It allows stupid people to have a community where they feel smart, and that they know something most people don’t.

I bet that’s not something they are used to

They still do their bloated framework and launcher outside the US.

And then they start scanning your files, for your safety and “the children”. Find something they don’t like. Might even be perfectly legal, and close your account. Because AI…

Puff, gone are your files and you have zero way to appeal.

There is NO cloud… only someone else’s computer…

Wouldn’t Netflix’s password sharing fall under the same law then?

They use user information like connected wifi and position data to determine if a device is used away from the defined “home”.

As long as they can keep people on the platform, they keep the cash from the app store flowing.

I’m stunned with how bad it was and why they hell they didn’t use the same strategy that made Windows popular… The apps.

My work back then gave me a Windows Phone. Very few of the apps I had on my Android phone was available for my work phone.

On top of that a lot of things simply didn’t work. One thing I still remember was that Alarm volume and Ring tone volume could not be adjusted individually.

The whole thing felt like they wanted to reinvent the wheel and started from absolute scratch without learning from the innovation in the past decade of mobile phones.

It’s sad, a third competitor in the smartphone space wouldn’t have been a bad thing.

Removed by mod

Haha, no.

It seems like they are going out of their way to remove good features. Like they removed the option to right click the taskbar and open task manager. They since added it back, but only because of user demand.

They have removed quick access to disabling the network, seeing and changing ip settings.

I can’t remember all the annoying issues, but there’s a lot.

I hate that it has become a general thing to ruin user experience and possibilities of customization. Google is doing the same with android.

And you “own” it only as long as they deem it. https://nofilmschool.com/warner-bros-deleting-purchased-digital-content

No no, religion is bullshit, sooo methane?

Imagine the trauma from endless loops of dad jokes from their fathers themselves.

On the bright side, he should have all the time in the world to code, after going to prison.

Realized?? They knew all the time, and didn’t give a shit.

It’s more likely that they have pushed too far, and users are pushing back. They will dial it back a bit, and hope people forget.

One of the techniques is called buffer overflow. Where you target a flaw in some software. Computers are logic, they will do EXACTLY what you tell them. Imagine if an image viewer uses an dll to process jpg. That dll expects a very specific header. If this is not handled correctly and a malicious attacker crafts the header to be slightly larger and the larger part contains executable code. This code spills over in the adjacent memory area. The OS then reads this as code to run… and boom you are in.

This is oversimplified and proberly not explained correctly, but its something like that; and that kids, is why its important to update your OS and software.

Sometimes they find bugs like this, that have existed for many years before being discovered.

Maybe, there’s still important questions. Will it scale? Preliminary tests only transfered mA’s before the super conductivity breaks down. So can you layer the material to get higher amps? Will cables have to be made in one continuous part or will the super conductivity work across joined cables

British people do…

Nah, at that time AudioGalaxy was in full spring and I was rocking the MZ-R30 Minidisc walkman.
