I looked up my old character just the other day—my account must had been compromised because all of my gear was gone.

I could totally see myself going back to play again and pick up where I left off (after 18 years), but I don’t think that’s possible anymore.

I’m no fan of google, but I don’t see how it could be expected to act as the insurer for people who have fallen victim to social-engineering gift card scams.

It would be a pretty crazy precedent if the judge ruled differently.

I hope this frees up time to invest more time in a passion project for himself. I want nothing but contentment for that guy.

They’re gonna need a lot of rice for this one…

Did you hide any apps in iOS 18?

I’m wondering if the UI wouldn’t show the name of a hidden app…

Working from the definition of sociopathy, I think you could substitute “AI” in a few spots and end up with a nearly equally-accurate definition of AI:

A sociopath is someone with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), a mental health condition that involves a lack of regard for others’ feelings and rights. People with ASPD may: Lack empathy and remorse Manipulate others for personal gain Behave impulsively or aggressively Break rules or laws Feel little guilt for harming others Seem charming at first Have difficulty understanding others’ feelings

Sooooo…the next update to AI is sociopathy:

Because AIs don’t share common human values like fairness or justice — they’re just focused on the goal they’re given — they might go about achieving their goal in a way humans would find horrifying.

Good. The benefit outweighs the cost by a huge margin.

You might see a few butt-hurts nerd-raging over self-repair, but the problem associated with worldwide stolen phones and Frankenstein iPhone units is a much bigger issue than a few insulated incels wanting to self-repair their iPhones.

No one is getting stabbed in a subway station over self-repair.

(And that’s all based on the assumption it may impact self-repair, it’s still in beta)

The post title was Where’s the lie?.

I suppose this meme just highlights a lie of omission for not clarifying that they’re both pro-genocide—except the racist dude has publicly said there hasn’t been nearly enough genocide.

In Memmy in iOS, it seems to “fit to screen”—meaning it shows the entire image with large black pillarboxing on either side.

This isn’t a big deal.

If you’re developing in Xcode, you did not buy an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years.

If you are just using your Mac for Facebook and email, I don’t think you know what RAM is.

If you know what RAM is, and you bought an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years, then you are likely self-aware of your limited demands and/or made an informed compromise.

Does your amp support CEC? If so, you could make sure it is turned on for both ATV and the amp and just use the “HDMI” setting in the ATV settings.

Also, just to confirm—in the ATV’s remote>volume control settings, do you have it set to control the receiver via IR?

I have two MegaBoom 2’s—one is a complete champ, the other has very short battery life at this point.

They both work for my needs—the short battery one is in my bathroom and I leave it plugged in now.

The other one just floats around the house and gets a decent amount of use from my kids, who may or may not be slightly older than the speakers themselves.

The fact that they both work and only one has noticeably degraded battery life is surprising.

You can 100% continue to purchase content and add to your library. Just because the apps have split (as they already have on Apple’s own platforms), does not mean you can not download purchased content or continue to purchase new content for download.

Buy music from the iTunes Store If you don’t subscribe to Apple Music and you want to add your favorite songs or albums, you can buy and download music from the iTunes Store. And if you previously purchased items from the iTunes Store, you can download them to your authorized computers and devices (up to 10 total).

Again, you are assuming too much.

In the first link I provided:

So they are getting rid of digital downloads. Terrible news

They are not getting rid of downloads.
