My next shaver will be USB-C. It’s now a standard for charging whatever you want.

It’s not the freedom of federating. It’s the freedom of being outside corpo.

Each big company should open its own app store in the EU making the use of iPhone impossible there. People will switch to Android pretty quickly.

If people want Facebook, they need to install the meta store and then install Facebook. A Google product? Install the Google store and then the app. Want Spotify? Install the Spotify store and then Spotify. TikTok? TikTok store and then TikTok…

Think AI as the new tool to make money quickly after crypto, NFT, etc.

Was ZDNet once a good source for news?

Ma Saw VI dans ta Saw VII. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

It’s depending if you put your Saw VI in your Saw VII.

Kiwi is Chromium what’s an issues for the open web. Firefox+ ublock origin. And if someone want a F-Droid link, you can search for Fennec.

Or nightly

Or beta

Or Mull

Linux distro. It was a time were my area of interest was IT and I read a lot about it and tried several Linux distro.

For me, it looks like people are mad at the US defaultism of the decision.

I understand why. It makes for part of the users no sense as they are protected by the law. It looks like a US “shitshow”. Countries are protecting the IP of the person, making it nearly impossible to pursue someone. Others have law allowing the use and the copy of copyrighted material for educational purposes. Some allow the download of copyrighted material.

It’s the same with GDPR. Meta must comply. There is no exception because US defaultism.

And we can understand this point of view too. It’s not binary as the US people think it is. It’s more mixed depending of the country.

Generally, outside of this drama, on the internet, people are reclaiming they right and don’t want the US “example” anymore. They want the internet following their local laws like the GDPR for Europeans. They have the right to claim it. Thanks to GDPR, mandatory usb-c, battery replacement and others laws in Europe and outside, the consciences of are awakened that the US is not the model to follow in terms of law on the internet and technologies.

Any fork for that?

Moded why not

My 2008 MBP is still running with a Linux distro. It was more for the fun than the usability with the Core2duo and 2go of ram.

It’s not about privacy. It’s about not having shity recommendations.

No:

In so far as they are capable of being recharged via wired charging at voltages higher than 5 volts, currents higher than 3 amperes or powers higher than 15 watts, the categories or classes of radio equipment referred to in point 1 letters a) to m) shall:

(a) incorporate the USB Power Delivery, as described in the standard EN IEC 62680-1- 2:2021 ‘Universal serial bus interfaces for data and power - Part 1-2: Common components - USB Power Delivery specification’;

(b) ensure that any additional charging protocol allows the full functionality of the USB Power Delivery referred to in point (a), irrespective of the charging device used.

No, the regulation isn’t just usb-c, it’s usb-c and power delivery. Apple can’t magically escape both of them with a “made for apple” cable. It must accept all third party cable and charger.

Two possibilities:

• It’s a revolution. They give it a specific name and blablabla.
• They don’t say anything.

And ever will.

making iPhones use a “Made for Apple” type of cable for faster charging speeds

They can’t do that. The iPhone must comply with PD.
