My laptop has all my contacts, calendar, access to all my photos and is regularly used for online banking. It does not have cellular but I could buy one that does. So your list applies to a laptop just the same.
Right. And also you can never take that threat seriously when Russia is using it while on the offensive, because following that logic you should let them do whatever they want because nukes.
Hah I played twice and did not meaningfully inprove my score. Even after seeing the color I could not match it up close enough, and the first time I got pretty close to most colors.
Its not just vulnerabilities. In theory you should also get more stability.
For example I like to play Civ with a friend, but stopped because about once every 30 minutes one of us would have their game crash. If it was written in Rust, I assume it might be more stable.
Sure, but that sounds like an awful business strategy. I would imagine people who have been burned by google dropping support being less likely to use new google products in the future
Radical transparancy only works in a world of radical acceptance. I deliberately hide some stuff I do from some people not because it is shady but because it will impact their view of me in a negative way.
> Since the EU has suggested that Facebook cannot charge for an Ad-free tier.
That is not my understanding. They have suggested that you can not offer an Ad-free tier as the way to not have your personal data used for advertising. Fb can offer an ad free tier, but in the tier with ads you need to be able to run off personalization of the ads.
Why not? Common characters are easier to type and presumbly if you are using regex on a unicode string they might include these special characters anyway so what have you gained?
I don't know the details about VATMOSS but will look into it. I agree that chat control and the initial thing about software security not having a FOSS exemption were problematic. As far as I know, an exemption for FOSS authors was added.
I think it is important to acknowledge that many regulations are not perfect and I would push for more revisions on the details (although changes in the law also have a real cost associated) that don't hit their target.
I agree that EU laws are far from perfect, but I 100% would rather have the GDPR than not have it.
With AI what I saw in the news mostly made sense and did not hinder development too much. But again I would rather they regulate the use because it will have real negative consequences for many people if they don't
It is an issue, there is not enough choice. I don't want apple so I buy an android but android is also flawed in major ways. There is just no winning as a consumer.
It is not open source. But because you are just editing markdown, you should not get locked in (however it does have some features and plugins that will not work anywhere else...)
