Apple bows to Kremlin pressure to remove leading VPNs from Russian AppStore
  • shows who they are.

    A corporation. And when corporations have to make a choice, profit will always come first.

  • lucy dacus 🤝 chappell r(ule)oan
  • Ah, yes. Because when Biden did halt a weapons shipment it was forced through by a conservative congress anyway.

  • [People Make Games] PMG Responds to the Games Industry Layoffs
  • On unions and class struggle, and how the higher ups aren't interested in responding to questions for more balance in power:

    It means that, when there's enough of you, and when you've got really, really big sticks, you get to stop asking to share power. You get to demand it instead.

  • Note that the anon user is able to become root without password by default, as a development convenience.
    (-) To prevent this, remove anon from the wheel group and he will no longer be able to run /bin/su.

    "It" does seem like the way to go here, as it is referring to a built-in "anon" user account (best as I can tell).

  • Under pressure on plane safety, Boeing is buying stressed supplier Spirit for $4.7 billion
  • Spirit was formed when Boeing sold its Wichita division to investment firm Onex Corporation in 2005.

  • When a **_serious actor_** appears in a Michael Bay rule
  • Not all of Bay's movies are complete cash grabs, like his recent (ish) movie Ambulance.

  • Supreme Court tosses out claim Biden administration coerced social media companies to remove content
  • But when conservatives are in power it suddenly is a non-issue even leftwing voices get censored.

  • What Netflix has learned from its push into video games
  • Yes. Learn what makes them more money. The limited password sharing crackdown world, so they rolled it out worldwide, for example.

  • Steam announces game recording beta.
  • But how does the EGS exist?

    Because they are able to subsidize it with investor as well as Fortnite money. I doubt it's turned a profit for them.

    Wouldn't exactly call that "viable competition"

  • Fearing Losses, Banks Are Quietly Dumping Real Estate Loans
  • I'm saying that the banks, who appear to be struggling, would like you to save your money by putting it in their system. So they may use it.

    I'm not making any other judgement.

    That said, no clue where the person I replied to got their apparent quote from, as it does not appear in the article itself.

    I always get people telling me to look up at the light to sneeze, which I know is a phenomenon but I never hear anyone talk about mint.

    Something about fresh air just tickles my nose and makes me sneeze. It's especially great when I have a mouthful of minty toothpaste.

    Or perhaps I'm just allergic to going outside.
