I’d be surprised if they had net positive income on Tribes 3. A lot of veteran gamers of the series saw who was really running development and decided to stay away. Once bitten, twice shy. The writing was on the wall that it was a dead game back in June.

I see your schwartz is as big as mine. Let’s see how you … handle it.

OP said die and I’m going to take him at his word 😉

So you want to die in a burning boat‽ While some countries in Europe allow for assisted suicide, I don’t think any allow for self immolation while at sea.

Now if you’re looking for a viking funeral procession after your death, I would think environmental regulations would be the biggest hurdle.

I have one like that. He’s so fluffy and soft and his fur gets everywhere.

It’s easier than that: c for ceiling, g for ground.

But they could be shitting right next to you! Menacingly!

Apple has a long history of working against right to repair and third party repair shops. This includes making it difficult for third parties to source the parts needed and changing the designs to requiring part pairing in the name of security. It got to the point where repair shops were buying broken Apple products so they could hopefully source the parts needed.

Looking through what they provided now, it’s basic stuff any third party repair shop could do if they could source the parts. It’s useful. However good electronic technicians can go beyond that and do board level repairs. But that requires schematics and diagrams. A lot of times they would have to get those through other parties who in turn got them through less than official means or violated NDAs.

Guess what Apple isn’t providing? Board level information. This is just doing the minimum the law requires them to do.

I remember when this was just a joke on Futurama. Why does life imitate art in the dumbest way possible‽

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

It’s out there. You just have to search for it.

Just like the OceanGate Titan.

And just like Taco Bell when something goes bad you get to deal with all the diarrhea.

But seriously, shouldn’t this be in !programminghumor@lemmy.world and not technology?

Context: I heard that lemmy will upvote anything. This is literally just a can of fucking beans

And then there was weeks and weeks of bean posts.

My guess: turn failing big companies into failing little ones.

Someone spread the rumor that JD Vance admitted to having coitus with a couch, and the rest was memes.

That isn’t what that article says. It talks about American Rounds and other companies that use vending machine to sell restricted products. A different company Master Ammo found using AI for facial verification to be costly when they looked at it “years ago”. The article doesn’t specify how long ago that was. If it was 12 years ago, which is the age of Master Ammo, I would find that plausible.

The machine for American Rounds was pulled because of “disappointing sales”. Retail space ain’t free, and I bet it has slim margins too.

In any case, the whole endeavor may not be viable in the long run. They either have to get costs low enough to compete with brick and mortar stores and the Big Box stores, or they have to go where none exist while finding enough locations to recoup development costs. The devil’s in the details and unfortunately all the reporting on this has been quick news stories.

Looks like someone tried to archive an archived page. You can see https://web.archive.org/... is listed twice in the url. I just trimmed off the first one then it works: https://web.archive.org/web/20240229113710/https://github.com/polyfillpolyfill/polyfill-service/issues/2834

Yeah, that was my second prescription. The first one was clobetasol propionate which you are only supposed to use two weeks on, two weeks off. It didn’t work very well.

Edit: for over the counter I use Eucerin eczema relief. I also have a jar of CeraVe, but I haven’t used that in a while. I only have to use them occasionally.
