Future isn’t ARM it’s Risc-V. Apple just learned this and they are attempting to adapt.

Not the guy you are asking but I think I could give some insight. I don’t think it’s going to “fail” in every regard but it’s going to decline significantly and become an echo chamber for the extremeist types that are driving everyone away. After all the more reasonable and normal active types have left the extremists will likely turn on each other over very minute details that don’t exactly correlate to their specific world view and it will likely turn into an all out brawl.

That being said Reddit is very likely to pull more stupid anti-user bullshit and send a few more waves of users to Lemmy and spike the numbers some more at which point hopefully has all their mod tools figured out and communities get solved to actually allow for niches to be usable.

The success of Lemmy lies entirely on a perfect timing of Reddit fucking up again before the infighting becomes too bad and people returning to Reddit warn people away from going to lemmy

You really need to take a deep breath and calm down

I hate to be the one to point this out for you but, I’m not the one getting pissy. I also have resorted to insulting people. Maybe it’s time for you to reflect on this and take a break

Yeah you blathered on about nonsense telling me your life story as if it matters. It doesn’t, you can’t try and throw weight around trying to say you have a more legitimate background and understanding and then be absolutely wrong about something. It’s goddam insane, and you should feel bad for trying to manipulate people, it’s not going to work with me but there are plenty of other people who do read the comments and you are doing nothing more than being manipulative. So STOP

I mean that’s a lot of words to summarize you didn’t really get what’s going on. End result there is still no grounds on which to blame Google for any of this and the only one responsible here for protecting the user is Apple. No real way to slice it otherwise but I’ll tell you this much, nobody is asking you to defend the biggest company in the world.

Sure but actually no as that literally wouldn’t be able to happen on windows. Windows will immediately quarantine any flagged files and they won’t be able to launch without the user having to jump through some rather extravagant hoops. Since you mentioned bonzibuddy and search bars I’m gonna go ahead and assume you haven’t looked at a Windows PC in the last 15 or more years so I guess that would explain your misunderstanding on this subject

7% is percent market sale. Not sales. Mac’s have very rapid EOL as you can’t update to newer versions for reasons of revenue so you will so you will actually see more older PCs running than anything and with Mac’s declining sales you will see fewer and fewer as time goes on especially since Intel mac’s are losing support already

I mean, at the end of the day the malware is being allowed to install on the computer is it not?

Care to elaborate on what OSX security and Linux security are?

Rather ironic that your post is getting downvoted

There have been issues with Apple bot army’s on lemmy just as they have on Reddit.

It was already explained in the original article. It’s not what you want to believe but it is the actual situation and I’m not gonna spend forever writing a response because it won’t actually change the fact of you reading things

I think your should read again. You seemed to understand the parts separately but when they came together you got a bit confused

Actually it seems you may have made some mistakes in researching causes of viruses. Viruses have infected Windows machines more in the past as it is a larger target, there are far far more Windows users than Apple and Linux users by a large large margin which means you have a higher target for your attack. MacOS makes up about 7% of the operating system market at its peak and Linux hovers are 2-3% so planning a virus to affect one is not a great idea unless… Microsoft’s security started to become so strong that malware developers now have to seek the open vulnerabilities (see op). Since that’s not understood we can move on

As far as the article indicates the ad itself was not actually a Google fault whatsoever, it actually appears as a Google ad though. The malware itself is installed by other means entirely but the user themselves, the relation to Google here is that the malware already installed on the machine disguises itself as a Google ad. Really, honestly, read the article next time. This is 100% standard malware attack on an unprotected system.

Definitely sounds like it wouldn’t and hasn’t gotten anywhere on Linux or Windows. And if we look at the authors page we can see they may have some deep bias going on. You may want to block articles by them preemptively.

I like how Apple has all these virus issues and their users will go to any length to make it not appear to be Apple’s fault.

Edit: Downvotes don’t change the fact that I am right whether it upsets you or not

Perfected? I think we are still a long way from even designing them at this point. Are you thinking of airships like Flying Whales or Airlander? Those won’t be suborbital

In reality they should have just said nothing, by recalling it and notifying the general public far more people are going to be aware of this. Had they just said nothing it probably would have flown way under the radar

Well one is trying to crack down on people using adblockers and the other is lobbying governments they don’t pay taxes to so that they are allowed to continue using forced ethnic slavery to make their products.
