What about the wenis?

It’s over, I have the high ground!

Honestly I think it would make sense to remove gender from all forms of government identification… does it REALLY matter to anyone other than your medical practitioner?

Generative AI CAN be privacy sensitive, if you use local models. Most of them are too big to do that though, so AI is almost always the biggest fucking security hole possible.

While that’s certainly annoying, valkey IS the better option.

They REALLY enjoyed that lower risk

It’s technically illegal to not carry your green card. But it’s also authoritarian as fuck to kidnap somebody because they didn’t have it on them.

Guess what, my small business will still be manufacturing things in China. But we will be shipping out of the EU instead of the US. Americans lost at least my few jobs because of the tariffs.

Yeah, you get some offline capabilities (like recording video to local storage) when you have a PWA. Obviously app or not, nobody is going to be uploading video without an internet connection.

Probably doesn’t need to run in the background unless I’m missing some feature?

What? No man, this is all standard mobile web stuff.

I guarantee you that all this can be done in Mobile Safari. I have done it before.

You have to go through the “Share > Add to Home Screen” workflow instead of having the site simply install it for you, so it’s a bit more effort (and confusion) on the user’s part.

Surely all of those things can be done in a browser. You can grant location and camera permissions to a website easy enough. And encrypted transfer can be done any number of ways. Offline recording is possible with localstorage. All of this seems very achievable and effectively uncensorable by Apple.

The only thing it can’t get is App Store search rank.

It was, and the text was originally the same for the man.

Sure, but let’s also not discount the idea that a significant percentage of businesses need no more than a single static HTML page for their website. I don’t find it a problem for a person to vibe code that up instead of hiring a real web developer.

Ehhh, I don’t think the comparison they’re making here is right. Leaning on open source software is not just for lazy developers - it’s often the best architectural choice.

I can’t think of a situation where vibe coding is the best choice except for when speed matters much more than quality, and even then only sometimes.

The world sorely needs this. Very nice work.

Nah man, Microsoft doesn’t give their OS away for free. The ads are just greed on top of an already expensive product.

If they stopped showing so many ads, maybe they’d leave enough memory to run an operating system.

Man, I really dislike these pseudo pixel art things generated by AI - the amount of half pixel artifacts really gets under my skin.
