I think you accidentially wrote Ukraine when bringing up this point about Russia?

Here’s a tough one: Why does Home turn on both of my LG TVs random times of day, both at the same time, even in the middle of the night. LG support pointed towards Apple about this, and indeed it stopped right after I deleted both TVs from my Home app. I have a ton of iOS/iPadOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS devices so impossible to tell which of them might it have been, if any, but they all are running ~latest public versions, and macOS is ruled out by not being on on couple of occasions. Checked that there are no Automations or Shortcuts etc. anywhere.

This is almost as infuriating as when Apple Watch on my wrist used to (not lately anymore) wake me up in the middle of the night saying it has updates it can install, not respecting my Sleep mode absolutely-no-notifications setting. And there not being a ”Install update when put in charger” option instead of the ”Install this night” (but yeah this is dumb UX not bug)

Well that, and the footage they got of him decades ago in Moscow when he tried to get his businesses up over there. Golden showers and whatnot they say. By now it should be obvious to everyone what his assignment is: Final blow in the divide and conquer scheme that has been running in US since the soviet days. Social media and of course China joining the cause behind the curtains really gave this campaign a big boost.

When we talk about these browsers with ultra marginal market share, this unfortunately equals to unique. If it could spoof for example ”latest chrome on latest vanilla windows, using the most common resolution screen”, then I’d see some actual value.

Can, but usually won’t. They are a ”generation” apart, which in fighter aircraft language means something like ”about 15-20% better overall”.

And this is in no way to endorse the 35 nor diss Gripen, but a fact that the air forces of many countries have established in their trial programs. Just hoping the Swedes get yet another modernized iteration out at some point to close the gap.

Allows uBlock Origin (and bunch of other useful extensions) to work on iOS when watching YouTube. So a godsend.

Is it easily selfhostable again? I used to have it on my private server but eventually it ate some shit and the configuration of different helpers became too much of a burden.

For us advanced users true, but for the bulk of people where ”just use this app instead” has worked previously, will not do it anymore. Whole lotta more hoops to jump through and google knows many will not be able to.

Exactly. It would restore my faith to their good intentions if they’d call their puppet out of Ukraine. But their only true goal is to try and fight the US in all thigs they can (without pissing them off ofc), so two-faced.

It’s likely not going to take that many months when they will resort to that ”strong fist” too. Tech giants know this too and that’s why they need to get all the chips they can NOW because it’s going to be a few years of no chips from certain areas…
