Did you know you can pass a bill that states 1 + 1 = 3 ? Like. Your legislature can propose, vote, and pass a bill that doesn't follow the rules of math, science, etc. Representatives don't have to u...

@nprofile1q... The goal seems clear to me here. Websites that allow VPN connections can be held liable.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... As I understand things, Apple has two flavors of “hide my email”. One is used with “Sign in with Apple”. If you use the hide my email option when signing in, it links that email to a list of allowed domains that can send mail. These addresses are “@privaterelay.appleid.com”. If you setup a regular “hide my email” address, it will be an “@icloud.com” address and not be limited to domains that can send.

@nprofile1q... Are the increases from hosting service or needing to add resources?

Imagine cutting all the deals needed to make the Apple News+ app work and then letting it rot for years and allowing it to be a total garbage app.

Finished #Andor the other day and it got me thinking about the sequel trilogy again. We see in Andor how much people sacrificed to get the rebellion started. In the original trilogy we see some of the fight and the defeat of the Empire. And then... the sequel trilogy happened and crapped on it. All of it, nope sorry they actually didn't really win.
