If you're reliant on Java, you shouldn't update to macOS Sonoma 14.4 yet

Epic Games CEO slams Apple 'government spyware'
Kolvorok said:Gosh, what a mis-step from Apple, likely to cost them millions... TOTALLY wrong to analyse data on phones without consent. That store of "hashed" data could contain people's faces, it could contain flags, locations, car plates, nudes, screenshots with text... anything a government may be interested in intercepting, imagine Hong Kong right now, Cina, Iran, Hungary or even Western states with a penchant for constantly surveilling and policing their citizens for political reasons... this is UNACCEPTABLE and I will, heavy heartedly, after 35 years of non-stop almost evangelical Apple ownership, have to switch to another phone and/or computer if this function ever came online. -
EU planning second try at uniform digital wallet for ID, payments

The EU has become a bunch of lifetime bureaucrats trying to legislate and birth
technology
That is not how it works
Electronic IDs and passports, digital certificates etc already exist across the EU.
I can update the the digital certificates on my ID Card using just my biometrics. I can obtain my digital 'signature' from government for use online etc.
These technologies already exist but they are not harmonised across the EU.
Logically they will be improved upon and integrated but issues that only governments can decide on have to be tackled (and are being tackled). Privacy, security, legislation, enforcement...
The EU is perfectly able to 'birth' technology and has been doing it for decades. It normally does it in conjunction with partners.
Here's a recent example :
https://www.european-processor-initiative.eu/project/epi/Name your Top 3 EU tech companies today
1. ASML (without it, no Apple Silicon!)
2 and 3: take your pick of Siemens, Bosch, Airbus, Ericsson, Nokia, Atos, Philips, Lightyear, Thales
I am sure there are more, but this should suffice for now.

Hyundai and Kia confirm 'Apple Car' talks have ended
GeorgeBMac said:loopless said:gmgravytrain said:So much for going to the Apple website and clicking on the AppleCar product section. I'm sure Elon Musk is laughing harder now than when he became the richest man on the planet. It's already game over for Apple when it comes to EV sales. I can understand why Wall Street is going to put most of its money into Tesla rather than Apple. Big investors are far more excited over EVs than smartphones because share gains will be much higher for Tesla than Apple. EVs have replaced cloud storage as the low-hanging fruit for making unlimited revenue. Apple has now missed out on both. For every Tesla Model S Plaid Plus sold, Apple will have to sell 100 iPhone 13 Pro Max units. Apple shareholders are not going to be happy with that thought. Tesla has now secured the necessary investor mindshare to permanently have a P/E of 1400. Apple will struggle to hold a P/E of 40. Musk wins again as the CEO with the Midas Touch.
Betting against Elon Musk is a bit like betting against Tom Brady because both have variety of weapons at their disposal and neither likes to lose.
