“and f all of the people who want to see these children have body parts chopped off.”

As someone living in a country whey we don't chop off the foreskin of little children, whereas conservative Americans love that chopping procedure, I find this statement slightly amusing.

Should just be a roll up projector screen and you wear the projector on your forehead like a lamp. Also it's a lamp and you can project directions on the street when you're lost at night.

Fuck Elon I got this. Give me money!

Y'all are so stuck in the old linear thinking. Be brave, expand your mind. Rubik's cube phone when?

That'd be cool. Buy one cheap phone frame, and a pack of 8 screen+electronics assys for $20,000.

I would be really happy if you're right, but I sadly think Google's fine here. As far as I understand it, this particular regulation is to prevent a powerful actor (Google, Apple) to use their monopolistic powers to shut alternative stores down. It's not about allowing customers to install whatever and however. Google doesn't shut anyone down with this, so they should be fine. They give the option for app developers to choose if they want to run only on an attested platform - which they sell as a completely optional security feature that nobody has to use.

My guess is if the EU is going to take this further it would have to be regarding a potential monopoly on the attested platforms on the device. Google only offering their own platform as trusted could potentially be seen as another monopolistic behavior. If we're lucky.

I was thinking it was more to do with dancing

You're thinking of Homo Groovensis, the famous hunter dancerers.

It's why men's attire meant to look good

Oh so that's where I fuck up.

Should have just put up a sign for cat soup and silently point at it for anyone who still ask.

Google still allows sideloading, it's the app developers that can prevent you from installing their app from other sources than Google Play. Sideloading an app works fine on Android if the app's developer allows it. Apple didn't allow that even if the app devs wanted it.

Did he grab a hold of you and slap you in the face while talking to you in human language?
