Videos basically explains it. There are lots of people making devices, but with cassettes, the deck core mechanism is basically the same simple spec that Chinese manufacturers have knocked off.

Sidebar rule 3: Don’t be a jerk. You’re on time out.

Just like when Threads launched and or when Reddit made the API changes. You get a flood of new users who want to talk about being new users.

Alternative theory. Reverse image search is imperfect.

I don’t know about soup trout, but goldfish are thriving.

The way this article is framed sounds like bullshit to me. 18.1 was released less than 2 weeks ago. Any phone running this version of iOS would have had to already been in custody and somehow upgraded to this version, or otherwise brought into custody very recently—too recently for this to have already posed such a problem that law enforcement is “freaking out” and reporting it to the media.

A non-insignificant amount of people have been running the public betas because of Apple intelligence, RCS / iMessage toys, UI customization, etc. For example, MixPanel reported about 2% of the iOS install base running 18.0 before 18.0’s launch. IMHO, that’s pretty crazy for a beta OS.

Looks like the big difference is that this is on by default, it appears to get enabled when cops turn off internet access to prevent access to FindMy and remote lockdowns.

IMHO, the novelty of the feature isn’t what makes this headline worthy. This is noteworthy because of the scale. iOS is over a quarter of phones on earth, and in English speaking countries and Japan, you’re looking at numbers that are often over 50%.

This will impact a LOT more investigations than Graphene, and I imagine Apple will be back in court fighting cops who want to remove privacy and security features. Hopefully this stuff stands up to the autocrats coming into power in the states.

There are concepts of a plan

Why doesn’t MS do what Apple does with Writing Tools. Put it Rewrite at the OS level so that anything with text can access the feature? Doing this an app at a time is odd.

Many in the community recently asked us to start removing political videos, and we put it up for a vote a few weeks ago.

We’ll leave this up since it’s a fake candidate and basically just a skit about a man with a silly name. But anything regarding public policy, foreign policy, or a real politician should likely go to the new political videos community.

Ideally we could solve this problem with tags and filtering, but lemmy just isn’t there yet, and this is what the regulars in c/videos have repeatedly asked for.

Elon’s entire product development career fits into this framework:

______ was supposed to ______ by now

The big box store bulbs suck. Pay more for Phillips bulbs.

We’ve yet to define that. That said, the big reason for the move is because of community complaints around content regarding elections, political candidates, systems of government, foreign policy, etc.

He pointed to Amazon’s principle of “disagree and commit,” which is the idea that employees should debate and push back on each others ideas respectfully

That’s all fine and dandy for ending debate about a stupid roadmap feature, but “disagree and commit” is a different story when you’re asking people to spend 3 hours unpaid in a car everyday.

Authenticity.

Shows with a laugh track are basically telling you that the writers producers think certain jokes are funny. And fuck that noise.

Shows without a laugh track generally get laughs because an audience is having fun.

Given the fact that Trump lies 95% of the time, who the fuck knows what Cook said to him, or if he even had a call at all.

That said, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Apple doesn’t like EU regulations. They been fighting that stuff, in public, for years.

I’ll speak as someone who has been in the creative space for 20 years.

Non-“making” work is a large part of any creative job. Sometimes it can be the bulk of the time spent doing the work. A professional isn’t just making; they’re often researching, synthesizing, pitching, negotiating, documenting, formatting, etc. All of that stuff is just as important.

I would check in with a community of professional writers and bring specific examples. An example type of job, the vague topic, the word count, the time spent writing, the time spent formatting in their tool, etc.

They can help to identify the gaps and problem-solve around it. Is the client underpaying? If so, how do you avoid that in the future and/ or negotiate a higher rate now? Or, is the writer spending too much time writing? If so, what are some techniques to expedite the craft?
