    I wish my tabs still looked like tabs. With the new design, I keep confusing the active tab state with the inactive tab state. 
    It’s really annoying to see Apple taking something that worked just fine, and then turn into something stupid nobody asked for.

  • EU proposing USB-C smartphone charger standard

    Great. Talk about stifling innovation. What happens when the next generation of USB or Thunderbolt or something brand new comes along. How long will it take the EU bureaucrats to legislate the next charging protocol? As for innovation why would tech company engineers even make the effort to improve charging when they’re staring years of bureaucratic morass in the face to get the new system ‘approved’?

    So the EU has now declared that USB-C is the be-all, end-all of ports. New, advanced technology need not apply. So let it be written, so let it be done.
    Like the Lightning port is ‘innovation’ in 2021 🙄

  • Apple partially patches new macOS Finder zero-day vulnerability

    Apple reportedly patched the file:// but failed to block other iterations of the prefix like File:// or fIle://, meaning would-be attackers can easily bypass the built-in safeguards. The tech giant also failed to assign the bug a CVE designation, according to Minchan.
    As a developer I find it difficult to comprehend that other variations weren't tested...
    Indeed. You’d expect that these would be evaluated after being sanitized, e.g StrToLower(RemoveUnwantedChars(Trim($val))) which would capture all variations.

    That said, which such a gigantic pile of code, there’s bound to be human errors.

  • Apple drops iOS Private Relay feature for users in Russia

    Apple's vision of putting user privacy-first is just marketing.
    They just 'turn off' their mantra in Belarus, China, Colombia, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkmenistan, Uganda and the Philippines (and counting)....
