THE SUPREME COURT: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE; Justices Rule Police Do Not Have a Constitutional Duty to Protect Someone

https://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politics/justices-rule-po...


The only thing I worry is DJT will ask Google Apple Amazon etc to impose a 10 % fee on sale in Rest of world to fund his bank accounts.

In a sense I am happy. All empires decline. This will decline USA forever.


From the article:

> What the devs care about is the ability to understand the product experience from the perspective of each customer. In practice, this can mean any combination or permutation of agent, user, mobile device type, laptop, desktop, point of sale device, and so on

Really? Any permutation?

Most (arse hole) devs

- Import world - as it works on their latest 1TB machine or macOS studio

- always on the latest iPhone or pixel

- Add 100 tracking that works on their own machine

- POS device? They should ask some of devs to go and work on their canteens that have POS


Apparently?

i.e -> fake news.


No.

First-hand account.


Totally. This would have been vital.


And how are they supposed to do it if users did not add proper 2FA (and backup those recovery keys)?

Even banks are struggling to authenticate folks. For a longtime in EU people with 3rd world passports cannot create accounts easily.

Google cannot connect identity of a person to email address easily. Or they need to create CS - that will authenticate passports? And hundreds of countries, stolen IDs?

Nay.

> The thing is that at scale your edge cases are still millions of people

> never seem to be capable of handling the other parts that come with it

Same thing with govts. If you go to driver license. passport or any govt office then there will one person with some strange issue.


For you

- WhatsApp is an exception

For others

- Google is an exception


I agree and its unfortunate that there i. For a long time I went without WhatsApp but realized that connecting to family was more important to me. I don't have a good alternative for this one.


Niche forums still exist with real humans like for example, LTT or openZFS forums. But main stream ones like XDA, reddit or YouTube etc are totally ruined by AI.


It works well for you.. but for average person. No.

As a 20 year old linux user, I do often use ChromeOS or ChromeOSflex. Just works. Beautiful UI. No more pain with webcam or wifi drivers - Yes, these have improved by still one has the pain of dropped packets (realtek wifi) etc. guaranteed 10 hour battery life.

With ChromeOS I just get 4 or 5 second - update - immutable OS. Fedora Silverblue is coming up but still not there.


Congrats, you are trading freedom for some convenience.


Don't think it is targeted at you. A lot of people like you say so - but will be shoved Win11 or Apple Intelligence. Enjoy.


How? What leverage does Google have in the Desktop space? They have no captive market that they can leverage a forced installation of Aluminum OS.


Rugpulling the education market that got suckered into buying all those Chromebooks and grooming the kids into Google products from kindergarten onwards.
