IMO you cannot rely on users without having safeguards in place. Mistakes will happen plus there is always the threat of malicious behavior.

They also sell to people who have a need for status symbols. ;-)

The logical first step for sensitive files is to prevent external IDs from having access. Does Apple sharing have the ability to prevent access from IDs external to the org?

To me the biggest value Apple brings to the table is the hardware lifecycle. Their stuff typically is supported for a decent number of years and OS performance remains acceptable.

Proof yet again that Apple does not design products and services for businesses. They focus is on a particular user experience which has allowed them to get enterprise customers through creatives and execs.

Your Van Halen comment knocked some cobwebs down in my brain. I recalled reading about rider contracts for bands on tour on TheSmokingGun.

"Made famous by Van Halen’s contractual demand that brown M&M's be plucked from the group’s candy bowl"

This. I created a Twitter account in its' early days and quickly decided it wasn't for me. Until recently using a web browser to open links I get from friends occasionally worked fine. Now that the app is required to view some content, I simply don't bother.

I have been a longtime customer and in recent years I have decided I will move on when my current Rokus reach EOL. Ads, poor hardware, and terrible support, already made up my mind. Ridiculous pricing is the cherry on top.

Just two posts before this one we have https://yro.slashdot.org/story...

Everything is funded by customers or taxpayers...sometimes both.

IANAL

It is well known at this point what Broadcom has been up to for the last couple of years with VMware. How is this not some class action lawsuit in multiple countries by now? How is it that no attorney general or some regulatory agency has not investigated and brought Broadcom to court by now?

This. Roku had the best set top streaming device for years. Roku held no allegiance to any platform and provided decent hardware at a decent price. Unfortunately, they started changing things that were not good for their customers. As my Rokus age out I will not be replacing them with Rokus. In the meantime, they get restricted internet access.

3-2-1 rule comes into play. LOL

I'll assume (probably incorrectly) that they $20M was for total sales across all states. Fines aren't enough. The people running these companies need to be held accountable... and that ain't happening.

This. .. did @BeauHD even bother to read the submission?

Jensen Huang to college grads: "Run. Don't walk" toward AI

https://www.axios.com/2026/05/...

Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang told graduates at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh yesterday that demand for AI infrastructure is creating a "once-in-a-generation opportunity to reindustrialize America and restore the nation's capacity to build."

Why it matters: With many college grads fearing AI could obliterate their career dreams, Huang pointed to boundless opportunity as a "new industry is being born. A new era of science and discovery is beginning ... I cannot imagine a more exciting time to begin your life's work."

Nvidia, which makes AI chips, is the world's most valuable company. Huang told 5,800 recipients of undergraduate and graduate degrees that the AI buildout will require plumbers, electricians, ironworkers, and builders for chip factories, data centers and advanced manufacturing facilities.

"No generation has entered the world with more powerful tools â" or greater opportunities â" than you," he said. "We are all standing at the same starting line. This is your moment to help shape what comes next. So run. Don't walk."

"Every major technological revolution in history created fear alongside opportunity," Huang added. "When society engages technology openly, responsibly, and optimistically, we expand human potential far more than we diminish it."

I don't disagree but I will say the screen time in school at least has some kind of learning involved. The screen time outside of school, not so much. Parents also need to parent. Take away the digital babysitters and have your kids go outside and be active or at least read a book if they won't go outside.
