@ssharwood makes sense if, as is reported, search is also stuffed.

@ssharwood what about people who sneak up next to them and then say "excuse me!" In a loud voice?

@Kels_316 and you have to hire the teen to review the code anyway, amirite?

@ssharwood sure. But I have to admit that when I first heard about a teen stabbing a priest, I wondered "what did the priest do to the kid".

@ssharwood when you hear of a child attacking a priest is your first thought of terrorism or of child abuse?

@rohan_p half serious question. Is he the kinda guy who will put the entire business in a single failure domain?

@Kels_316 @liamvhogan perhaps it's more of an ideology? *ducks*

@Kels_316 I guess that amounts to the same thing, but if you butterfly the chicken you can reenact a scene from Predator to delight your kids.

@chrisg@aus.social @Kels_316 throwing in a few more holidays from a wider range of religions is not a bad idea. Say, if you get more than 5% in the census, you can have some public holidays. That'll really put the wind up the Jedi nerds.

Looking at this graphic, better make it 2%.

@Kels_316 now now, don't go all fundamentalist. There's 2000 years of theology to explain why we randomly close the shops.

@liamvhogan @Kels_316 I have long advocated for a separate licence category for people who can drive properly in areas that had enlarged maps in the Gregory 's Street Directory. A "small maps" licence, if you will. I am full of good ideas, or full of something anyway.

@emilymbender until it turns on them, apparently. How much liability would a software company have to accept to have a therapist trust their tools?

@rohan_p it's exhausting, can't we have a break between the block chain bubble and the genAI one, just a little treat.

@ryansingel fantastic!

So they know they can't make the actual parrot safe, so instead they filter out concepts that might make it respond undesirably.

If this is the way of things, then genAI is a massive bubble.

According to Apple’s lawyers, "no reasonable user would expect that their actions in Apple’s apps would be private from Apple."

I repeat to make it clear: According to Apple itself, no reasonable Apple user should expect privacy when using the device.

So let’s make it even more clear: if you expect basic privacy using your Apple device, you are "unreasonable" (= a fool).

(originally posted by @mysk )

Excerpt from the court document:


"Given Apple’s extensive privacy disclosures, no reasonable user would expect that their actions in Apple’s apps would be private from Apple."
