The feature only appears if both devices in the conversation have it.

I always thought of SMS as a bit like regular mail. (i.e. the message handed to the network with some addressing label with no feedback for the sender)

But this implies that there is some kind if handshake occurring between the devices, how does it really work?

lost revenue

You can be sure this is retail only.

Enterprise Windows won’t have this feature and now appears to have added value for corporate customers.

You can always just check that a carriers bands are supported by the hardware yourself.

“Epic’s filing to the US Federal Court shows again that it simply wants the benefits of Google Play without having to pay for it,” Google’s spokesperson said. “We’ll continue to challenge the verdict, as Android is an open mobile platform that faces fierce competition from the Apple App Store, as well as app stores on Android devices, PCs, and gaming consoles.”

Is this the mocking? Its not a very good mocking!

I was running a web browser on an azure VM and clicked a reddit link in my search results only to see this page.

I’m not logging into my personal reddit account at work (or creating a work reddit account) so I just found my information elsewhere.

I’m pretty sure this is the edit that removed the last of the OG text. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ship_of_Theseus&diff=95906786&oldid=1154003

Of course none of that text is in the current article either, I wonder how many generations it has had?

Yes, they know. The message is asking the user to change from their default to Adobe Reader.

As far as I can tell outlook will call out the title of the first 3 emails in a minute, then if further emails arrive you get the general message.

Its really just a ‘we are rate limiting our notifications, check your inbox’ message.

Having control over the UI helps. I never want to see “shorts” on start-up but its also nice to have control over share/cast buttons, do I care about up/down votes? Auto play or next video recommendations?

Then there are options to skips youtube ads (by just not loading them) and sponsor segments (by using sponsor block).

Continued playback with a locked screen can be handy sometimes too.

A lot of the UI is designed to encourage user engagement and monetize that engagement. My priorities differ.

Some of these features are available with YouTube Premium but that’s comically over priced (and still doesn’t offer as much control). The Family plan is currently around 150% the price of Netflix Premium :/

Revanced works for me and my family (mobile and tablet).

I’m using smartube on android TV and its functional but I would like to hear about alternatives if anyone has a recommendation.

The op link hit a paywall for me, this one is working:

the company will now pay “zero” dollars as part of the settlement after earlier facing a $5 billion penalty.

I guess they would call that a win

In a 1999 essay on reasons for the male predominance in computer science, applied mathematician Dianne P. O’Leary wrote: .

Suggestive pictures used in lectures on image processing … convey the message that the lecturer caters to the males only. For example, it is amazing that the “Lena” pin-up image is still used as an example in courses and published as a test image in journals today.

That’s 25 years ago…

I joined my older brother when we was watching the zero boys on VHS.

I would have been around seven at the time and some scenes were a little too much.

There is a fair bit of mental illness in the family, the early asylum scenes hit a bit too close to home for 5 year old me.

Unfortunately I suppose thats the equivalent of refusing to vote.

I can see an argument for taking internet usage as a proxy for education in which case the US swells up to ≈16%.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_Internet_users

But I don’t think we can exclude non-english speakers, supervolcanoes are a global phenomena, mentos is sold in 130 countries by an Italian-Dutch corporation, and insurance traces its roots back to Chinese shipping in 3rd millenia BCE.

I like the general sentiment but not the worked example,.the US is only ≈4% of the global population so 10k is low balling.

The implication is of course that less successful titles will not be ported either because the company runs out of money or feels they are better off working on their next title than investing more resources on porting a middling title to a second choice platform.

If small devs are expected to support every platform day one that increases the barrier to entry.

A world where small teams start their release on one or two platform they find advantageous and then port their successful titles to other platforms after is probably safest for them and offers the most product diversity for consumers.
