14 | 1dpz8zk | Shopping app Temu is “dangerous malware,” spying on your texts, lawsuit claims | Comment#1. Regardless of whether Temu is guilty here or not, I'd like to remind people that any service that you can use as a website does not need to be installed as an app. That way it can't get any special permissions to access media/contacts on your phone.

Comment#2. This court is fu... |
23 | 1dq30qb | Big Pharma’s fight against drug price reforms takes weird, desperate turn | Comment#1.

29 | 1dq9czj | Monster 310-mile automated cargo conveyor will replace 25,000 trucks | Comment#1. So hear me out, instead of a bunch of smaller motors to move individual cargo containers, why not have one bigger motor to pull a group at a time along the track?

Comment#3. Of all the places to accidentally rediscover trains, Japan would not have been my f... |
30 | 1dq9jkl | Windows 10 will get five years of additional support thanks to 0patch | Comment#1. Extremely misleading title.

33 | 1dqbv52 | Perplexity’s grand theft AI | Comment#1. ELI5: leaving aside the ignoring of robots.txt files and getting through paywalls (there is no argument there: both things bad and should be stopped, we have morals), aren't all AI tools having the same impact of not sending traffic to the websites? And isn't it the same with every ask to the "assistants"? I... |
34 | 1dqfi0d | Windows 11 starts forcing OneDrive backups without asking permission | Comment#1. "Your computer is not compatible with Windows 11" ~that's a shame.
Comment#2. No, Microsoft, you may *not* have all my private files. Fuck off with your data-gathering.

36 | 1dqgel4 | NASA will pay SpaceX nearly $1 billion to deorbit the International Space Station | Comment#1. Unsurprising, their own SLS has only done one successful launch so far and its already got years of delays weighing on its mission schedule, they couldn't fit a deorbit mission on there as well.

40 | 1dqhqne | Smooth test flight proves ‘new concept’ human-drone design for China’s next-gen fighter | Comment#1. Their last gen fighter is still missing features required to meet the 5th generational requirements. if they managed super cruise efficiency (the thing the USA did in the 90s, and put into production in the early 2000's), they would surely show it off. They just threw some senior generals in prison for corru... |
41 | 1dqhs3o | Canonical's 'distroless' Linux images are a game-changer for enterprises | Comment#1. I don't understand how it can be "distroless". I mean, it has to be a particular distribution, whether it's Ubuntu, Red Hat, or one of the others. There's no such thing as generic Linux - just a kernel with nothing else. |
