I use the app but all my subs are done through the website. It’s nice getting notifications for new podcast episodes.
Is Apple going to try and stop this? How would they even do that short of removing the app from the App Store ? I already don’t pay for anything in any iOS apps if there’s an alternative method.
“Can” in the headline, “are developing” in the first line. I’ll believe it when I see it.
Chokepoint capitalism moreso than enshittification. Both are terms from Cory Doctorow.
The OG Galaxy S had a dope Wolfson WM8449 DAC in it. I used the Voodoo sound app to get proper drivers on it and it became the best sounding phone I ever had. It drove my 250 ohm Beyerdynamic headphones with ease.
I wonder what the energy/environmental impact is vs a traditional search.
$10 to Uber eats, so basically it’s covering fees only.
Reducing the resolution doesn’t make the beam move any less, even at 1px it would still scan and hit all the phosphors on the screen. My Viewsonic uses the entire screen regardless of resolution; if you set it to 1x1 the entire screen would be lit up. It’s not an LCD, there is no native resolution.
He’s not, I watched the video.
Considering the firearms hobbyists on YouTube are significantly more competent with a firearm than a fucking police trainer, this would improve things.
Why did you editorialize the title? They’re not banning “all gun related content”, it’s ads/sponsorships that are affected.
OP editorialized the title.
Probably have to forfeit the money on top of the fine.
Wireless isn’t a requirement and connectivity seems slow to be adopted anyhow according to this source.

If we agree that connectivity is a good thing, why has the adoption rate been so slow?
…
The first required piece is an actual connection between the device and the airplane. This connection can be wired or wireless. It’s now possible to have a wireless access point that’s dedicated to the crew. A wireless connection will need to include security capabilities so users can prove their identity to the wireless network. Let’s not forget that security must also be practical for in-service use. A wired connection is generally seen as more secure, since there has to be physical access from the flight deck, which is considered a secure domain.
iPads used as an electronic flight bag beats having a huge stack of papers to shuffle through. There’s only one disaster I’m aware of caused by an iPad, and that’s on a military Chinook. It got wedged below the pedals because they didn’t stow it as they should have.

Anyone have a summary? I don’t want to watch a video.
IMO, music isn’t getting worse. Maybe popular / radio music, but not music in general. There’s so much good music from smaller artists these days, you’ve just gotta look.
Following the trail to the real source of the 90% figure, this doesn’t appear to be a current statistic.
The success rate for the U.S.-designed Excalibur shells, for example, fell sharply over a period of months — to less than 10 percent hitting their targets — before Ukraine’s military abandoned them last year, according to the confidential Ukrainian assessments.

This also is only regarding GPS jamming, which isn’t the only method of navigation. I feel the article is exaggerating quite a bit. I have no doubt GPS jamming was quite effective a year ago, I also have no doubt the Ukrainians have adapted since then.
Source is suspect, basically some dude’s blog. I’d take this with a grain of salt.
Because it’s good to get rid of old equipment, at least from the military’s perspective. They get money for the old hardware and now can justify getting more new stuff.
I really doubt they’re listening to your microphone. Constantly uploading your audio would be noticeable in bandwidth and constantly analyzing audio on device would kill your battery - at least currently.
What this demonstrates is how good tracking by other methods is getting. You don’t need to listen to someone’s microphone when you know what they and their friends/coworkers are looking up online and likely bringing up in conversation. It’s trivial to fingerprint someone and track near everything they’re looking up online, and even if you’re privacy conscious, many of those you associate with share their contact list with every app that asks for it. This makes suggesting things your friends are looking up pretty easy. Add a bit of confirmation bias to the mix and you’ve got this “listening to the microphone” theory, because you’re not counting the number of times an ad isn’t something you’ve been recently discussing.
