this isn't working on the people this rule targets. In fact I think this rule is actually the ideal response from the airline and should be adopted everywhere, as anyone who is so unconcerned with the wellbeing of others as to play audio on their device without headphones shouldn't be allowed to fly, as they're obviously happy to fuck up everyone's day, and won't follow instructions.
Apple literally made step by step instructions for compiling and running your own kernel on Apple silicon. Not sure how you think asahi Linux works otherwise. Sure the drivers are anywhere from bad to non existent but that’s not the same thing as being unable to run your own kernel.
As someone who tried every TTS in existance a few years ago for some product work, Apple’s is so consistantly better that we wound up getting a bunch of apple stuff just for the TTS.
My Sennheiser momentum 3 wireless (the cans not the in-ear ones) are cable-optional and do noise cancelling with the cable attached as long as they have battery left. In case you're like me and REALLY need that combo of features.
Compiling native extensions that link against libraries that can’t be included in the package for license reasons. That’s probably the one reason that simply can’t be removed.
Doesn’t work for cloning, obviously. The way I handle it is I have ssh look at the hostname and path passed by git and decide which identity to use. This is very easy in openssh 10.0+ using the command matching syntax, and more difficult to varying degrees on earlier versions of openssh, depending on your OS.
it's this part: "The top SKU has a similar performance and efficiency profile to the base M5 processor along with faster graphics performance." that is naive, this has been the standard lie told by intel as long as Apple silicon has existed, "Ignore everything we've ever done or promised before, our NEXT gen will be as fast and power efficient as apple! We promise this time!". It has never been true, and honestly I don't think it CAN be true when they have to give over a full third of their transistor budget just to decoding the abomination that is x86_64.
The lack of a divot prevents iFixit from selling an overpriced single use tool that exactly matches the divot shape for $50 USD that just so happens to be the exact same shape and material as a $0.05 guitar pick. Totally unacceptable, won't anyone think of the environment?!?!?!?!
Because it was created as a reaction to the Black Lives Matter movement and was designed to imply that the existing status quo, where the USA acts like black lives don’t matter, isn’t a real problem.
I hate to say it but checking if a string is ~= some identifier might actually be something an llm might be useful for, since it doesn't need to be 100% accurate and does need to evaluate the string against a massive number of potential transformations.
Well for this particular functionality whatever you use (website, app, etc) must have a valid apple developer certificate, so either the website must be up, the app's backend server must be up, or an offline app's bundled certificate must still be valid. All of these things will eventually stop being true regardless of the form the app/website takes.
Tower is also very good. Probably just due to having used it more, I prefer it over Fork, but I can get by if I have to use a computer not licensed for Tower.
As long as it scans they don’t care.
