Photographers are it an obvious term to search for on maps. “Photo studios” sure. But event/wedding photographers are a google search not a maps search.

He’s there.

Do not worry Vestager lives for shit like this. She’ll make them bend over, take it deep, and pay her for her pleasure.

You’re close to the point but missed the elephant. The valuable thing we’re fighting over in this case is all the data collected by the cars.

Automakers lose some access when it’s Apple or Google serving the infotainment. Apple and Google also get access to this data for free.

Typo? What did I miss?

What law?

This article is such a mess. It just clobbers together talking points, speculation, and suspicion into a word salad

The MOUs in the past were a marketing steps to prevent each state from inventing a new set of rules. It worked.

Yeah - of course such “self regulation” is never as good as an advocate’s wet dream. Any law passed will also be bypassed. They will never try to build a taller wall. It’s in their business interest.

But there is a legitimately win-win situation in a national MOU taking say the CA law and applying it nationally. If you at all feel the CA law is good, it will spread it to shit states that would never care about their citizens’ right to repair on their own.

For the corps it is indeed a nightmare to let 50 states pass 50 different set of rules. The whole point of the IS market is that that does not happen. That there is one set of rules.

But yeah. They will fight any law that is passed. Any MOU they sign will not be perfect. And of course before the ink is even dry on the MOU the corps will be working on ways to subvert and bypass it.

PS: No MOU actually prevents states from passing new laws. It just tries to make a marketing claim “you do not have to spend effort on it- we are doing a good job already”. But that only lasts for as long as the MOU is not bypassed.

You miss the bigger picture. The shit journalism and propaganda are still free - funded by … other means . That is why magazine have tried to be free in the internet.

You’re also operating with the wisdom of hindsight. No one knew how to handle internet publishing. We all learned together.

It’s expensive to be on strike. Also for the union and its members. They are making sure they do not lose the war of attrition.

Lemmy lives on my phone and iPad. So rarely venture into the web UI. But I use Voyager On my mobile devices.

As does Windows and Mac. The both have states that are “asleep” but connected to the internet. Whether they will keep downloading - it’s not a thing I have tested.

What if I told you, the kid playgrounds are there for the parents ;)

(Yeah yeah. Not all adults are parents. Still tho).

Adieu , a parent of a kid.

Because of apple’s size. And because we just witnessed a death of a proprietary connector. A major win for the consumer and for the universtal serial bus projects overall mission.

On a side note. Apple has been part of the usb c project from the beginning and based on some biographies - they worked hard to never release Lightning. But they needed to drop the old 30pin connector and found usb C not ready when they needed it - so they release the lightning port instead. Then stuck to it for obvious profit /ecosystem reasons.

Truth. Very good point.

Miele now us a few bagless models with pretty good reviews. But they are a late comer compared to Dyson and Samsung.

It’s popular to hate on Dyson but cordless, bagless vacuum is very much a game dominated by them. Others - Samsung, Miele - have great products but I have yet to see a model from them that is truly superior to flagship Dysons. They dominate on suction and battery power.

Dyson is expensive (overpriced?). The owners is an oligarch brexiteer asshole. The brand is perpetually trending with annoying influencers and I find their vacuums ugly, but … they build very good vacuums.

Yes. I own a Dyson. A corded one. We’re on our third one and keep buying them because we have never had any issues with them.

My current one is 4 years old. The one before was 10 by the time we sold it due to international move. The one before we bought 10 years old used before deciding we wanted a new one.

Mod tools are not Lemmy. Give admins and mods an option. Even a paid one. Hell. Admins of Lemmy.world could have us donate extra to cover costs of api services.

To add to others’ posts. It can be a huge variety of things that risk making the service unstable, unresponsive, and worst case could corrupt data in flight.

Customers view scheduled maintenance as minor inconvenience. Unplanned outage as an annoyance, and loss of data as a dealbreaker.

So any time there was a chance that what we need to do would limit functionality - or otherwise make the system unstable - best to take the system offline for scheduled maintenance.

Basically also why Swedish barns are red. I presume those two stories and red barn origins are related.

Those companies do not make the news.
