The irony isn’t lost on me!

Most likely an unpopular opinion, but I took this opportunity to try something new and made the switch to macOS at home as my daily device. If I do end up gaming, I’ll probably just get myself a Steam Deck.

Now that 4.3 is done, our focus for the next release will be on implementing the highly requested features of quote posts, as well as the ability for server operators to subscribe to managed blocklists, which along with our new initiative of pluggable fediverse discovery providers should make running small and medium-sized fediverse servers much more viable; and with Ghost entering the fediverse, further improving how long-form content from other fediverse platforms is displayed within Mastodon.

Personally, I’m looking forward to the quote posts. Hopefully it’ll make discussions easier to read.

Good advertising strategy.

wow

So one banana.

The actual total two-way communication distance between Zhang and his patient was more than 20,000km, a considerable challenge since longer distances can cause more latency, or delay, between the surgeon’s console in one location, and the response of the robotic arms at the other location.

In this case, China’s 5G telecommunication network helped to lower the delay to a 135 millisecond latency, less that the 200 millisecond latency that various studies have identified as ideal for telesurgery.

I never would have guessed Cyber Surgeon could be on the Work From Home bingo card.

Semi-related but I was thinking about this earlier this year, and I was wondering about the feasibility of posting bus cancellations via the fediverse instead of via a bussing company’s website or email.

Well now I’m calling my children cross-legged goblin tyrants in public.

Looks interesting until you close the keyboard cover. Talk about lumpy.

The goal is to overhaul and replace everything by 2027. It’s crazy to think how much technological progress will be gained and lost in that short span of time.

The relevant info here being:

In addition to updating its streaming music rules, Apple today also added games from retro game console emulator apps to the list of permitted software allowable under guideline 4.7. Guideline 4.7 permits apps to offer HTML5 mini apps and mini games, streaming games, chatbots, game emulators, and plug-ins.

Apps may offer certain software that is not embedded in the binary, specifically HTML5 mini apps and mini games, streaming games, chatbots, and plug-ins. Additionally, retro game console emulator apps can offer to download games. You are responsible for all such software offered in your app, including ensuring that such software complies with these Guidelines and all applicable laws.

Game emulators have managed to sneak onto the ‌App Store‌ several times over the years by using hidden functionality, but Apple has not explicitly permitted them until now. The rule change that allows for game emulators is worldwide, as is support for apps that offer mini apps and mini games.

Just in time for the M3 Air.

That’s great news. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

Thanks, I’ll check it out!

The Voyager app is essentially Apollo. It’s missing some things, but it’s close.

I’m surprised I could only find one in the wild. Even the reviews are blatantly generated.

Hubris?
