Same, i used to sub with Spotify, in the last 2 years i've been on Apple music, they even have better collection and playlists of non-english music. Spotify is full of rap music and so hard to discover anything else unless you know what you are searching for.

As we often report here, it’s common for tech companies to help each other improve their security systems by sharing zero-day exploits found by security researchers. Google, for example, does this a lot. But recently, an Apple employee reportedly found a zero-day exploit in Google Chrome – and that bug was never reported to Apple by that person.

Apple has warned that it will shut down services such as FaceTime and iMessage in the U.K. if the government goes ahead with controversial legislation. A proposed update to the Investigatory Powers Act 2016 is currently in open consultation. Members of the public are invited to offer feedback on the amendments, which include a requirement for messaging services to notify the Home Office, a department of the British Government that handles immigration, security, and law and order, of new security features before they are rolled out, and the right for the Home Office to privately demand that security features be disabled immediately. Under current legislation, the latter can be requested, but there is an independent oversight process and room for appeal before action is taken.

They want to keep the top content creators from considering threads. Threads is a real threat to twitter specially with all the issues around twitter atm.

A new deal on data transfers between the EU and US has alarmed businesses and privacy campaigners. The pact, known as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, was announced on Monday by the European Commission. The EU’s executive body concluded that the US offered an “adequate level of protection” for data transfers under the new arrangements. The framework replaces the Privacy Shield, which the EU’s top court had struck down in July 2020 over concerns that the US didn’t provide sufficient protection against government surveillance.

Signs of an escalating chip trade war were evident already in October last year. Now, a set of new strategic measures have further ignited the conflict, raising fears over the stability of the global supply chain, and even threatening to derail the EU’s green transition.

Founded out of London in 2021, Outverse is looking to tackle a similar problem to what the likes of Commsor, Common Room, Threado, Talkbase and Crowd.dev are striving to solve, but with a different approach — its mission is to build what it calls a “full-stack community platform” for software companies, replete with forums, knowledge bases, and product documentation.

Today, SUSE announced that it is creating a hard fork of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and that it will develop and maintain an RHEL-compatible distribution. SUSE says that it will invest $10 million into this project over the coming years. One major open source company forking another major open source company’s project is equivalent to going nuclear. But there’s a reason SUSE is doing this now, and that it will likely be championed by many in the open source community. It’s a complicated story.

this is interesting, specially that we as engineers, programmers and developers all we think about is learning new things all the time, we leave so little to enjoy and improve our personal life.

People are moving away from twitter because it’s full of spam, nudity and bullying. That doesn’t makes twitter any unique and/or worthy, that makes it toxic place to be in.
Freedom of speech and (nudity, bullying) are not the same thing.
Saw this on reddit, good quality tutorial.

I’ve been following this book while practicing on Arduino during the last 2 months, and I found it extremely helpful. Tbh much of the content is already on the official documentation, but it’s more precise and directed in the book. While the content itself is spot on, some of the code examples does not work/compile on the current Arduino ide.

I see your point, but the problem with Lemmy you don't have much control over the feed, say you want to focus on posts related only to Arduino inside a community that also include Rpi and others, currently there's no way to do that.
If Lemmy would implement a tag/topic feature, so you can tag the post from a preset list of tags set by the mods which works as a topic separator/distinguisher within a single community, then using a general and much broader communities would work.
Plus there are an RSS feed per-community, the previous point also applies to the RSS feed.

name.com is a good choice to consider, but they are more expensive than google domains.
If your college/university teaches you anything on Matlab then most likely they have *Campus Wide Access* license. Which means you can use your student university email to register an account with Matlab and gain free access to use Matlab and Simulink software on your own PC/Mac computer. After downloading the software and installing it, make sure you select all the libraries you need during the installation process. Also make sure you are signed-in, in the software itself using your Matlab account, for the license to activate.

the main benefit of this, is that you can self-replace the battery when it becomes excessively degraded and doesn't hold charge as good as a healthy battery. otherwise you'd still need a power-bank for your other tech, such as AirPods or similar stuff.
