$50 in 2007 is $77.62 in 2025. The outrageous thing is how little the working class has been given to compensate for it.

- Comment on How are the blatant anti-competitive practices of Apple just…allowed? How is this even possible? 1 week ago:
Why wouldn’t they be able to? Acceptance to their App Store requires that apps be built with a trusted tool chain. Their reasoning is that it’s harder to built malicious apps that might make it past review if you’re using their tools.

Chrome and Firefox on iOS are wrappers around Apple’s WebKit component. Neither of them run their own rendering engine.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch 1 week ago:
Also, patents shouldn’t be filable once prior art exists.
Aka Nintendo patenting game mechanics 30 years after the fact to try and sue Palworld.
Also game mechanics and UI features being tied to existing functionality (Amazon’s “one click”, Apple’s “swipe to unlock”) should not be considered novel.
- Comment on If Nothing is Exposed, Am I Safe? 1 week ago:
I had a double NAT setup like that. Run a firewall like OPNSense as a Proxmox VM, and give it a WAN interface on the ISP router’s IP range; then run everything else on a different subnet, using OPNSense as the gateway. On the ISP router, put OPNSense’s WAN IP in the DMZ. Then, do all your hardening using OPNSense’s firewall rules. Bonus points for setting up a VLAN on a physical switch to isolate the connection.
The ISP router will send everything to OPNSense’s WAN IP, and it will basically bypass the whole double NAT situation.

He literally said “American culture is different from its EU origins and therefore we call it out differently”
And then you said “nah since you’re American it’s all fake as fuck you’re just once large homogenous group”

- Comment on Meta whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams says company targeted ads at teens based on their ‘emotional state’ 2 weeks ago:
No, I don’t think they meant the kids should have known better, but rather the adults should have known to keep them away from social media because it’s the ultimate cyber predator.
God knows what a hyper-specific ML model is going to do for them

The line in bluring, but the Deck can run Windows if you want, it’s a PC stuffed into a controller (and that’s not a dig at it, either)
- Comment on Hades 2 will be a Nintendo Switch 2 console exclusive at launch 2 weeks ago:
It’s also on steam, like already you can buy it in Early Access
I don’t think many people who aren’t to Hades are like “aw fuck I can’t play it on my PS5??”
The three Xbox users are in shambles though
