Exactly, which is why I said “charging people to play pirated games” (though I suppose it was really just one game, so no plural was needed.)

Internet people: NINTENDO IS DESTROYING ALL EMULATORS raaaaaaaa

Reality: Nintendo sued exactly one emulator that was literally charging people to play pirated games

Seems about the same?

The best cheese temperature is fresh out of the refrigerator and I will die on this hill!

Agreed, most of the characters in the book are so flat, and only do things because the plot needed them to do that thing.

The Netflix series managed to make the character’s motivations seem more believable which I appreciated.

Nice! Gotta catch em all!

If only they had functional data backup and export on non-Android platforms…

Ah, you’re right! I evidently mixed up the expensive Apple accessories haha

My favorite post-Jobs keynote moment was the confused laughter when Apple triumphantly announced the price of the $699 Mac Pro wheels.

So disappointed they’re still doing the prerecorded presentations. The old live ones were so much more fun!

Seems they are aware of that problem, according to the article:

Taxis can use Market Street but Uber and Lyft can’t — an aspect of the system that even planners say has problems, since so many people use those ride-booking options, but there’s no obvious way to let them cross 10th Street without allowing all other drivers, too.

Agreed. The problem was they had planned to redo the streetscape as part of the Better Market Street initiative, but the plans fell through because the Board of Supervisors spent so much time infighting that they lost the federal funds that would have funded it:

I can finally follow ZUCC on Mastodon, at last

In keeping with the Siri brand, Apple has to make sure LLM-Siri’s underlying model is bad at everything

…does anyone actually have a stereoscopic monitor?

At this point, I feel like Apple is just playing chicken with the EU. If this isn’t “gatekeeping” (ie, the thing the DMA is supposed to prevent), then I’m not sure what would be.

I just wish Signal had better history and backup features.

Oh I wasn’t being sarcastic or anything, I think it’ll make a great addition.

This is absolutely the reason why Apple sticks with a rectangle, but that said, I’d still love to see them try for a round face.

Round faces look amazing for analog watch faces and only for that—but I’d still get one if they offered it.

You just know this is going to get mentioned at Tim Cook’s next iPhone keynote.
