Waiting for the inevitable man to come in and go “But how are we supposed to unify if we keep dividing ourselves?” or “You’d have a fit if men complained about women attending a male only event.”

There’s a convergence of issues. First, and probably foremost, users are idiots. So it has to be able to be operated by a 5 year with a learning disability. Second, implementing security costs money up front. It is cheaper to let the customer deal with the fall out, then do damage control on the cheap, and keep going. Third, users can’t be assed to access things that a 5 year old with learning and physical disabilities and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in one hand can’t access. These are all typical issues stuff is engineered towards. This is why you see this same basic issue crop up over and over again.
I’m sure they investigated themselves and found no trace of wrong doing.
Like Qatar gives a good god damn about human rights.
That isn’t weird. This should be default behavior for everyone. If it was fewer people would get caught by scams. I also look at the sender’s email. All the ones I’ve ever received have come from domains not affiliated with the company they purport to represent. I’ve taught all my non-security savvy friends to do this, too.
Consider, if you will, a modest to large group chat. Say a few people start chatting. dindingdingdingding People float into and out of the chat keeping it going for hours and notification after notification after notification comes in. Maybe they’re in a group chat for several classes and/or interests and/or family. I can easily see it. I have to mute the group family chat I’m in when they really start to get going, especially my wife and sister-in-law.
We have had watertight user serviceable with external batteries handheld amateur radios for decades. Your arguments are baloney. Phones are only this way because manufacturers want them to be this way.
It’s almost like their workers should form some sort of association so that they could collectively work to negotiate with Amazon on a more equal footing. Too bad that never happened ever in the history of the human workforce. Sure would be nice, though. Oh, wait…
I get what you’re saying, but what is the return on those, though? Does it compare to the returns selling a phone? I mean, it could be better returns selling parts, but companies as big as Apple tend to get moribund in their view of the revenue stream. The current model works, so why mess with it?
Right? Or maybe watching the first part of a show until the first commercial to determine if I want to take the time to find it elsewhere.
Nah, I think global sites should just block access from the UK. Let’s see how the politicians like it when facebook, etc, stop working.
Not if they’re funded by deep pockets like with governments and corporations.
Clorox owns Fresh Step, amongst others.
Same, but I will not buy direct from them because of the their absolute shit customer service.
Google is first and foremost an ad company. Everything else they do is only to improve the worth of their ad business.
Depends what is in the contract. If the contract says devs on are the hook for any future fees they deem necessary, then the devs are on the hook. Unless they want to pay a lawyer big bucks to take on the company behind Unity with their billions of dollars of revenue and the lawyers that buys. How many indie devs do you think can afford to do that?
Welcome to capitalism! Ain’t it grand!
A 15 year old technology pretty much every other phone uses now. A technology used in pretty much every modern laptop - especially Apple’s own - and many desktops.
Yeah, this is a decades old ongoing issue with companies. They see pretty much anything IT related as a money sink that needs to be trimmed to the bare bones while giving salespeople absurd bonuses. Then they get all surprised pikachu faced when they get hacked or hit with ransomware and their last backup was 6 months ago when they let the IT department go without warning and hired some guys from overseas to handle it remotely.
