@npub1t5m…9guy I’d sure like to know how they managed to steal it in the first place.

Amazing, but 90% of my Apple Dev Forum posts go unanswered. Apple should spend a fraction of its billions on technical staff who research and answer people’s posts.

@npub1u24…32pl I abhor the standard Swift style. I find it repulsive and antithetical to reading ease.

@npub1u3f…nne2 Bouqs transit time was three days. The flowers were sad when they arrived. And it cost me a fortune.

@npub1u3f…nne2 @npub1u24…32pl @npub1cuf…6f4c @npub17pe…vcm6 After three failures to actually back up power with CyberPower units, I finally bought a couple of these: APC Smart-UPS 750VA Lithium Battery UPS with SmartConnect, SMTL750RM2UC, Pure Sine Wave, Short-Depth 120V Uninterruptible Power Supply https://a.co/d/d7oQGkq
In particular, they come back on when the power comes back after a lengthy power outage drains the batteries and shuts them down. Which you might think would be standard behavior but it is not.

@npub180v…egld it always astonishes me how bad data like this is. Pity you have to give up on improving it!

@npub1u24…32pl Wow, Apple, that’s downright embarrassing.

@npub1utv…87lr what is opentofu? “OpenTofu is a Terraform fork, created as an initiative of Gruntwork, Spacelift, Harness, Env0, Scalr, and others, in response to HashiCorp’s switch from an open-source license to the BUSL. The initiative has many supporters, all of whom are listed here.”
I guess we don’t get to know what it is unless we already know what it is. I have never heard of any of these these things before.

@npub1sdu…w074 @npub1gag…te3c I will be holding on to my TouchID phone for as long as I can. I hate faceid.

@npub1cwx…0ejd I wasn’t clear enough in my earlier post. I still find it ambiguous. I guess most laws are written like this, using nebulous terms like “extraordinary,” and depend on courts to define it on a case-by-case basis. I just wish the law was more clear and did more to defer to the right to choose, in order to help prevent frivolous suits against individual abortions.

@npub1cwx…0ejd Hmm, I’m not sure this is a good criteria. Depending on the degree of medical intervention, fetuses at dramatically varying stages of development could “survive.” But at what cost, both financial and in terms of health and developmental disability?
I think the legal limit should be “prior to birth,” and let the woman and her doctor decide.

@npub1u24…32pl I find I can’t put a reference to fake swiftdata in a #Preview macro. Does this work for you? It complains about mainactor contexts
