I think I’d prefer if there was a minimum updates guarantee that OS sellers would have to disclose, but even then I’m more in favour of other companies being able to pick up the work by making sure devices have their bootloader unlockable after they don’t get any more updates for X amount of time, rather than add burden to OS makers, because forcing people to support a project for Y amount of years would really harm indie developers releasing Linux distros and the like

Seriously likening a VAC ban with the death penalty?! You can just email someone if you got banned; if you wrongfully died from the death penalty you can’t just phone the judge and ask him to recheck lmao
JustARaccoonto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•BBC under fresh pressure over extent of Reform UK coverageEnglish5·10 天前How are people meant to have a good view of the political landscape and show intent to vote for a different party when said parties don’t get any coverage? Lol what a joke
JustARaccoonto Games•Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And CrashingEnglish2·11 天前Well most review sites give it high scores with the negatives being primarily the performance so at least this time there might be a good game in there somewhere underneath all those shader compilation stutters
Wdym it’s like a couple of clicks
Sure? Impossible. But you’re on Lemmy in the News section of lemmy.world, I’d be surprised if they weren’t.
It’s sarcasm
JustARaccoonto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Nigel Farage says Boris Johnson is not welcome in Reform UKEnglish4·15 天前He cannot be outvoted, reform is a corporation and he holds the majority share.
JustARaccoonto News•US flight attendants push to be paid when planes aren’t in the air: ‘Most of our passengers have no idea’11·17 天前Sounds sarcastic to me
It still works?
I’m confused, why make revanced patches for an app whose developer is actively interacting with the community?
JustARaccoonto Technology•Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed - Louis RossmannEnglish3·22 天前Presumably that will work like test flight does where you can only install the app through an invite system
JustARaccoonto Mildly Infuriating•The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScriptEnglish51·23 天前But they’re not pdf/e-pub, they’re live pages that support changing things in the DOM dynamically. I’m sorry, I’m not trying to be mean but people not wanting scripting on their sites are a niche inside a niche, so in terms of prioritising fixing things that’s a very small audience with a very small ROI if done they might require a huge rewrite. It’s just not financially feasible for not much of a reason other than puritan ones.
JustARaccoonto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification LawEnglish11·25 天前What are you talking about?! Apple was forced to follow EU regulations and allow side loading, they complied by only making it available in the EU, so the EU can tell a foreign company how to do business in its territory. “This is wrong” and you’re just spouting nonsense. If I want to do business in your country I need to follow your country’s regulations, this includes customer and worker protections.
To what end? Are you putting together a tier list? They should all be equally admonished to the highest order, that’s the point.
JustARaccoonto Technology•Google will block sideloading of unverified Android apps starting next yearEnglish1·25 天前Which is just the loophole they’re trying to use now to assert control. This is just technicalities, the end result is that if you want to make apps for others to install they want to be the final say on you being allowed to do that or not.
Then Microsoft makes windows free and monetizes the shit out of services in the OS.
