People definitely talked a LOT about Gen X when the generation was in the adolescent / young adult phase and was changing norms.

Fair point. He paid the protection money instead of fighting.

Company’s run by a gay man from a deep red Alabama county. I assume he very much understands what’s it’s like to be target of bigotry and discrimination.

100%.

I only tossed that comment in there because there is always one Lemmy user who says “remember that one time” about a random app sneaking something past a reviewer.

Reviewers are humans and are imperfect. They’ve even missed garbage that I’ve accidentally submitted in a build. 😆

Apps in the App Store go through a standard privacy and security review. It’s not perfect, but random downloaded apps don’t go through this process. But if you trust the developer, download away.

In the case of retro arch, AppStore downloads are new for them. Apple previously banned emulators in the App Store.

The developers recently added the AppStore to their offerings and they didn’t take away the ability to download the emulator the old fashioned way.

There is always a chance of malware, but that chance goes down with reviews.

You’re missing the context. This joke is in reference to Musk and the retarded American workers X comment.

I’ve never understood the giant notch on the MacBook since there is no FaceID.

I’m fairly blind to it now, but it’s definitely a weird design choice.

Apple after making $2billion in revenue by selling a measly half million headsets.

IMHO, the only benefit is the longevity of the device. Those specs are absolute overkill for today’s needs, but that iPad will remain performant for a long time.

lol

Good news is that many landlords excel at this level of craftsmanship.

Alternative theory. Reverse image search is imperfect.

I don’t know about soup trout, but goldfish are thriving.

Yeah, the more I look up this, it looks like an NFC loop is part of the MagSafe / Qi 2 protocols.

I thought that coil was the NFC coil so that the phone could identify the case and accessories. It’s only a few threads, which would be small for an induction coil.

Magsafe has magnets in the phone, the dock, AND the case for a firm connection.

Here’s a pic of my Apple silicone case with no phone inside of it. It’s magnetic.

When I say, “Set a timer for 5 minutes,” it sets a timer. (18.2db1)
