The actual fuck did they think was gonna happen? Literally everyone saw this coming except the FTC somehow I guess.

Ok but will this run on my TI-83? It’s a + model.
I think the next thing they’re gonna do is go after people who sub for a month and then unsub. Probably by charging a good bit more for month-to-month than paying annually.
Password crackdown aside, I don’t really get the appeal of the service unless you have kids or an abnormally large boner for Star Wars and MCU
For my particular niche (illustration) it has a way better concentration of active (and also importantly) high quality actual working professional artists on it than mastodon.
The art scene on mastodon is pretty meh and the largest art centric instance is run by unstable authoritarians that are some of the biggest sources of drama on mastodon.
Yeah for sure they both have their pros and cons, I’ve used both extensively. This just happens to be something that would particularly fucking infuriate me and I’m glad I don’t have to deal with it on my daily driver.
Sorta feels like someone kicking the door into your house and tacking up billboards on your walls or something.
Say what you will about Apple but I don’t have to put up with this insane shit at least on their computers. I really wonder how long they hold out on this stuff.
Pretty interesting. I’m gonna take a wild guess that most of the low level (green) jamming is just plain old electromagnetic interference?
Really curious to know what’s going on over Poland. Found this article talking about it. Seems to think Russia is responsible which I suppose isn’t a surprise.

They really have just given up on being a good search engine at this point huh?
Appreciate the insight, thanks
Huh good to know. Thanks for the details!
Really? I’ve heard it kinda sucks these days. I used to use it years back though and am a big Firefox supporter.
Ah good catch
It wasn’t publicly spoken about much from what I understand, but headsets were sent to some select developers within a month or so of the announcement. A buddy of mine was working at a company that is basically totally AR/MR focused and they had around 3 units for development purposes. Disney had to have had them even sooner because they were demoing Disney stuff right at the announcement.
I wouldn’t be totally surprised if the Apollo guy was one of them. He’s an ex Apple employee and Apollo got called out or at least shown in Apple keynotes multiple times before it shut down.
Meh. I’ve already moved on.
Yeah ditto, been working fine for me
I am surprised how many people don’t see where it’s going and hand wave away the issue. It’s going to become a lot more advanced than it already is in just a few years. This is an entirely different situation than we’ve ever experienced.
In the US it’s basically the everything store with fairly competitive pricing and very fast shipping. It’s very convenient if nothing else.
There’s a book called The Media Monopoly that details how media companies have consolidated to just a handful of mega corps and the book had to be republished 5 times since the 80s because every few years the number keeps shrinking dramatically. The author later released a brand new book called The New Media Monopoly which is essentially the 7th edition of the original book and at this point we’re in a fucked up late stage version of the problem he originally detailed.
