They actually have a great product, and they’re canceling it? The new ones were kind of expensive already, but every app supported it and it was very nice

You’re missing the additional list mentioned later on, also includes Lenovo and some others

I know of companies who have already tested and tried this our years ago, didn’t read the article but doesn’t seam very new to me

Yeah this is basically what happened, the vote share for labour was very low, below 40 (don’t recall the exact number)

So the very first assertion the article makes is that this creates a giant database of sensitive information (presumably the license plates).

That’s just straight up not true? How can you write an article about this and make such a basic wrong assertion.

Any reasonable system would work as such: Scan plate -> is it allowed to be here? -> if noy store violation, if yes don’t send data

EDIT:

It seems like they really do be scanning every single license plate and storing it for no reason.

No idea, but I’m guessing the might block payments via their number. (you have to to pay still, besides the calling fees,im pretty sure)

Essentially, yeah (:

You can call/text up to 20 times, or vote online. But basically ripe for being rigged

So that’s an absolute lie, I run synapse + WhatsApp bridge with 500MiB. Dendrite is supposed to be more efficient

I mean, the dilivery company will have to pay for the damages. It’s just scratches, probably a conversation starter of someone sees it haha

Gtk 3->4 made a lot of internal changes, and at least some were related to making wayland work. Wayland “worked” in gtk3, however it was very much an afterthought, and half the toolkit was useless under wayland. Other changes are usually required for changes related to rendering, gtk4 had vulcan rendering which may require some breaking changes. Another thing is just general breaking changes that are good, sometimes you realise some decision was bad, and a new major release is just a way to make these.

From the end users perspective nothing much changes, it maybe looks a bit different, but not much besides that. But a vulcan renderer and being fully wayland compatible are major improvements that also improve the user experience, even if you don’t notice directly.
