Just your typical internet guy with questionable humor
At least in Brazil, there’s been 2 cases that ended up in the news, with 13-15yo boys making and sharing said AI nudes and porn of the girls in their classrooms (https://www.em.com.br/gerais/2023/11/6652005-pornografia-infantil-com-uso-de-ia-em-escola-de-bh-e-investigado-pela-policia.html PTBR)
This also happened to Spanish girls of Almendrajelo.
What a weird way to start a religion
As I said in my comment, a better solution would be a law instead of a court case. Even if it sets a precedent, it still leaves all the legal wiggle room needed for Apple, or anyone else, to fuck around in a different manner and get back in the same spot again.
Ops, Romanian, yeah. The country name’s “Romenia” in Portuguese and I forgot it was different in English
According to the article, the main points are:
Disrupting “super apps” that encompass many different programs and could degrade “iOS stickiness” by making it easier for iPhone users to switch to competing devices
Blocking cloud-streaming apps for things like video games that would lower the need for more expensive hardware
Suppressing the quality of messaging between the iPhone and competing platforms like Android
Limiting the functionality of third-party smartwatches with its iPhones and making it harder for Apple Watch users to switch from the iPhone due to compatibility issues
Blocking third-party developers from creating competing digital wallets with tap-to-pay functionality for the iPhone
The enforcers are asking the court to stop Apple from “using its control of app distribution to undermine cross-platform technologies such as super apps and cloud streaming apps,”
I’m somewhat conflicted. As much as I despise Apple, they have complete rights on their operating systems and thus can tell what they want or don’t want there, kinda like how videogame consoles work. Far from ideal for both consumers and developers, obviously, especially with how Apple hates both.
As a court case, this sounds dumb and likely to go nowhere. If it was a law proposal that would force them and any future wannabes to open up like PCs, however, I’d be fully behind it.
And “no physical keyboards”
Hello, allow me to sell you more reasons why you’re miserable for only USD 9.99, and this amazing course on how you can stop being miserable for only USD 199.99, down from USD 999.99!!
Reminds me of a post I saw yesterday, of a white supremacist finding out the german catholic descendants in red 'murica don’t share his ass-backwards views of race.
Maybe Friedrich Gauss could make better use of that, dude was a real genius.
Depends on which modern language we’re talking. If it’s italian or romenian, they’d likely manage to work that “filthy” latin into “proper” latin. Greek might also work. Portuguese, spanish and french would require a LOT of work with native speakers and I suspect german and english would completely fail, “Why in Jupiter’s dangling balls these barbarians keep changing the sound of the fucking vowels???”
Carved into stone. So you’re sending them a literal mountain
I like to imagine giving a big World Atlas of some sort to any seafaring culture around 500AD would result in interesting consequences, possibly with it becoming a real treasure. Maps are like pictures and valuable even if the places’ names can’t be understood
People still do nowadays, especially when you can cherrypick bible passages with special numbers
It definitely was a spam bot. Thankfully it’s been banned already - @ThuleanPerspective@eviltoast.org
There is a mobile version of Call of Duty, for what it’s worth (not much).
Good thing Roblox exists nowadays. It’s not a coal mine, but there’s lots of exploitative child labor there!
Is that the first step to becoming Geezer Butler? Or do you have to be butler first?
If you survive, it does make for some good stories
Pretty sure he’d only wonder what he did “wrong” during his years in charge, if the book doesn’t dive into that detail, and try something different. He’d probably feel even more infatuated with his idea of “glorious aryan german nationalism” if the book mentions, even by passing, that the werhmacht quickly beat France into submission.
