Shrug. They can open up the apple ecosystem so you don't need their store and then they can refuse to do business.

Apple put themselves in the position that they have to do business with entities they don't approve of, thankfully the courts are reminding them of this. Soon one or more of the apple execs will wind up in prison.

> Porn sites suing because Apple won't allow them to put apps in their store and that's costing them their livelihood

Great example, actually. Why do you think it's okay for apple to unilaterally decide what more than a billion people are allowed to use their device for? Is it because you are projecting your own fears and insecurities on everyone else?

I'm explaining that gene modification will not be considered illegal or bad because the rich will have a vested interest in it being legal. This is a reply to GP saying:

> use legal mechanisms to discriminate and persecute people who are genetically modified

I believe there is no way this will happen, because legal mechanisms are driven by the whims of the rich, and they will want gene editing to be legal. So there will beno legal mechanisms to discriminate against those who have been edited.

This is why apple needs to be broken up into a software company and a hardware company. They're so, so clearly abusing their current position.

So pathetic, especially the red triangle. It's like they thought "well it's a warning, so we use the warning icon but we need to make it scary so it's red!!".

Don't be silly, the rich will want their babies to be perfect so gene editing will be legal and considered OK.

You mean that that's ok for you. Which is fine. It isn't ok for other people, which is also fine.

Some people may not want to have to reopen Nextcloud any time a new directory appears on their device so they can add it to Nextcloud, while the other American bigtech backup apps can just pick it up automatically no problem.

Great, now look at the prices and compare that to your typical AirBnB.

> this is mostly called an aparthotel

Which is quite different from, and far more expensive than, a hotel which GP was talking about.

> This is different from Airbnb's where they abuse a residential building for short term stays.

As allowed by local regulations, so not quite abuse. Sure it used to be the wild west several years ago but it's been cracked down on since.

It's designed to sync the files the user wants synced, be it files produced by the camera app or some other app that operates on a directory on your device, such as your Downloads folder, audiobook folder used by your audiobook app, or the notes folder where your notes app writes the notes.txt, or just straight up everything.

Got some links? And how do their prices compare to the typical AirBnB?

> There are plenty of hotels where you can get multiple rooms and a washing machine

Ok... Can you show me some like that in the EU?

> This is all not to mention being asked to strip beds, take out trash, etc, after you've paid thousands of dollars, including cleaning fees for the place.

Just don't do that.

Google will not let you pick the root folder, making it impossible to sync everything.

Note that Google's and other American Big Tech apps do not have this issue, because Google only cares about taking permissions away from "small" players.

Keep deluding yourself, buddy.

> is that productivity in the teams using tools like this has greatly increased

On the short term. Have fun debugging that mess in a year while your customers are yelling at you! I'll be available for hire to fix the mess you made which you clearly don't have the capability to understand :-)

Try rereading the above instead of making up your own fantasies.

It's still hilarious how the police will get involved for you tinkering with your own computer inside your own home.

Yes. Fix your configuration so it won't try to allocate more ram than you have. You can still be upset about them hammering your site but if your server software crashes because of it that's a misconfiguration that you should fix regardless.

of course not, why are you immediately jumping at accusations? if i was i'd just patch the bug locally and thank OP for pointing out how they're doing it.

it's just blatantly illegal and i wouldn't want anyone to get into legal trouble

if your software crashes due to normal usage then you only have yourself to blame

Some not-so-friendly men in suits will show up at your house. Afterwards you will most certainly comply.

The only way out is to hold executives personally responsible for the actions of their companies, and politicians for the results of their policy.

Sam Altman should receive the same treatment as Aaron Swartz. Actually, he should be punished much more severely since the scope of his copyright infringement makes Aaron's seem like child's play.

How is this in any way relevant to what I said? You're just making excuses, but that doesn't change the fact that americans don't give a fuck about the climate, and they objectively pollute far more than those in normal countries.

Unity is actually permanently banning accounts for uploading a package that they decree has now been deprecated? What are they smoking?

There is no privacy difference between a local LLM listening versus a local wake word model listening.

> I can't speak on it's capabilities, but I feel like I have to ask: for what conceivable reason would you even want that extra error potential with migrations etc?

It's the default behavior of a kubernetes deployment which we're comparing things to.

> It means you're forced to make everything always compatible between versions etc.

For stateless services, not at all. The outside world just keeps talking to the previous version while the new version is starting up. For stateful services, it depends. Often there are software changes without changes to the schema.

> For a deployment that isn't even making money

I don't like looking at 504 gateway errors

> and is running on a single node droplet with basically no performance

I'm running this stuff on a server in my home, it has plenty of performance. Still don't want to waste it on kubernetes overhead, though. But even for a droplet, running the same application 2x isn't usually a big ask.

The docs don't make it clear, can it do "zero downtime" deployments? Meaning it first creates the new pod, waits for it to be healthy using the defined health checks and then removes the old one? Somehow integrating this with service/ingress/whatever so network traffic only goes to the healthy one?

It absolutely is. Americans dgaf, they're driving gas guzzles on subsidized gas and cry when it comes close to half the cost of normal countries.

Privacy isn't a concern when everything is local
