    iPhone 17 Air: Here's What Apple's Thinnest iPhone Ever Will Look Like

  • Problem is companies like to use global accounting schemes to hide/move profit.

    If it was “5% of profit in the EU” then overnight Apple would suddenly make 0 profit in the EU due to “brand licensing fees” to Apple Cayman Islands Incorporated.

  • I don’t know what the big fuss is about, the whole project has been a roaring success, and looks to continue delivering for another decade.

    …you didn’t think the purpose was to improve public transport did you? 🎩💰

  • Just to say I would love for an iPad Pro to replace my MacBook, but without root file system access or a bash/zsh terminal it wouldn’t work.

    Does the new multitasking stuff and liquid glass work well on the base iPad that’s a couple of hundred bucks?

    Can’t justify having two super powerful four figure devices that have such overlap otherwise (for me).

  • At what point is any of this DOGE stuff treason

  • All part of Putin’s plan.

    There will be some terms that Russia wants “at the last minute” that Trump will insist on otherwise he’ll pull the rug again even worse.

    No need for a false flag operation, though that could be a nice next play for the aggressors. Heck that could even be an excuse for not only the US dropping support for Ukraine but completely switching sides and providing support for Russia!

    I really hope Europe pulls its finger out, as they have been promising. US will be a bad partner for the next four years. And then again when Trump jr. runs next.

  • I think a big part of why western countries “fear” china in the automotive space relates to local companies’ workers being expected to compete in a race to the bottom for compensation for labourers.

    Just look at the fashion industry - sales of five dollar dresses made by workers at shein in miserable conditions dwarf those of 200 dollar dresses produced by local workers with a comfortable quality of life.

  • I don’t think they do.

    They seem to play on cultural references “for the lolz” and sometimes some pointless competition e.g “screw meme A buy meme B!”

    Thinking about it I don’t understand why, given the now unpopularity of Elon and his gvt stuff, the meme coiners aren’t going all out on CATE to spite DOGE. That would actually be hilarious to see in the papers!

    But again to answer the question - they’re a joke gamble, like picking a horse with a funny name regardless of its form.

  • I had no idea!

    Wonder if any of that stuff will make it upstream and if not if there’s good reason?

  • It’s sad, remember when terrorism meant flying a 747 into a sky scraper?

    Nowadays whenever I see it in the headlines I just assume someone pissed off the wrong cop.

  • Is this a lot? Like what’s the average reward for someone who shoots someone dead in America?

  • This is a classic conundrum.

    Containers and their volumes are supposed to be ephemeral (right?).

    Yet we use them to run little apps where we configure settings etc in the app which we would like to “keep” - thus back up. Yes in a proper set up you would hook your container up to something that is not ephemeral like a database somewhere, but often we just want an app, see it’s got a self contained docker image, and just run it.

    Whilst not in the spirit of things… I’ve tried using Borg backup however it just fails due to random permissions on the volumes.

    I should spend more time looking into it but haven’t the time right now, could be the solution is specific to the app/container but the simplicity of just backing up a /volumes/* directory is soooo tempting…

    Edit upon reflection, what about a sudo cron tab to zip volumes and set useful permissions on the zip. Then Borg to backup the zip. Borg (or at least vorta) can easily run scripts before/after and pass variables relating to the backup though.
