Didn’t read the article, or follow the news enough to be able to make a claim on what they should do, huh

No?

I mean, if you stretch those airquotes pretty hard, but not sure why you’d compare those people to this case

Plausible, but is it likely? Enough to be even remotely worth it…?

It’s an old code, but it checks out

To me it is.

Is Prime Video something that people sign up for a d would cancel? I thought it was something they just happened to get when buying the express shipping package.

I’m not. Pretty happy here overall.

Don’t be fooled. Most went back.

Yes, they do.

Would asking or commenting in the older thread make sense in that case?

At this point, the best time to fix it is now.

Even still, use nitter or something if you really have to.

Man stop linking to twitter

Great!

Even if true, someone can both be a piece of work and successful.

Like how a guy can be a complete moron piece of shit AND a top neurosurgeon.

Also that person can be a steadily worse neurosurgeon and become more and more just a moron piece of shit.

I’m not even remotely a fan of the guy at this point, but from everything I’ve read, a lot of it was actually because of him.

Tesla too.

But also a lot of the negative parts of those companies, and failures. And at the Boring Company. And TwitX, etc.

Whatever contributions he’s made are rapidly evaporating, though. He had plenty of problems 1015 years ago, but the last 5 have been a massive, rapid slide in his contributions, reputation, etc.

Hardware-wise? Yes, some of that too.

App bundles have virtually no relationship with resource forks. I guess you could say that App Bundles COULD include SOME metadata that you could have included in Forks, including the idea that something was an application or not. But that’s about it.

On the NeXT always being Apple thing - I mean, some of it maybe was spiritually Apple, and eventually it was 100% Apple. But we’re splitting hairs.

The smartphone case is one where I’d say they largely did invent the modern smartphone. I mean, they didn’t design every component from the ground up, but so much of what went into that first iPhone was new and completely redefined things, to the point where these interfaces and design languages still define how virtually every smartphone still works 15 years later.

Similar.with essentially creating the modern tablet market, instead of just trying to sell a reskinnrd desktop OS like everyone was trying to do at the time. But even that was 90% influenced by the iPhone (and its original non-phone design)
