Nope! And yet they try to sell it as an open system lmao

Apple: only implements a proprietary graphics API

Also Apple: Why does no one make games for my platform??

Still disappointing that it isn't using a proper IR illuminator. Apple's Face ID is still better, and the DyNaMiC iSlAnD doesn't take up that much space. I've adjusted to having a fingerprint sensor on my Pixel 6 Pro, but the thing is so much slower.

They really don't. It's not like after 10 years your battery just explodes and stops working. They lose a little bit of capacity and work just fine.

I have a 5 year old EV with barely any battery degredation. That I bought used!

Y'all are literally my favorite two instances in this whole bitch keep it up!!

Glad to see some other normal people for once 😅

The Time Article they're referencing is worth a read. Excellent reporting, and there's no excuses for Apple and Foxconn here.

Have you considered just using the user's browser font via sans-serif?

I did this on my website some time ago and honestly feels like it is the best way. You're repecting the user's wishes if they have a custom typeface specified, and the defaults on most OS' are good these days otherwise.

Plus, you save some network requests and page size.

given I am a woman who is currently on the internet, I am aware there are women on the internet.

thanks for explaining that for me 😉

[A trans person] joined the Discord server and made a big deal out of their pronouns [..] because they put their pronouns in their nickname and made a big deal out of them because people were referring to them as “he” [misgendering them], which, on the Internet, let’s be real, is the default.

Damn I didn't know women didn't exist on the internet! Also "making a big deal out of ones pronouns" is almost never the case, it's always just a normal request for the respect of addressing someone properly.

Nope, just the CEO of the company that has regularly overridden the decisions of his engineers, driving anyone with any actual experience away.

Autonomous vehicles built by hundreds of first-year software engineering graduates seems like a good idea though.

Why did they feel the need to to publish his daughter's deadname? It's truly not relevant or needed at all.

There's no good reason. There never is, other than the reddit mods wanting control and not wanting to share with those who already built community on Lemmy.
