IMO its fine for vendors to abandon their products but they should be required to release all technical documentation and software used with the device into the public domain so enthusiasts can continue where companies stopped.

Does it have “WE DO NOT BREAK USERSPACE!” in golden letters somewhere?

Well, here’s the important part:

I have never done data forensic

So yeah, I didn’t know that at the time. Anyway: Which tools are you talking about in particular?

A friend asked me to atempt data recovery on some photos which ‘vanished’ off an USB stick.

Plugged it in, checked for potential hidden trash folders, then called it a day. Firstly I havenever done data forensic and secondly: No backup? No mercy.

Not sure what you are talking about. I did not edit any of my comments in this thread.

Well, if you want to dive into the history I’d argue “the Arabian nations shot first”.

Still, summing up the last ~80 years of Israeli history doesn’t amount to a genocide comparable to the Nazis. Again: Israel did commit atrocities, but not on the same level as the Third Reich.

No, it does not. As I said, I think the current events including the ongoing situation in the westbank and other fits the definition of a genocide. But it is thankfully still not the industrial-sized killing complex that was the Holocaust.

Well, the comparison is quite bad. Unlike the Jewish people, Hamas did shoot first. However, Israels actions firmly cross into Genocide territory. So Genocide yes, Nazi Genocide no.

“There is no other matter relating to his resignation that needs to be brought to the attention of the shareholders of the Company”

Basically all illegal drugs started as legal drugs aka medicine (Opium, Morphine, Heroin, etc). The distinction is a relatively recent development. Even today a drug store is a reputable business. A drug den not so much.

As a php dev who actually writes clean code while cleaning up after other people because Getting things done is more important: Don’t give people the tools to write shitty code.

Sure, could be/was a lot worse than today. Still, PHP gives one way too much rope to hang themselves with.

My team is currently exploring rust as an alternative because we have to do a lot of api calls and data crunching real fast. So rust?

As a PHP Dev: Please avoid PHP unless you have to use it.

They are greedy fascists but they are not stupid.

AFAIK it won’t and should you still get a bottleneck you can limit the maximum resources a service may use.

If you are able to listen to a German podcast, I highly recommend Jung & Naiv’s Episode with Kai Strittmatter on this topic and China in general.

Well, they do provide the AppStore and the whole underlying infrastructure. So a fee in and off itself is not unreasonable.

However, since the AppStore is the only channel for selling/downloading apps it reeks of monopoly (which Apple is rightly being investigated for).

“New therapy”? Soldiers have been drugged for ages, before and after combat.
