The fact apple has the option to accept or deny a third party store means they get to decide what third party stores are allowed on their device. The spirit of the law that the EU punished them for would say that apple should not have any say in what the users install on their devices, similar to how Aptoide, f-droid, and other third party app stores exist on android without requiring Google’s approval. Apple is just doing all they can to comply to the smallest legal degree they can to make as much money as possible from the waiting period between EU wristslaps.

The fact apple gets to decide which app stores are allowed and which aren’t kind of defeats the point of this decentralisation attempt

You’re being slowly boiled alive, frog friend

They do make it very hard to speak about anything else

The problem is the average age increases, and you’ll have more of an elderly population, meaning barely any people actually working while a ton of people are on pensions

Fair enough, got a link to these articles? There weren’t any mentioned in the original comment

That’s 90% of a year’s revenue they could be missing out if they fixed it now, yeah

Keep in mind that it might not be related at all to zuck silencing things. Imgur, the main image hosting platform in the past decade or so, purged image uploads from non-users a couple of years ago.

Give more renewables at least the same incentives and funding oil is getting, and get more nuclear ready. Yes, nuclear is safe, look it up

I mean does this burn all copies of the “movie” in existence? Does this “remove” this project from ever being circulated and punish those who do it to the full extent of the law? Cause I don’t think so, so stop trying to liken my disapproval of word soup generation being called “art” with nazism and fascist ideology.

Also I can literally turn that point back to you, who are you to decide what is art? We’re literally Lemmy users arguing shit online, don’t try to take the high horse.

Don’t see why that’d be the case, they might focus on it being a lighter model or something that also happens to have lower specs

Some rich person who doesn’t like her family getting their money from oil and is trying to do something good instead is one if the people funding them afaik

I’d argue you can go much cheaper. Also their real competitor in terms of standalone hmds is Meta, not beyond. Beyond is a niche pc only product, not a standalone experience with social potential.

Weren’t like a lot of serial killers in the 70s and 80s doing shit like that cause of sexual frustrations? Wouldn’t being castrated basically create more of that?

“artist” implies art is being made at some point, this ain’t it

Quest 3 adoption is super high compared to where quest 1 or 2 were at years ago, the apple vision pro wasn’t meant to create mass adoption anyway, not at that price point.

Well the good thing about their licensing is that you can buy a version and stick with it in spite of whatever the parent company does, and you’re not banned from using older versions like with Adobe’s T&Cs
