ChrisRR··on Canada welcomes EU proposal to become 'associate member'
Because we have decades of evidence to show that he's incredibly stupid?
ChrisRR··on Canada welcomes EU proposal to become 'associate member'
Trump lacks the introspection to realise that he's the bully at the playground that everyone is distancing themselves from.

He somehow thinks that he's going to make the US more respected by constantly jabbing at his allies

ChrisRR··on Canada welcomes EU proposal to become 'associate member'
It means they're an american who doesn't have any input, they just want to complain about canada without a reason
ChrisRR··on Canada welcomes EU proposal to become 'associate member'
I think it's more interesting to see how many profiles pop out of the woodwork when certain political topics arise
ChrisRR··on Canada welcomes EU proposal to become 'associate member'
Having been through years of brexit crap, I can tell you that the answer is racism, and the weaponisation of outrage by the media
ChrisRR··on Canada welcomes EU proposal to become 'associate member'
It sounds like they need to read what an associate membership is before they complain about it then
ChrisRR··on Backups Aren't Simple
Really? It's showing up as ***** for me
ChrisRR··on PS5 Linux lead quits: "a bunch of noobs using LLMs" that "they don't understand"
Unless they didn't want to actually make money from anything nefarious, and the bounty was more than just "a few pennies"
ChrisRR··on PS5 Linux lead quits: "a bunch of noobs using LLMs" that "they don't understand"
Reading all of the quotes it seems he's more annoyed that they disclosed the bug to Sony to collect the bounty, and that they're using AI as an afterthought
ChrisRR··on PS5 Linux lead quits: "a bunch of noobs using LLMs" that "they don't understand"
Well given his history, it's almost definitely to make linux work
ChrisRR··on PS5 Linux lead quits: "a bunch of noobs using LLMs" that "they don't understand"
This title and the first quote are misleading. A dev found an undisclosed hypervisor exploit using AI that TheFlow0 had been using and keeping secret, but the other dev had informed Sony to collect the bug bounty.

It's an issue that the dev attempted to collect the bug bounty, AI or no

ChrisRR··on US confirms for first time it has deployed space weapons
You don't have to have a solution to recognise that there's a problem
ChrisRR··on Devastated father says his 9-year-old son spent $118,000 on YouTube ads
Literally the first sentence in the article

"The button said approved every time as nobody had set a limit."

ChrisRR··on EU chief opens door for Canada to become 'associate member'
I wouldn't be surprised if Scotland eventually leaves UK and joins the EU. Part of the reason they voted to stay in the UK was so that they could remain in the EU, and then brexit happened
ChrisRR··on EU chief opens door for Canada to become 'associate member'
No it wouldn't. Other EU associate members have their own data protection laws, some of which align with GDPR
ChrisRR··on EU chief opens door for Canada to become 'associate member'
Trump is absolutely a malicious imbecile, but the US is a country that willingly voted him in twice.

Removing Trump doesn't remove fundamental issues with the US

ChrisRR··on EU chief opens door for Canada to become 'associate member'
This was one of the stupid things that was touted as a benefit of not being in the EU during brexit.

That we'd still have to comply with EU rules if we wanted to trade with them, but we wouldn't have any vote in those rules

ChrisRR··on iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max
80% doesn't mean the battery needs replacing though
ChrisRR··on Devil's Arrows: Ancient builders hauled 55k-lb stones 11 miles for UK stone row
Imperial is confusing at the best of times, but couldn't they have said 24.5 tons instead of 55,000 lbs?
ChrisRR··on iPod Classic 6G in QEMU
They don't normally give a reason. Just picking a few random examples

ChrisRR··on Google will buy half the electricity from one of Finland's nuclear power plants
Surely it makes more sense for European data to be stored in the more local datacentre?
ChrisRR··on iPod Classic 6G in QEMU
It's a rarity to see a comments section in r/emulation that isn't just endless screaming about AI code
ChrisRR··on Claude is no longer available for minors
Surely this is the opposite? Collecting photos of adults to prove that they can use the service
ChrisRR··on The same nine streaming subscriptions cost $702/year more than in 2021
It literally is a niche. The amount of desktop users using linux is way smaller than windows
ChrisRR··on The Gemini app is now available for Windows
I'm sure given all of their devs at google, they can task someone with taking screenshots.

Or can gemini generate a script to automatically update the screenshots when updated?

ChrisRR··on T-Mobile to Charge $5 a Month for iOS 27 iPhone Handoff
People who want 2 phones but one number. Seems self explanatory to me
ChrisRR··on Microsoft Brings "Age Verification" System to Windows
This is the other way round. It's to prove that you're an adult if you use any apps or sites that are adult only.
ChrisRR··on iPhone Duo
Not really. The vast majority of devices are so similar that you only really have a couple of categories to cater for
ChrisRR··on “Tweet” and the bird logo apparently enter the public domain
Twitter in its design has never been a platform for discussion, but for shouting into the void. And that seems to have empowered people to voice their most awful opinions because they don't see much pushback
