Also for Australian users.

Edit: Hmm, it’s the search results for “Lake Ontario” that return “Lake America” spam, the underlying map currently shows “Lake Ontario” here in Australia.

Hmm … “escaping” … you mean like say an internet worm or a virus?

Can’t wait to hear the next startup venture capital pitch:

“We’re like the Ghostbusters of AI”

Anyone remember “Microsoft Works”?

(It didn’t)

The post was talking about streaming, not cable TV.

Simple solution. Stop paying ESPN.

Whenever I see the word “OpenAI”, I substitute it with “my cat” and the world makes a little more sense.

For example:

‘Apple is getting this wrong,’ says my cat — startup blasts iPhone maker over lawsuit alleging it stole confidential information through ex-Apple employees

Why not gesture navigation?

I’ve never gotten my head around it, but if the vanishing buttons annoy me enough, I might have to make the change.

Lineage os?

Unfortunately, my phone is not on the supported hardware list.

I discovered a Nokia X20 part of the Android One program, that has native Android on it. I loved it so much, I bought a second one, even though my first is still going strong.

Two issues, no more OS updates. I’m stuck on Android 14, and there’s a weird bug with the navigation buttons vanishing from time to time.

Not a recommendation as such, more that there are phones that run unadulterated Android.

We bought exactly one Samsung Android device, that attempted to force us to use Samsung tools for:

• app store
• email
• contacts
• calendar
• internet browsing
• calculator
• chromecast

I’m pretty sure that there were more.

We won’t ever buy a Samsung Android device again.

It’s a big list. Very pretty.

Which of those entries can actually be trusted? I’m asking because so far I’ve seen no evidence in any Android development of a chain of trust.

How do you know for example that these ROMs aren’t riddled with spyware, exploits or info-stealers?

We’re going to need a lot of popcorn.

I figured that a good percentage of the delivery robots would simply “disappear” from the map and be rebirthed as battle bots in some arena with chainsaw accessories.

If it’s free, you’re the product.

Unbreakable Encryption … so … Snake Oil then?

… and Microsoft Windows continues its unbroken winning streak as the best advocate for migrating to Linux …

I miss my Centronics port.

This is GOLD!

I’ve seen way worse supplier fuckups happen in multiple other industries…

Like?

Over the years I’ve seen people in high profile roles resign in protest, but I’ve never understood it. I still don’t.

Is the whole point to bring attention to an issue and then what, hope for the best?

Is it not being able to look at yourself in the mirror and resigning with extra steps?

Is it a public dummy spit?

How does resigning actually fix something, or is that not a consideration?

As I said, I don’t understand.

Anyone?
