Extradition? Probably not. He's almost certainly going to get deported after his sentence is served.

Depends on the context about which you're talking.

I'm talking about accessing a service which Apple is in control of the infrastructure and has specifically put in place access and authorization controls.

In this instance, if Beeper wanted to reverse engineer the API, make their own implementation, and offer their own messaging service that's fine. More power to them generally.

But unless Beeper comes to some sort of agreement to allow interoperability with Apple's iMessage (or Apple is forced to allow it by government action) then they can't take it upon themselves to use exploits or spoofing to gain access without authorization. You might think it sucks that Apple has kept their API closed and that it's a bad idea, but that's their prerogative. It's just like when Twitter closed their API or when Reddit priced everyone out of using their API, except Apple never had it open to start with.

How dare you sully the name of Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho by associating him with Donald Trump.

It just looked like resentment that they were arriving in blue states and sanctuary cities. The same places that have long described immigrants as net positives.

I think it's more that they're being dropped off with no communication, coordination, planning, or notice at all. Just random bus loads of immigrants arriving in the night thinking there will be resources there to help them.

Oh, and then you get the obvious PR moves like bus loads showing up unannounced at the Vice President's official residence in the middle of the night during a time where the temperatures were dangerously low. It's sick -- just using immigrants as a PR stunt to "own the libs."

Yeah. I mean, the actual reverse engineering is something Apple wouldn't be able to stop them from doing. But anyone who thought Apple couldn't stop them from using that reverse engineering to connect to iMessage was delusional. And if it had become more of a cat and mouse situation where Beeper was able to keep gaining access, Apple would have sued the pants off them. Apple, as shitty of a company as they are, have every right to control access to their own APIs.

IIRC MIUI has for quite a while been tuned very aggressively in terms of memory management. That is to say, it's probably not the browser but the underlying OS that is pruning processes to keep memory free when it really doesn't need to.

I use similar software on PC solely because it allows independent remapping of Xbox Elite controller paddles. That is, I can map them to key presses directly instead of mapping them to another button on the controller. Previously I had to map another controller button to a key and then remap the paddle to that button.

But it also happens to use a virtual controller driver that can be used with the mouse and also abuse aim assist. And thus was hit with some anti-cheat blocks recently. So now unless I want to uninstall and reinstall that software between certain games I can't play some at all.

Edit: the software I was using was ReWASD. Turns out both Microsoft's official app and Steam's Big Picture Mode controller settings now do about 80-95% respectively of what I need from remapping software. (Microsoft's implementation of Shift buttons is incomplete and theirs doesn't work over Bluetooth. The MS app also doesn't allow you to map different keys contextually -- for long presses, double presses, etc)

So Ivanka for VP?

She should run as an Independent.

These states have already been investigating and in some cases prosecuting miscarriages. If these laws pass it's going to happen.

He already lost at the Supreme Court. This is his declaration that he's ignoring that.

I mean, as shitty as it is, there's a decent sized market for it. Probably worth it to them to overpay so much for it to hurt the current streaming provider, Peacock.

Plex has already been enshitifying itself for years. Their own streaming channels, ad supported streaming, their creepy activity log sharing, banning servers run on entire hosting services, cracking down ever more on piracy. Hell I've seen reports where they banned people hosting on their own residential connections and sharing with friends and family, then emailing those friends & family and falsely informing them their host was running a commercial piracy service. And next month they become a store for movie and TV rentals.

Really it's time to just bite the bullet and swap to Jellyfin.

I mean, can't you use something like Teleparty to sync up streams in both your browsers? Then just voice chat in Discord.

It was doing this to me a while back. Are you using a VPN or using an ad-blocker specifically for Twitch's embedded stream ads? (e.g. TTV-LOL-Pro) The latter work by using proxies and so I think trigger the same sort of effects. Disabled it and it worked fine. It also happened on a Chromium-based browser when I tested it out.

Eurasian Times is a garbage site.

And then in 5 years they'll all settle for a few million dollars in a class action for price fixing. Rinse, repeat.

I'm talking about the long term and not just of Gaza but of an independent Palestinian state. Ultimately the Palestinian people will have to be in charge of the security of that state. Otherwise it is not a sovereign state but dependent on the whims of the Israeli government.

True enough. I was thinking more of the gaming use case. But even beyond AI and just a general compute workload they're beating the pants off AMD with CUDA as well.

"The civil war was about States rights..."

And it's the party's right to choose a state that isn't 93% white to hold their first primary. That's the reason they wanted to change it, so maybe a state that's more representative of the party and of POC go first.

You're also really reading a lot into my comment which is just about NH creating this clusterfuck. They could have gone second, and okay maybe Biden would've done poorly there and the delegates would actually matter. Instead the state government chose this.

Which is honestly a shame, because I'm not itching for another 4 years of aiding, abetting, or at least acquiescing to a genocide.
