Sure, but that’s a different problem.

In an emergency situation it should be illegal. Because too many people want it shouldn’t be. Annoying, shitty, sure. But supply and demand is not getting overturned.

No one needs Wendy’s. A lot of vocal people are annoyed with all this stuff, but I think it’s not their core customers being vocal. I for one stopped going there when their app started allowing me to order, but the restaurant receives a payment failed notice and never makes my food. Been through support multiple times and no one knows anything. Then I tried to relogin and Google login was down for weeks.

DRM is mandatory in any spec you expect content owners to support. We don’t have to like it, but it’s absolutely not going away.

LastPass hack happened due to a developer logging I. On their home PV which had an outdated and vulnerable version of Plex installed. Swap outdated for “maliciously forked” and now attackers have legit code that can run for months before they use what they’ve injected to take over.

Isn’t that what’s happening in the EU?

What’s the point of it on phones?

JPL doesn’t get enough credit. We just taken for granted that most NASA missions succeed. Space is incredibly difficult.

I had to do a lot of presenting in college, which is more or less the same thing. There were peers who struggled with that, but they always talked with the Professors and I never came across a hard ass that would penalize them for it. Might not even be legal if it’s a medical condition.
