That’s very interesting, actually. Because manufacturers of self-driving cars say they’re only drive-assisted, not autonomous. To dodge liability for their cars causing accidents. If the car is without a steering wheel and therefore fully autonomous, and the car runs somebody over, is the car gonna go to jail?
Has anyone else always had a spare phone battery in the pocket to swap on the go?
Imagine you could just do that.
Now i hope it says something about availability of the replacement batteries…
Due to unexpectedly high demand, the $300 battery you ordered has 5 months waiting list. Payment in advance, of course, for your convenience.
Remember that consumers expect certain things from smartphones nowadays, which will mean that OEMs can’t just go back to the old way of doing things. An IP68 rating would be very difficult to obtain while still offering a premium-feeling device with an easily replaceable battery, for example. These are hurdles OEMs will need to get over to be in compliance.
this is straight-up BS. there were many phones with ip68 and user-replacable batteries back when sealing the battery in a phone was frowned upon. not all but many.
install … a website? is that a thing?
Gotta say, the website works great on phone too. No reason to get an app
That already happened. For example, we have mozilla !firefox@fedia.io
edit: I think it’s a mistake to throw mozilla into in the same bag with the other corpos. The whole truth is a bit more complicated than makes money = bad. In this case I’m happy to take the L
I couldn’t say no to that
I do over all agree with you. Not sure about the non-profit, though. That seems like something for later when the dust settles.
However, as we all know - power corrupts.
Some form of governing body(ies) is probably necessary to keep the lemmyverse from falling apart by forces inside and outside. Right now the fediverse seems to be pretty much free-for-all. If there was to be a governing structure, it would need a lot of thought and careful consideration in regards to its shape, size and strength.
It is actually exciting to see and participate in how things develop.
I mean, it’s an obvious scam. Always has been. They only have a few tech demos, and bunch of polished marketing material. There’s nothing to actually release.
