how about supporting packaged Javascript applications that could be loaded and updated from the browser, with the consent of the user?
Chrome Web Store and addons.mozilla.org already implement "extensions".
What's a page?
A "page" is an HTML document retrieved through an HTTP or HTTPS URL. I think PPH is proposing enforcing a stricter same-origin policy. Instead of CORS, the document's origin server would have to act as a proxy to retrieve any third-party resources needed by the client-side script.
What in modern society requires signing up for monthly payments to any service? The only thing that even comes close for the average person is renting a property to live in.
Even if electric power, water, sewer, trash pickup, and gas for indoor heating (in areas that get snow) are included in your rent, other services with recurring payments include home and mobile Internet access, renter's insurance, car insurance, and health insurance.
Even the streaming services I have either have month to month options or bill me for the full year at the time of purchase. I don't need to use any of them as I could always choose to rent or purchase to own any of the content on those services.
A lot of shows on streaming services are never released on DVD.
When I've asked others what has improved about GitHub over the past seven years of ownership by Microsoft, people have told me free private repositories are the big one.
I own, but do not operate, a few IT companies that manage corporations in the $600MM-$1B receivables range.
Based on our own help desk ticket software, our clients have opened 40% fewer tickets since ChatGPT was rolled out to every desk and phone. 40%. I expect another 40% drop (total 80%) by next year as end users just manage things themselves.
I won't downsize as the tickets aren't really generating revenue as much as headaches. One of my engineers had a broken PDF file that took her 6 hours to fix, and the end user spent 6 days trying to fix it themselves with Ai.
But -- the basic stuff? Reboot your computer stuff? Email rejected because you mistyped a domain name stuff?
You don't need a human, and we would probably have outsource that stuff to India anyway next year if not for ChatGPT etc.
Why not make a simple API to that digital ID that would be a simple yes/no to any app or web page's query (permission permitting) to whether or not the user is over X age?
Your suggestion is defeated by parents' habit of handing a phone to a child as a digital babysitter. It's how we lost comment sections on animated videos on YouTube in December 2019.
I spend quite a bit on Discord server services, but I'm out.
GFY, Discord and governments, for mandating this bullshit nonsense.
Until 2009, no other device could play iTunes Store purchases, and there weren't a lot of other legal downloadable music stores. This was one factor for the iPod to iPhone progression. Another was that Google required cellular telephony support in all certified Android devices prior to sometime in the 2.3 "Gingerbread" cycle, which made it impossible to make a direct counterpart to the iPod touch.
If you're using apple music you can play it directly from the phone itself, you don't need itunes at all.
You can play Apple Music from the Music app on the phone. Unless I missed something, you can't play it from other apps on the phone. And the Music app can't play files written by libimobiledevice, only the music library. You need iTunes to send music to the phone in a form that the Music app can play.
My roommate tried that patch with my help, and iTunes stopped being able to sync purchased music to her iPhone.
I researched online and found these limits:
- iTunes app for Windows uses a driver called Apple Mobile Device Service to sync to an iPhone, which (like other drivers) Wine cannot run
- libimobiledevice for Linux can sync files but cannot update the music library
- The Music app included with iOS can play only music from the music library and cannot import files
- VLC app can play music from files but cannot play rented music from her Apple Music family plan, making it impossible to mix the two in a playlist

What is the safe and effective treatment for gender dysphoria?
I'm starting to think prevention of gender dysphoria has to occur on a social level. It would start with cracking down on parents and K-12 teachers who perpetuate gender stereotypes ("you're not allowed to do this because you're a boy") to children in their care.
(adoption doesn't count)
Given the right wing's crackdown on abortion on a fetal personhood theory, why shouldn't adoption be promoted?
Talking to people in public isnâ(TM)t harassment.
Talking to people on taxpayer funded grounds also isnâ(TM)t trespass.
Tax funded?
Not private property anymore.
I own only one Monster cable. And that's because Monster's component cable for Wii was less expensive than Nintendo's.
