Can someone help me understand: marketplace makers will need to prove they have access to $ 1 million. Then Apple will charge 50 cents per marketplace install? So that means no possibility of a 100% free store for open source apps. Is that correct?

LazaroFilm ,
@LazaroFilm@lemmy.world avatar

If that’s the case, then it really defeats the purpose of the whole 3rd party store idea for me. Most apps I would consider installing are open source projects.

Another alternative is SideStore which allows to refresh apps from your phone without a computer. Just a WiFi connection. It has the benefit of working with any ios versions including the latest ones that TrollStore doesn’t support.

Oh you pay with google. Just not with money but with your personal data. Google, you’re not the client, you’re the product.

@LazaroFilm@lemmy.world avatar

I mean if you go that route. You can jailbreak an iPhone and lost any app you want. But that’s not the conversation you’re looking to have is it?

LazaroFilm ,
@LazaroFilm@lemmy.world avatar

But for that stance of a lambda user? Both seem equally difficult. At that level I’d rather pay extra and not have my data sold to the highest bidder.

In the meantime you can use SideStore to side load two apps on your iOS device. Down side you need to open the SideLoad once a week and renew access to your side loaded apps.

@LazaroFilm@lemmy.world avatar

Look into SideStore. It allows two apps to be sideloaded for free with app refresh without a computer.

@LazaroFilm@lemmy.world avatar

AltStore requires you to have a the AltServer opened on your Mac and your phone on the same WiFi to refresh. SideStore is branched off AltStore but allows to renew and install apps right from your iPhone (you only need a computer for the first install of SideStore iOS app, or if you to re-activate if you go past the renew date). I had AltStore before and SideStore is much easier to deal with imo.

That’s so messed up! Apple come on don’t be a douche!

On iPhone you can only install an app via AppStore. Side loading is the act of installing an app without the AppStore (with a different store, or by sending a file from your computer… it allows to install apps that Apple doesn’t want on their store for various reasons like a retro game emulator to play Super Nintendo on your phone.

LazaroFilm ,
@LazaroFilm@lemmy.world avatar

Yes. I use SideStore which allows you to renew the app right on your phone without a computer but it’s limited to 3 apps and one is SideStore so really only two sideloaded apps.

So now they need to pull their phones out to see themselves. That’s totally logical.

Scientists Use WiFi to See Through People's Walls (www.popularmechanics.com)

“We developed a deep neural network that maps the phase and amplitude of WiFi signals to UV coordinates within 24 human regions. The results of the study reveal that our model can estimate the dense pose of multiple subjects, with comparable performance to image-based approaches, by utilizing WiFi signals as the only input.”

Except the strikes already drained our resources. I’m a camera operator, our union was not on strike but we were equally impacted by the strikes. Our contract is up for negotiation this year. I can’t afford another strike. I’m already looking for work outside the film industry. What we need is to align the renewal of all entertainment union contracts so we all strike together at the same time.

not selling out should be a good thing. It means they produced enough to match the demand. Selling out means they failed to estimate the demand or their supply chain failed.

Yep. I released a new product last month and sold out! I sold 3.

My Roku TV is basically unusable at this point. Opening Netflix takes about 10 minutes to get to the main menu. Then launching the video is like rolling a D12. Except it lands on a 1 every time and crashes. It also restarts randomly for “updates” in the middle of watching something. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it!

LazaroFilm ,

It was working fine then an update made it this way.

I do not want to be measured as an investment but as a customer.

Is It Worth The Time? XKCD 1205 updated for open source and shared tools. (lemmy.world)

People often ask why I contribute to open source projects or otherwise work on building automated tooling. They see me spending hours to automate a task or fix a bug that take seconds to do or avoid manually, in a way that the original XKCD comic says won't pay off. The disconnect seems to be that the comic and those people only...

Plus it would create a precedent that you can patent troll Apple and they pay up.

Given the size of the bus you could fit a huge ass battery in there.

If I can’t wait=Amazon next day, then return when the AliExpress one arrives.

It feels more iffy than AliExpress. I got a series of items from Remy that were technically the description but at the lowest quality possible to qualify. AliExpress refund system has been solid for me.
