To see McCarthy calling for an impeachment, despite a law the republicans themselves made to stop trump from getting impeached during his term, is comical. Literally elementary school logic.

Did you clear the history? You probably didn’t do that.

Is it even possible for them to lobby a lawmaker at this stage of the bill?

I know they ritualistically make third party software and tech incompatible, but we do have recent cases in our favor.

HP had designed the scanning functionality to not operate if the printer didn’t have any ink.

What competitors? I genuinely don’t know of any other tech companies with exclusive ports.

Apple isn’t in charge of Right to Repair.

This is what I was thinking. Seems to be the simplest answer as well.

That sounds like a pleasant little dream you had. A good nap.

Honestly though I can’t even comprehend how that could ever happen. What events would have to take place? Teddy Roosevelt coming back from the dead?!

 

I believe this is genuine support of the bill from Apple. Between Right to Repair winning in Massachusetts and the EU demanding compliance, I think Apple decided to flip the script. They would want to continue the illusion of customer friendly tech.

I love inkscape. But inkscape never loved me back. I’ve accepted this and continue to use inkscape unconditionally.

You told someone that your sister caught lemmy. Then you told that someone that you want to see their ballz. Did your sister tell you that also? Did you let her see your ballz?
