“Do no harm to the stockholders” would be the contemporary take.
The irresponsible pitbull owners mindset right there.
I’ve got intelligible but that’s about it
That’s ok. So do I.
Performing sufficiently for cheap production cost, they’d be a low RISC high reward investment.
I have a supposedly smart washing machine that came with the apartment. Setting it up in my locked down appliances network, it didn’t work with home-assistant, required cloud access and wanted me to open up ports in the firewall. Nope. No network connection for you. You are a regular dumb old washing machine.
It’s done by overriding the document.onrightclick and the selection start something function in the browser. Reset it and you’re done.
I know this because of a manufacturers website that does this. So incredibly annoying when the only reason anybody would want to copy from their webbo is for reference of their own products. In my case the product numbers to search for where to buy it.
Some time ago I had a fever dream confusing reality thing and when I woke up I had reason with myself that “no, I can’t run a program in my brain”. I couldn’t decide if it was a disappointment or a relief.
Change your password. Change all your important passwords.
Indeed I could, but this is the boring job you have the paid employees for rather than putting it on users to ensure a stable version of your product. .
Yeah, it’s totally a fun feature driven project reliant on community efforts despite there is a commercial venture behind it nowadays. The core devs still treat it as their baby hobby project and nobody wants to do the boring job of maintaining a stable branch so it’s not going to happen.
Some while ago I saw another discussion on this topic that was shot down with the opposing arguments that all users have to do is stay up date with the latest version, while also saying that users are at fault for things breaking because they update when a notification tells them that there is a new latest version.
I think it’s arrogant and irresponsible and a ticking time bomb for a big time bug or zero day exploit and not how any serious project should be administered.
I wish I could have Linus Torvalds give his colorful opinion on this mindset on developing the operating system for peoples homes.
Every time I read of issues like this, I so much wish ha devs could be bothered to complement the rolling release as it is today with a quarterly “stable” branch that gets all the bug fixes and patches but none of the monthly new features.
The stable branch could lag 3 months in features, it doesn’t matter with latest features when all you want is a recently patched and updated system that runs your house without going bzzpth.
It’s only there to make the other ones look cheap.
I’m skeptical anything good will come out of it, but I’m glad if I’m wrong. Meta is about making money. The fediverse is a direct competitor to everything and anything they do. I don’t think Meta is interested in integrating with the fediverse. I think they want to dominate the fediverse. But that’s just me.
As long you are ok with them putting meat in the fridge and buying non vegan clothes etc, it probably wouldn’t be a problem then. If they are reasonable people.
It is a problem in the relationship if it is a problem for you that they are not vegan.
Get a partner that is good as they are, not a fixer upper with potential. Nobody likes it when somebody tries to change them.
Yep. The self regulating market is either utopian vision by blind idealists or double speak for maximizing profits and fucking over anybody and anything while doing it.
Among the four disputed patents is one concerning improvements that reduces the number of steps – and thereby overall delay – when transmitting an uplink package; a Wireless Wake-On-LAN Power Management technique; an invention that allows a user to initiate a diagonal scroll at any location by using two fingers; and a hinge block that enables a laptop to convert to a tablet.
Welp, I guess Lenovo goes on my black list too then.
You know how social media copy each other?
Meta has dived in head first to beat X.
Just a friendly reminder for anybody confused that there has been no pet eating by scary pigmenterad people. It was all make believe pulled from floppy racist arses.
