Apple notes that off-store downloads work only inside the EU, and disappear if you stay outside the bloc for more than 30 days.

Assholes.

Some localities in Germany have been incorporating Linux into their systems for 20+ years.

That may explain why the financial benefits seem low.

It didn’t have access to add-ons.

It was my fav too. :(

I played with a couple of flavours in the early 2000s but stopped when I began university.

I ran XP for years after, Win 7 until 2.5 yrs ago, and bumped my current laptop back to 10 immediately.

Soon enough I’ll be changing it to Mint tho 'cause shit is real out there now.

Why can’t the rule be opt in instead? If I want it, I’ll find it. If I don’t I sure as hell don’t want some company telling me I must.

Gtfo with that shite.

As an aside that’s one of the major things I’ve never understood about how SCOTUS developes rulings, ie: how they use ‘original intent’ to figure out current issues.

I’ve never used ChatGPT and really have no interest in it whatsoever.

How about I just do some LSD. Guaranteed my hallucinations will surpass ChatGPT’s in spectacular fashion.

Thanks for Waterfox. Looks awesome. :)

A neutered fascist is still a fascist.

My heart pumps purple piss for fElon.

That cat was just amazing! Great flic.

I worked a job where I had to have an app that tracked me wherever I went. I finally had to tell my boss I couldn’t use it anymore because it was killing my battery in like 3 hours.

If I was still working and a job wanted me to put an app on my personal phone I’d tell them to go fuck themselves.

Just another way capitalists thieve money from its workers.

Except in the good ol’ days just about everything on the 'net benefited most of us in some way … and it was free. Now it sure as hell ain’t free and it’s been co-opted to benefit billionaires only.

I started torrenting 23 years ago and it was easy. Just a client, no VPN required. Now I need not only a VPN, but a good router that I can flash with firmware, hours of working out how best to set up the router with wireguard etc, then scroll through dozens of links to try and find a stable stream to watch hockey.

It’s fucking exhausting.

That’s the primary reason I abhor the stock market. It no longer works for the creator/owner or the customers at all. It simply feeds the greed of the wealthy (special call-out to private equity here).
