You do know you are literal human garbage, right? Like an absolutely unloveable and unlikable piece of trash, right? Itâ(TM)s obvious to everyone.

Much like Twitter - what on earth do you need that many employees to do, exactly? Ebay has more traffic, but the core product scales horizontally, and they haven't added any new customer facing features since about 2005. Much like craigslist they could have frozen the core product 20 years ago

>The new MacBook Pro models are expected to be "significantly lighter" than the current models.
 
This is the exact opposite of what I want. A macbook pro needs to survive a fall from the passenger seat of a chevy suburban (more than 3' high) onto concrete. Today you get about one drop per corner before the aluminum deforms too much and can't take the beating and the display breaks. Maybe the new OLED are less prone to cracking. At no time in my life did I look at my work issued MBP and think "I wish this were lighter" particularly the 13/14" models

Building your resume to go work at the thought crimes division, huh?

I typed directly into the websiteâ(TM)s text box from my iPhone. I have no idea why Slashdot mangled it, you incorrect and ignorant weirdo.

In fact just yesterday I was complaining about this very thing to a guy who happened to be a vibe coder. He suggested I implement a Captcha.

On my API requests.

This is the kind of âoedevelopersâ who are consuming 90% of the worlds computing resources.

(Typo: the software is about ten years old.)

The problem is ai vibe coded apps. I run a small piece of software with an open API that is about 20 years old. In the last 3 years, my appâ(TM)s user base has grown tenfold. API usage has grown by a factor of about 100,000, even with custom rate-limiters in place. Itâ(TM)s absolutely absurd and frankly, untenable. AI is single-handedly killing any remote possibility of an open web. I donâ(TM)t use AI in my software, but merely because of the existence of AI, the resources my app consumes has expanded by many thousands of times. Itâ(TM)s a repugnant cancer.

So your argument is, "broken window theory applies to highly regulated nuclear waste"

The people who dumped it there are long dead, or will soon be aging out of life anyways. It's everybody's problem now. Being on the literal bottom of the ocean and "missing" for many decades it's probably not doing much harm down there. If the ocean evaporates enough that a human can get within 2 miles of the stuff, we'll have bigger problems to worry about anyways.

Without prior warning

Not only did they add a "no class action lawsuit" clause, but they locked you out of all your already-downloaded smart tv apps like youtube until you did so.

If you need a legally gray area (at best) third party website to use a service, i don't know how that's somehow a net positive

Nice, i posted prior art about this back in 2017 so lmk if apple tries to sue you over any patent on this

Apple et all stopped including charger, cable, headphones etc because it's tremendous amount of ewaste. I already have cables, charges, headphones. I don't need crappy earbuds, if i need them i will buy them. I think the EU explicitly banned pack in power adapter and cables like ~10 years ago? There's already probably 25 USB adapters on the planet for every man woman and child
