  • Yeah but if the EULA is different from one country to another, they'd want me to see the French version and not the US one.

  • Wouldn't work for me: I'm French and I live in France, but all my devices are set to en_US.

  • I know "security experts" from a top French bank who insisted on using telegram instead of signal. So even people who were supposed to stay informed about this stuff fell for the hype and marketing.

  • I read your comment before the article and I thought you had made the second quote up lol, unbelievable. And people are throwing money at these guys?

  • Yeah, while Gaben is still at the helm...

  • OK so this is most likely by design, impressive.

  • Does the timer "jump" to the correct time after you dismiss the window ? It's also possible that they didn't bother testing the app when logged out, and that the popup blocks the UI thread while it's displayed. In short it could be bad coding and QA instead of intentional enshittification.

  • Telemetry is not bad in itself. It can be used for bug/crash reports, or usage statistics, without tracking or personal data collection.

  • Nah, Hibernate, Spring and most major Java frameworks have largely moved away from XML. It's still supported, but these days it's mostly configured in the code directly, with properties loaded from yaml, JSON or the environment (for containers).

    The JDK ecosystem is in a pretty good spot nowadays. With Spring boot you can whip up a productions ready back-end very fast, or if you prefer a more hands-on approach there are lighter frameworks/libraries quarkus or micronaut.

    The Java language itself has evolved fast and is actually pretty nice now, and if you prefer something more modern akin to TS or swift you can just use Kotlin which is almost 100% interoperable with Java.

  • Since Java 14 it looks like this:

    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException:

    Cannot invoke "String.toLowerCase()" because the return value of "com.baeldung.java14.npe.HelpfulNullPointerException$PersonalDetails.getEmailAddress()" is null

    at com.baeldung.java14.npe.HelpfulNullPointerException.main(HelpfulNullPointerException.java:10)

  • Well they're voting for a rapist who cheated on all of his 4 wifes, in case you still thought they actually cared for family values.

  • systems after being defunded by conservatives

    Like in France, where Macron spent millions to fucking McKinsey for their asshole consultants to "optimize" our healthcare system. Said assholes did what they do best: cut costs and staff.

    Now our hospitals are in shambles, workers are at the rope's end and they keep on cutting their budget year after year. But it's all good, we voted for the left so that they turn things around! Oh wait...

  • That's because he planted a backdoor into GIT, and now he reviews your bad commits every night.

  • If it's an open WiFi (no WPA password) packets are not encrypted anyway, so anyone on this AP can easily see everything that comes through it. A decade ago, when most websites allowed plain HTTP, there was a Firefox extension which let you hijack the Facebook or Twitter session of anyone connected to an open WiFi with a couple of clicks.

    Nowadays everything is hopefully encrypted at the application level, so while attackers can see where the data goes, they can't actually read it.

  • But it's their legitimate interest! ^Whatever ^that ^means

  • It requires 16GB RAM, which is perfectly acceptable. But it can use more if available, for high res textures I assume. Which are streamed from Microsoft's servers, explaining in part the difference between install size and max memory requirements.

  • His daughter was unfazed by her account, this kind of unhinged shit was a common occurrence for them. I bet there is a lot of other weird stories like that.

  • In this case it's not "never", I don't use twitter and saw this news on Lemmy this morning.
