Looks like everything is essentially in the same spot UI wise, but with a native application that hopefully gets moving a lot faster.

I’ve noticed that currently on Bitwarden, for auto fill it takes 6-7 seconds just to get authenticated with fingerprint and fill in the username and password field. That should hopefully be down to like 2 or 3 seconds.

Does anyone know yet if long COVID is an auto-immune disease? I only assume it is but otherwise don’t know.

That’s what the ‘Lockdown’ feature on Pixel phones does.

Impossible to force a fingerprint or face scan because it asks the phone to only accept passcodes.

I do see it as a potential problem with moderation on Lemmy’s end. You have all of the users from Threads interacting with Lemmy and Kbin users. It’s possible there’s an influx of accounts on here that are trolling, and it becomes unmanageable to moderate everything on Lemmy’s side.

But Threads will have no problems with content moderation.

I travelled recently, and was filled with disgust when I was told to scan my boarding pass and look into the camera to get in line. I would have asked to go through an alternative line but didn’t want to miss my flight.

What the fuck is wrong with people

It’s possible competition will just recognize their advantage and pay workers more to get that step ahead.

I read somewhere that they will still be green. It’s confirmed by Apple as well.

The reason they’re moving forward with this is because if Apple tries to sue, it could make a case for Google that Apple is trying to take control of messaging in the United States. If they don’t sue, should Google come after them down the line Apple can say “we’re aware of 3rd party iMessage and decided to not take action to increase interoperability” yadda yadda.

That’s my guess anyway.

You’re not wrong. And unless the controllers have some sort of TPM module in them then yeah they’ll be easily bypassed.

Given that Xbox is a closed console, couldn’t they just have rootkit anticheat by default?

Maybe I’m stuck in the past but it still seems as if consoles still don’t employ anticheats.

I hope this isn’t a “Net Neutrality, oh and we’ll also spy on you for the good of humanity” bill

I mean yeah you’re not wrong. If only the Surface wasn’t so absurdly overpriced for what you get.

From a security perspective, as long as you check the hash against Microsoft’s website then it should be okay. Otherwise I’m not sure where to get Windows on ARM ISO’s from.

Here’s an archive of all Windows updates and builds. This query is for arm64.

Already does?

Windows on ARM is a thing, and it does x64 and x86 translation.

The chips likely also have hardware to accelerate translation as well, to compete with M1 and M2 chips.

This is what I believe Google is actually trying to get carriers to do, and I suspect carriers (in some shape or form) will actually do this, just not in the way you think.

RCS will eventually become the dominant messaging standard, however, I think they’re actually working on a backwards compatibility for SMS and MMS in some capacity. In this way, phones (like the iPhone or older Android phones) will still be capable of sending and receiving SMS and MMS in typical elitist walled-garden fashion, but the carrier will receive it as an RCS message and relay it to an RCS-compatible device as an RCS message.

In this way, group chats with four Android users and two iPhone users will still allow those Android users to benefit from RCS from each other (typing indicators, reactions, potentially some level of E2E, support for large media, etc), while the iPhones in the group chat will actually be the ones having a negative experience (no typing indicators, reactions appearing as text messages, no E2E, obnoxious green bubbles) since Apple refuses to integrate RCS into their Messaging application. Of course Apple will continue to gaslight their customers through high contrast green bubble dark patterns, and continued refusal of adopting RCS or creating iMessage for Android. As they’ve made clear, they don’t care about giving their customers the best possible experience, and prefer to maintain market control for as long as possible.

The #GetTheMessage ads are likely gearing up for the eventuality of this change, and the Pixel x iPhone ads are all “buddy buddy, kill them with kindness” so they can out Apple as the hostile ones when they refuse to acknowledge the existence of other smartphones either through its aggressive marketing, or through refusal to adopt open standards.

If this were all to happen, depending on how well the RCS backwards compatibility worked and its ability to out Apple as the shut ins that they are, I could (crazy talk) foresee Apple creating a standalone iMessage app to, at the very minimum, keep Android users talking within their iMessage ecosystem.

Price of WD red HDD’s about to go up too

Seems like the timing is a little off on the third criminal investigation.

Developers, developers?

Don’t like the commute - pick a different job or move, you’re an adult who can make these decisions.

Well yeah, that’s what’s happening. That’s what sparked this debate.

People ARE leaving their jobs for other organizations that allow work from home, getting paid more in some instances too.

If a competing business can’t offer more than what the same work from home jobs are offering for the same position, work from home will win every time. Just like you said, it’s business. Supply and demand, in a tidy work offer contract based on what is agreed upon.
