It's likely in future, you won't need app store approval process. I hope that EU will nuke Apple with some huge fines.

And there will be corporate tax per each EU country, it's ridiculous corporates are raking huge money here and paying basically nothing on taxes, well only in Ireland and they're having party.

Anyway, asm is great if you are using iOS emulator and need to do something and since you have root there, well :) (not apple meme simulator)


You can already deploy apps on alternative stores inside of the EU. Apple has some bullshit fee but Epic has promised to cover that for AltStore.


More locked device, more difficult obfuscation -> more motivation for certain people to break it and share it with everybody.

There is no way, you can plug all holes, iPhone couldn't do it with their golden cage and they spend ridiculous amount of money so their phone cannot be rooted, but you still have rooted iphone.


Easy ownership test. Try flash custom firmware on your phone. ;-)

You can't? THEN YOU DON'T OWN YOUR PHONE.

Simple as that.


Hmm, meanwhile you have whole gaming platforms like Steam, where they basically make huge profit from gambling in games like Counter-strike and others. And hmm whose playing those games?


In defense of the parent comment, I don't know that he suggested that it wasn't effective, but it is a dark pattern that probably should be avoided if the gist of the effort is to truly be an educational game that you'd want to enthusiastically support.


But the makers of CS don't go around telling their game is targeted at kids.

And that's another topic, plus this is part of the gameplay, not just some cosmetic stuff.


Aren't most micro-transactions like those purely cosmetic?


Yes for Valve, but that hasn't stopped a secondary market transacting tens of thousands of dollars or more for them in some cases.

They are in Valve's own games. But items drop at different rates, which creates artificial scarciry and items can also be traded for money.


It's cloud based, yep :D


...printing is cloud based and subscription only...

Edit: (I was joking and it's really cloud based, omfg)


HP lol, yeah sure. I wouldn't touch anything HP with 100m long pole.

I imagine soon they could implement something like this...

"Robot error, you've reached wear & tear limit on your left wheel: 1 mile. Please buy a new wheel from HP shop, Price: $2999"

"Robot error, looks like your new wheel is not compatible with your old right wheel. Please buy a new right wheel..."

"Robot error, you've reached recharge limit of 50 cycles, on your internal robot battery..."


Would be cool, if you could upload the scene into image gen. model and it would create picture for you but with hard defined objects from the scene.

You know, for us people who can't draw a ... nothing :)

(I still support creative people though)


It's entirely possible to export an image of the scene and upload that to your genAI of choice.


Is there an OpenPose format json export option, for use with ControlNet tools? Or is the only option as an image to image reference?


Neovim > everything else.

Bye


Bro, with this mentality, you won't get far in Apple universe.

Embrace your wallet will be owned by Apple. Then you can continue.

Sorry, but people buying Apple products are different bread :D


I don't need to "get far in the Apple universe", I need a laptop. My current MacBook Pro cost about the same as the Dell XPS I was using before it, I like nice laptops
