Well, if republican politicians and catholic priests are any guide, this means Kutcher and Moore are almost certainly prolific child abusers.

EDIT: oh FFS, their org is THORN?!? The same group of wine mommies trying to destroy the internet with that awful and mislabeled “kids online safety act”?

Fuck them AND their parent-pandering bullshit. Scientologists are nasty business.

I too have played the disappointed and befuddled architecture evangelist. The counter-argument that inevitably ended these conversations was: “This is a business. We make money by getting stuff out the door. Demonstrate how the time it would take to rework this code base would correspond to an increase in profits, then we can talk about how your time and people budget is impossible to justify.”

“Pretty behind the scenes” doesn’t make any difference when you’re focused on getting people to build you a moneymaking machine as fast and cheap as possible.

I think the headline is framing this wrong. Apple is not threatening to kill these services.

Apple is refusing to break their services just to accommodate broken, stupid laws written by a broken, stupid parliament.

Ironically, you cannot find out if your car is affected unless you’re willing to share your VIN with the helpful folks at privacy4cars.com

So, since I don’t own a model specifically listed in the story and I value my privacy …

Edit: I was wrong, they would much rather I download their helpful app and use that software they’re implanting on my PHONE to help me re-assert my right to privacy 🤡

Yay! Another enshittified product to replace with a federated one! @funkwhale here I come …

How do I make a link in this crazy thing?

It seems comments and posts behave differently. Or maybe it’s because I’m on mobile?

Update:

Thanks to everyone who reached out, fediDB.org and fediverse.info will remain online going forward.

I’m not going anywhere either, though I think I need a break from the fediverse for a few days.

Ayup. Or rather, that’s the most recent of it; I don’t have historical background.

The number of photos I’ve seen of completely melted filament rolls, due to either poor oven thermostats or inattentive users … I cannot endorse this technique.

If you’re on a budget, probably better to just power up your heated bed, with a box over top, and dry your spool inside there.

Repurposed food dehydrators seem to rate highly, if you can find a used one for cheap.

I ended up biting the $40 bullet and grabbing a Filadryer S2 when it was on sale.
