I wonder if it’ll become a moral action to learn a bit more about how to make art unassisted.


The Supreme Court is taking up a case on whether Paramount violated the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) by disclosing a user’s viewing history to Facebook. The case, Michael Salazar v. Paramount Global, hinges on the law’s definition of the word “consumer.”


I’d agree security needs more attention when developing protocols and products, and I’d also consider Bluetooth simple. That being said, I know plenty of folks that don’t like the Bluetooth pairing process, especially those without a technical background.
Fast Pair is really convenient, and I’d say it can open the door for a lot of new experiences, but I do wish the developers put more effort into their TARA.


They don’t have active noise cancelling.


All the more reason to use my IEMs… At least when I’m not flying.


Great job C BS News
For the Google-specific stuff, maybe just use a different browser that supports it? My current approach is multiple browsers, but minimize Google/Chromium as much as possible.


Will need multiple semesters for that shit.


That’s good to hear! Cosmic looks really great, but I’m gonna have to wait since the laptop is meant to be a personal machine for my partner to use.


If the XML standard is overly complex, does that mean it’ll be a bigger pain for MS employees to maintain? Sounds like cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face.


I installed it on my old laptop. I’m happy it’s breathing new life into it, but the Pop_Shop is SO SLOW.


The best they can do is probably close their Canadian/Mexican plants if the losses are too great, which would increase unemployment in those areas for not only the automotive factories, but also the ones for the automotive suppliers. Even if a Chinese company swoops in to buy the factories, it’d take time to set things up.


Cheap USBs mean cheap read/writes.


Makes me think of the episode of Batman Beyond called “Shriek.”


If you’re going on a long road trip, yes.
Yeah for the same price as the color option you could get a Garmin Vivoactive on a sale.


I figured it was related to the hardware architecture, but I’m curious if this is for security reasons (potential exploits that the OS can’t resolve) and/or just a support bandwidth concerns managing 2 OS code bases (on top of the obvious revenue from new licenses).
If the hardware security isn’t the issue, then switching to Linux is a good money saving choice for those that are tech savvy.


It’s usually to promote business investments in their state as opposed to general trade. There are plenty of governors that do that from both political parties.
The governor of my state just went to the UAE recently to do that, and has done several other trips as well over the years. https://www.michigan.gov/whitmer/news/press-releases/2024/11/25/gov-whitmer-to-meet-with-business-leaders-and-foreign-officials-in-spain


Oh that irony would be painful.
Maybe since they own Steam, they’d cascade the ruling to games sold on their platform.
