There’s also the Files app too that Apple added that does give you a filesystem view, where you can tap files to have them opened in their associated application.

The thermals and battery life of my Apple silicon MacBooks are unlike any other laptop I’ve owned. When I first got one, I started thinking of recharging it not in hours, but in days. 3-4 days between charges was normal for typical use. Mind you that was not full workdays, but the standby time was so good that I didn’t have to consider that the battery would decrease overnight or in my bag. I’ve used multiple Dell, Thinkpad, and Intel Mac laptops over the past decade as well and none of them come within spitting distance on battery life and thermals. I really hope that Qualcomm can do for other manufacturers what Apple silicon has done for MacBooks.

Legitimate repairability and pricing concerns aside, what parts exactly are you accusing of being straight from the dumpster? The GPU is insane for a low-power laptop, screen, speakers, trackpad are best in class. Keyboard is a matter of preference but by any objective measure it’s not bad, much improved from butterfly switches.

It requires that you make available the full source code to anyone who you give binaries too (like the GPL), but also requires you make available that source to users of the software over a network. So, someone could not make a proprietary fork of AGPL software to sell exclusively as a service. In order to provide that service you have to also be willing to provide the source, including changes, which would allow users to then choose to run that service themselves instead of being forced to pay the provider.

No, but also don’t go around arresting people for political reasons to be used as bargaining chips. The circumstances surrounding his arrest are suspicious, with an interpol notice not being issued until the day after, for financial crimes. The US then fought for his extradition, against concerns from the UN’s human rights committee, and then ultimately dropped the charges due to a lack of evidence, but kept him in prison. Finally, he’s been released in a prisoner swap because he’s not a threat to anyone, just a political bargaining chip for the US to play against Venezuela when the time is right.

The US government arresting foreign nationals like this ultimately endangers Americans who travel abroad. Other governments at odds with the US have to arrest US citizens to use as bargaining chips to get their own people back in prisoner swaps like this. It ruins lives and could be avoided if the US didn’t go around trying to play world policeman.

As far as free software goes, how does running free software on your own server that you allow others to communicate with using established standard protocols violate your freedom? Not saying you shouldn’t be able to be selective about federation, but why would Facebook specifically being one of the peers violate your freedom?

If Lemmy gets support for multi-communities and we can use flibpoard magazines as communities in lemmy, that would be incredible!

I think the key to avoiding the google chat trap again is that the private company needs to have way more to lose than to gain by killing federation. If a critical mass of flipboard’s users use it through ActivityPub, then ending that would hugely damage their business. Flipboard may be both large enough to bring a significant I flux of users and content into the fediverse, but small enough, especially if the federate with threads, to not be overwhelming.

SBF hasn’t been in the headlines as much recently.

I mean I think part of this is that the technology is reaching a point where emotion is actually reasonably emulatable.

Yeah for any sort of interviews I’d rather they kept the current convention of using a voice over, often after a 1-2 second clip of the original audio. It’s obvious that it’s a translation done by the media and not the exact original words of the source

Even the non-pros have OLED. I think it’s any iPhone with FaceID.

Does destroying basic sanitization infrastructure in a dense city, inevitably causing outbreak of various diseases, count?

I mean, is a major highway in the second largest city of the primary colonial sponsor a bad place? I guess if we had free teleportation they might find marginally better success in DC or Tel Aviv, but if you’re located in LA I can see why you’d choose to protest there and not somewhere else.

Idk why you’re being downvoted. I’ve tried Orion browser and it really does work. I assumed extensions like that would go against Apple’s App Store policies but they’ve seemed to make it works so far.

There is Firefox for iOS. It uses WebKit like every other browser.

A $10 dongle is gonna be a lot better than limiting yourself to the obscure few phones that still have a headphone jack. They make ones that allow you to play and charge too, useful especially in cars.

A non-disruptive protest just gets ignored. You need to impact people’s daily lives to make them think why the problem arose in the first place.

If Google tried to kill Android, there’d be a handful of companies that would keep it going. I could see Samsung doing so, possibility in partnership with Microsoft, but I bet it would be the end of AOSP.
