Apple to allow iOS app downloads direct from websites in the EU (with restrictions), in compliance with the Digital Markets Act (www.pcmag.com)

Developers interested in distributing iOS apps on their websites also have to cross a high bar. This includes being registered or incorporated in the EU, being a member of “good standing in the Apple Developer Program for two continuous years or more,” and having an app that received “more than one million first annual...

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Join the EU.

So tesla has managed to make more than just one enemy.

What a surprise.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

What they are doing in Germany is even more than THAT bad.

At least, according to German standards. May be different according to Texas or Mexican standards :-) which don't really count here.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Who is "us"?

NeoNachtwaechter ,

but I was wondering why environmentalists of all people would push to limit electric vehicle production.

Easy: Tesla is not doing this all for the sake of the environment. And what they are doing in Brandenburg amounts to shitting into all the wells and sources of the whole region around that factory. It is not only environmentalists who are pissed.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Lithium is a heavy metal

Wrong. Lithium is one of the very lightest metals.

Lithium is a rare earth metal

Wrong. Lithium isn't rare at all.

Come on, it is the 21st century.

Nobody should assume any other reason to create such an app than to harvest and sell personal medical data.

After default password disclosed online, 1200 inmates have prison issued laptops seized by guards, threatening their ability to make class deadlines (www.opencampusmedia.org)

Zhang, an electrical engineer in Boston, decided to post about trying to unlock his Justice Tech Solutions Securebook 5 on the social platform X. The thread went viral — also catching the attention of Washington corrections officials, who have used the device for college programming since 2020....

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Nice how they call it a "Securebook" when it has a static default password.

I mean, shouldn't they better call it a "High IQ System"?

B-)

Linux market share passes 4% for first time (arstechnica.com)

We see the nearly 33-year-old OS’s market share growing 31.3 percent from June 2023, when we last reported on Linux market share, to February. Since June, Linux usage has mostly increased gradually. Overall, there's been a big leap in usage compared to five years ago. In February 2019, Linux was reportedly on 1.58 percent of...

NeoNachtwaechter ,

LOL this is not the market share of Linux.

This is the share of Linux in one certain market of web surfers.

A software license is different - when installing you click on a button saying "I agree".

Not different, because nobody knows who has installed the software.

Or even more: when I got my car, the kids were the first ones to play with the entertainment system, and they clicked many "I agree" buttons. But a kid's agreement is legally void.

Tesla has been polluting water in Germany for a long time, which is why its plant may be closed. (gadgettendency.com)

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Serious German media also have reported that and they say that they have it from the official sources.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

a success or a failure?

What a heretic question!!

Nowadays everything is a success if at least the very first countdown has begun. You need to explode way before if you want to be called a failure.

pretty sure China is the biggest EV market.

Only a market for cheap vehicles (and a few expensive ones, but they need to be large, so that you can take your luxury back seat and have your driver in front). If there's any country on the planet that really doesn't need Tesla, it's China.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Because lemmy is like a public restroom:

Anyone can, as soon as they feel the need,...

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Habe you thought about a mechanical solution, e.g. back pressure flap?

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Then I would consider this flap defective, because you are actually experiencing the bad smell.

When your own device isn't on, the flap should close and it should be (nearly) airtight.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

I would go around that hinge with a silicone cartridge, trying to close these tiny gaps - but use it sparingly, in order not to block the motion.

I would also look around it's outside, where it's mounted, if there are any possible gaps. There you can use the silicone generously.

X, Formerly Twitter, Claims Indian Govt Issued 'Executive Orders' To Act On Some Posts (www.outlookindia.com)

From what I've observed, many accounts which were critiqued to the current Modi govt have been withheld in the country. Accounts of farmer leaders were also suspended amid the ongoing farmers protest in the country. It's worth noting that India will see the general elections this year around May.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

If you want to find out, you would need to ask the people of all over the world.

Cybertruck engineer pushes back on claims that Tesla EVs rust in the rain — “It's surface contamination only and can be cleaned off easily.” (www.businessinsider.com)

NeoNachtwaechter ,

surface contamination only

That's my engineer LOL

Didn't he know that the surface is the most important part? Surface is everything!

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Never seen any rust on my stainless steel sink

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Is it 10 Gigabyte or Terabyte?

NeoNachtwaechter ,

do -- I'm trying to route all services through a Tailscale Funnel (which only provides a single domain

Seems like you have some limitation (I really don't know tailscail funnel) in your setup, and now you expect them to work around it.

HAOS assumes that you would have no need to run any other Docker services other than those that are add-ons or Home Assistant itself.

Yes, HAOS is great when you have one dedicated machine for it, for example a RPi. That's the whole purpose of HAOS, as far as I understand.

If you already have a zoo full of docker containers, then you want your Home Assistant (without HAOS) in just one more of your own containers.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

The article was also retracted after 3 days.

Scientific articles should never be retracted. Publishers should make that impossible. Scientists should have balls and be able to stand by their word.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

to have a mechanism by which to say "this was wrong. we fucked up.

Yes. But then you do not delete anything. You ADD this statement and leave the original stuff untouched, so that everybody can see afterwards what has been going on.

(Unless you want to become a politician)

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Some services, like Facebook Gaming, use web apps as a way to get around the Apple App Store and its fees.

Smell coming out from this little hole here :)

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Imagine being the boss of Kalashnikov :)

Glad to see that it was Russians who went to court for human rights.

I like that new style of headlines!

"Court to Elon" tastes so much better than the former tradition of "Elon said"

OpenAI wants to raise 5-7 trillion dollars. Yes, Trillion (decrypt.co)

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Nobody seems to recognize that madness is not in numbers, but in people.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Lots of text, but not a single piece of specific information.

NeoNachtwaechter ,

Yes, we all know that strategy.

  1. Set some unrealistic goals and talk a lot in public

  2. Fail fast

  3. Call it a success

NeoNachtwaechter ,

SpaceX does

This isn't about what the company does - only about what their shareholder says.

    What? There is some inaccurate medical information? Online even?

    So glad somebody has found out.

    ;-)

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Security and privacy are priorities

    If that is a true priority, then you do not want Android TV. (You would also be hesitant with youtube and netflix).

    NeoNachtwaechter ,

    Good question.

    For youtube, there are alternative frontends (piped etc.)

    I have no experience with the others.

    How would you like the router owners to have been alerted?

    By two men in black showing up at their doors, of course.

    why are they hiding that from us!?

    You have not read the article. It is explained there.

    Wake up people.

    This behaviour is explained there, too.

    No. Not M$ Teams was hit. All the users were hit.

    From your requirements, I am thinking about a "digital signage" device or app.
