I read his post as a typical Apple simp being pedantic.

This is complete nonsense, x86 is far more widely supported than ARM in libraries.

The other poster is right, this is a financial benefit to Apple to abandon their users, much like Microsoft did with Windows 11.

If you want to be pedantic, before that point Intel Macs did not exist; so they couldn't be unsupported prior to that time.

Yea, as a non-finance expert I do question the valuation when they spend 98.2% of their revenue on operating expenses.

A lot of supply chain attacks are compromised user accounts. So its not uncommon for that user, or someone else involved in the project to recognize an unexpected release. Generally it also gives a chance for security companies to detect malicious code.

Ironically of course it also slows down adoption of security fixes so as a developer you'll need to monitor for important disclosures.

The problem is more that tech giants have been allowed to operate in anti competitive ways for decades and have squashed competition.

When apple does these sorts of things they're applauded for being 'brave'

I think its a lot like the problem open source is experiencing. To (dis)prove the AI slop proofs its going to take time from a skilled mathematician.

If the LLM companies weren't incompetent they wouldn't be mixing data and instructions. We've known this was something that should not be done for decades.

Which is why this isn't news. A company selling a service to another company is never news.

He hasn't made enough money yet to bribe Trump for a pardon so he's fair game still.

Don't let your logic get in the way of a slashvertisment for spacex ahead of its IPO. You'll make the elongelicals cry.

I think AC was mostly joking about the the US now wanting a regime change

By your logic as long as they aren't broadcasting it through a speaker its not audio.

While it depends on the precise details of how Vizio architected their system, I wouldn't expect that they'd need to provide what is likely to amount to application source code just because the device runs Linux.
