It's about the restrictions they put in place on those who have bought their products. They make it extremely hard to leave their ecosystem, overcharge for services, and prevent interoperability with other products.

They're only just now allowing RCS to try getting out ahead of these lawsuits. But they still don't allow side-loading (forcing developers to use their store so they can charge 30% on all sales), don't allow third-party app stores, and don't allow third-party browser engines (forcing everyone to reskin Safari).

Plus, in the US, Apple has 55% market share as just one company. The next highest is Samsung at 25%.

So yeah, they can play monopolistic games.

The conservatives are going to run with this, and talk about it endlessly, while the rest of us really don't give two shits about Hunter Biden.

I thought it was some sort of emulation engine that I hadn't heard about.

Dumbass Musk ruined Twitter's brand recognition so badly.

It's so asinine for them not to allow side-loading and third-party browser engines outside the EU.

It's more difficult system administration just for them to maintain control.

It's like conservatives using "Let's Go Brandon" so that they avoid the appearance of impropriety, when really, they're just self-censoring because they're too scared to say it outright.

Where is Life and how do I make them pay for what they've done to me?

Pretty sure my wet farts would be more popular than Ron DeSantis.

I didn't even know it was out. I thought it wasn't coming until later in the year.

There no way this wasn't a flop

I just started using Proton mail's aliases for that and love it. If I see a bunch of spam coming to one particular alias, I'll just delete it and make a new one. So far, it's been great

I have great service with IT people because I do this by default. I'll have already tried some steps myself, so I'll give them info about what exactly works, doesn't work, and things that I can or can't do that might be related to the main issue.

They really appreciate the detail.

I prefer Jedge

Putting it behind the number makes way more sense though, because you don't read it as "dollar 15"

So I petition to make it okay to write "15$"

Temples is a psychedelic rock band from Kettering, England. Their style is most closely related to early Tame Impala and Pond.

As of today, I have a 1 month old. She is amazing and I love her so much, but she's boring! Don't get me wrong, she's difficult and my wife and I haven't slept a good night in a month, but all she does is eat, sleep, and poop. There's basically no interaction.

I'm so looking forward to being able to laugh with her, play with her, and generally start teaching her the world.

How do you feel? What's your favorite stage of child development?

Thanks to everyone's advice last weekend, I've been able to get my milk foam much closer to what it should be for latte art. It turned out that I had way too much foam, which is delicious and I love it, but I was never going to get art with it.

Now come the practice rounds.

I've tried and tried to get actual espresso art, but I can't seem to get it right. I'm certain my foam is perfect because it's silky and thick and flows out of the cup well. Any advice?
