Unix and Linux are terms that can and have been used a bit interchangeably in the past already. It’s possible that their UNIX category is just named like that from way back in the day. If internet speed and data limits are not a concern it may be worth a shot to try if the UNIX version works on your system. Simply because Linux is UNIX based but not officially certified as UNIX.
I dunno… This might be a good read though:
But do they understand the gravity of that discovery?
From a technical standpoint it doesn’t matter which way something gets polarised. Trouble is that some manufacturers do it one way and others the other way. Which means that it’s not standardized. Having it be mandatory to do it one way and one way only for a given product would solve that issue because then it would be correct every time. Barring the one or other Monday where someone for some reason messes it up before noticing.
It would certainly raise an eyebrow.
For more reasons than just the obvious ones.
No I don’t want to go into the details of those hypotheticals, thank you.
My favourite is probably warm but not crazy hot, slight breeze and just cloudy enough so that the sun isn’t burning you to a crisp. Makes for a nice time to relax or work outside. Also means that the horses are happy and don’t need to drink tons of water.
I mean… Just look at the news. We don’t have to imagine it because that is what is going on.
There were some rather in detail answers already to which I could add. But instead I am going with a more simple answer that is hopefully also good.
Basically, bad actors want to stay undetected if possible. Like staying in dark places with dark clothing and not making noise. trying to get your own subdomain is more like wearing a high Vis jacket, having Christmas lights on you and broadcasting your presence with a loudspeaker with something like “catch me if you can!” on repeat.
Or even simpler: getting detected is bad for bad actors, doing that is one great way to get detected, they know that so they don’t do that.
Or metaphorically: a drop of water in the ocean won’t get noticed, rain in the desert will.
At the end of the day it’s not about what you can do but if you should do that.
Right. AI music? Hopefully not, it is likely going to lead to generic slop that may infringe on other artists copyright. AI Podcasts? OH GOD NO! factual news isn’t working with AI and you guys think that opinions with AI is a good idea? Are you crazy?
Now music recommendations? That might just work given that algorithms are already doing a decent job at presenting new ( to the particular user, not by actual age) music that the user may enjoy. The question really is if that is actually better than what we already have. And there is only one way to find out, which is by testing it and then being honest about it.
Arguably. The worst part about that is that you don’t get to know how that story ends…
The hottest year on record… So far.
Probably 5 minutes or so. 10 if I include the time spent driving there. Usually it’s quiet enough that it’s not waiting in line but rather waiting to have everything sorted out.
Come on… Shitty safety measures have never, ever, in the history of mankind led to catastrophic events with a lasting fallout. -some government that collapsed
After all after some point safety is just pure waste of money. -some dead CEO
It doesn’t take enshittification for something real bad to happen. All it takes is time. Add the mentioned enshittification and corner cutting and we know for sure what will happen…
Or how the saying in EvE online goes : it’s not a question on if your ship gets blown up but a question of when it gets blown up.
He’s so boned… Done goofed up now!
Cool. But I can’t help the fact that it feels like a potential security risk to me. It is not unknown just how low they can stoop to get their way so I would expect that to be no different there.
Now that’s one shit experiment to figure something specific out.
I do give a shit, and at this point I want to see that platform taken down for good. Because otherwise it’s a platform for nefarious shit and abuse. And no one needs that. Especially not the gullible.
Everyone else could just say :" the rules say… But you don’t give a fuck about the rules so we won’t do that either. Get dumped…" And then just exclude him everywhere and revoke their access and all that. But that is unlikely to happen for reasons. But they could…
That’s unfortunate then. But it was worth a shot anyways. If nothing else you learned a bit about UNIX/ Linux should you ever find yourself in a situation where that may be of use again.
