They’re a little late to the game. Let’s hope for their sake this AI bubble doesn’t burst for a bit so they can make their money back.

There really wasn’t an expectation of privacy with this. This is not a surprise.
Ok
These people are documenting the history of an important part of our infrastructure. One video from a channel in this community documented a 1970s home security system as he was contracted to remove it. It’s super fascinating learning how these things function and watching them be tested. Such content can also help a person get over fear of alarms!

Very noble of her to return that piece of history to where it belongs.
Yeah, that’s why I mentioned upcoming PC support for PS VR2.
Yes.
You’ve nailed it. Ordinarily, Apple is good at throwing its weight (money) around to make things like this happen, but it seems like there weren’t many takers this go-round, so we just got an overpriced, beautiful and fascinating paperweight.
That’s why the biggest use case for VR has been gaming and metaverses. It’s a ready-to-go thing that adapts well, but it’s certainly not for everyone. For my part, I’m saving up for a PS VR2, because it’s adding PC support soon and I already own a PS5 as well. Far, far cheaper than Apple’s device, and likely quite good still.
It’s a flex because the vision pro has the best optics and display technology ever made. It’s stupid because it has no use. It’s not a flex because it’s expensive, it’s expensive because it’s a flex, if that makes sense.
Everyone I’ve talked to that has used a Vision Pro has said it’s an incredible piece of magical technology, but it’s utterly useless.
It’s literally just Apple flexing.
If you have terabytes of data in iCloud, use their mail, contacts, photos, everything? Plus decades of purchased content, expensive devices losing functionality by dropping the iPhone… you have to basically replace everything with something else and it’s tedious especially for a less techy person. This is the reason walled gardens are anti consumer.
I think for most privacy nuts it comes down to “I don’t trust them and it’s closed source. They could be hiding anything in that code.”
And then there’s the people who can’t afford or won’t spend the money it takes to have an enjoyable Apple experience. It genuinely costs multiple thousands of dollars to get into the Apple ecosystem and then it’s massively painful to get out. It’s basically just “corporation bad” because corporations are bad. The only way to be truly private is to not carry a phone at all and use only FOSS solutions.
Oh good. 6.1 seems to fix the only bugs that have personally bothered me. I’m stoked!
Oh to be a fly on the wall in her office as she’s getting briefings on this
In the minds of these people, Hamas are baby murdering killers who must be stopped.
Casualties be damned.
She knows the cost. She doesn’t care.
If you want to inflict damage on yourself you can check the meltdown on patriots dot win. It’s funny and sad all at once.

Oh cool. Racism from a racist. Lovely.
Vuvuzela iPhone
Yeah but the idiots in this case are venture capitalists funding the whole damn thing
