  • Sobering revenue stats of 70K mobile apps show why devs beg for subscriptions

    Jump

  • I’m starting to suspect 99¢ isn’t a sustainable price point.

  • [Analyst claims that] Apple’s First Foldable Device With An 18.8-Inch Display Will Run macOS, Reserving iPadOS For The iPad Lineup And Marking A Shift In Product Strategy

    Jump

  • This doesn’t make sense as described. The Mac and its apps are optimized for keyboard and mouse. A tablet form factor would at a minimum require Apple Pencil; fingers aren't precise enough. Combine that with the terrible iOS/iPad virtual keyboard and it does not seem compelling.

  • Saturn has 128 new moons – more than the rest of the planets combined

    Jump

  • Moons vs. dwarf moons? (Sounds like a fantasy novel series.)

  • I have been using it and it works well.

  • [Article] The forgotten street found behind a hidden library door

    Jump

  • Discovered in the 1990s. It’s been known/used for decades now.

  • Is there any proof behind the idea that "reddit is filled with bots"?

    Jump

  • The repost bots often use oddly-phrased headlines -- often commenters will even talk about how weird the headline is. I can’t tell if the posters are actually bots, or if they are content farmers from certain countries. (The odd phrasing may sound natural in their language.)

    Another tactic is to post an obviously incorrect headline to draw engagement, like mis-identifying a picture of the Empire State Building as Chicago.

    Both of these happen frequently with image posts.

  • If a word can have as many meanings as we assign to it; can we assign every meaning to one word?

  • Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

  • If you are an American, how are you preparing for the upcoming tariffs and possible trade war?

    Jump

  • The CPI is a key economic indicator. It’s unlikely that banks and markets would tolerate that kind of meddling.

    But, if the CPI was changed for political reasons, there are other similar stats.

    In plain language: Wall Street can make or lose billions of dollars based on correctly/incorrectly forecasting this stat, so you can bet your ass they have accurate data. Some of it is private; some is available to paying customers. Even if the data is not public, it is often publicly characterized, for example, in economic forecasts and in publications like The Economist.

    Some examples of alternative CPI sources are: PriceStats and The Economist’s Intelligence Unit. Both require paid access.

    Be aware that freely-available stats may be published with political agendas, by Fox News conspiracy theorists, etc.

  • iOS animated app icons

    Jump

  • Apple has not made the necessary APIs available. Only those two apps have animated icons. They’re made by Apple and so they are able to use the private APIs needed to do it.

  • Just a totally normal ad from 1971

    Jump

  • It’s real. House & Garden Magazine, December 1971, page 127.

    Also see the ad for “Lady Alsons Personal Shower” on page 28, and the Insta-Jet Propane Flame Gun, only $9.99, on page 113!

  • Wow, it’s impressive that by this time next year they expect to be flying customer payloads on Neutron.

  • Apple put the Magic Mouse’s charging port on the bottom again

    Jump

  • Is this true? I don’t use a Magic Mouse but my Magic Trackpad and Apple wireless keyboard both give low battery warnings.

  • Chatbot that caused teen’s suicide is now more dangerous for kids, lawsuit says

    Jump

  • Or they changed the headline and due to caches CDNs or other reasons you didn’t get the newer one.

    archive.today has your original headline cached.

    Thanks for posting. While it’s a needlessly provocative headline, if that’s what the article headline was, then that is what the Lemmy one should be.

  • That is odd. It’s not what I see:

  • What should be in butter?

    Jump

  • Salted butter is a condiment.

    Unsalted butter is an ingredient.
