Yes, but it still deserves the question to be asked explicitly. I don't think most iPhone users looking for a music reccomendation app would assume they'd need to selfhost in order to use an app.
And again, if as the dev he's not prepared to set up his own server for use to pass basic testing, it begs the question of what exactly he's expecting out of his end users and if it's truly a reasonable ask even if they're prepared to self host
Wait, how is this app going to function on release if you can't stand up the basic resources for it to function for them to test it? Every user has to self host their own?
Which brings up another issue: if there isn't an easy way for you to secure the server as the developer, is it fair for you to just dump all that on your end users?
If the gameplay is good and it's not microtransaction hell, I'm up for more XCOM
This is just "android sticks allow sideloading apps". Nothing Amazon specific to any of this.
Lately Ars Technica seems quite intent on losing any quality they had.
What kind of boot licking, inaccurate, non-news shit is this?
The only potential reason for this article is farming engagement bait clicks from people who don't know shit about fire sticks, and from people like us stunned at the stupidity.
Holy shit, formal disclosure of potentially ongoing incidents within four days? With unclear and complicated specific disclosure requirements spread across multiple legalese government documents?
My knee-jerk was "duh, of course they don't want to disclose", but there's some legitimate reason for pushback here.
Sounds like a skill issue on your end.
If your home is not comfortable for its inhabitants, that's something to work on fixing, rather than coming down on your kids for the terrible crime of... being uncomfortable.
They didn't design your home, or choose it. And they have no control besides maybe fans and the thermostat. You're the one with the control, and the responsibility here.
In the winter you can bundle up or use space heaters, but in the summer, it's not like people can take off their goddamn skin.
Get some box fans and strategically open windows at night to get cool air flow through your home or something. Close in the morning before things warm up. Window AC units or swamp coolers for especially hot rooms.
Get proper window treatments/coverings/tintings to control how much the sun heats up the home. Fix or replace your goddamn insulation. Use those plastic shrink wrap things to seal off drafty windows in the winter.
And actually measure the temp in various places around your home. I've seen temp differences of 8 degrees across the various rooms of my place, where the thermostat is in a reasonable range, but an upstairs room with like four windows is a fucking sweatbox.
Hell, my thermostat regularly reads even cooler than the immediately adjacent room because there's open space behind the thermostat in the wall that connects lto the basement.
I'd be useless all summer if it was fucking 78 in my house the whole fucking time. 66-72 is my general range.
Most of all: Your kids aren't responsible for your financial shitshow. You are.
I made the same assumption, but I believe they stated it officially shortly after the game was first announced. Still dumb as hell though.
This is what happened to Occupy Wall Street in the US, and I'm convinced it was intentional movement busting.
Probably the same thing with the climate protests in Germany.
The thought of being stuck with a shitty team and/or boss that isn't technically violating any laws or my contract is absolutely horrifying to me.
I know I'm not the only person who has had issues with suicidal ideation stemming from having such a shit job that in the end I just fucking ghosted it, regardless of losing the stability. Zoning out driving in and coming back to myself to realize I was two towns past my workplace. I don't know what I would have done if I had some sort of contractual obligation with potential fees or legal repurcussions for quitting. My car would probably be off the side of that bridge, with me still in it.
It seems to me like you're suggesting an overadjustment for your current personal struggle of lack of stability, while ignoring other possible problems and secondary effects.
I'm sorry you're going through it right now. The job market fucking sucks.
But making people even less able to leave exploitative and soul crushing situations only puts more power in the hands of the corporate fuckstains that want to squeeze out every last drop of profit from you even if it costs your life.
People who are paid to hang out at the entrance/exits to discourage shoplifting by checking receipts against what's in the cart.
If by countless you mean 8 valid ids of this same singular issue in 100 runs, with an almost 30% false positive rate, then sure.
I'm far more worried about the false positive rate drowning out things.
