They should just rename “Find My” to “I don’t care if you’re on Do Not Disturb, call me back now” and be done with it.

I guess I have to pick a new starting word now?

I have listened to https://atp.fm since it was Neutral and in all that time @caseyliss has been my POV character. Through I him I have listened in amused incredulity to the vast array of inconsequential things that the other hosts care so very deeply about.

But this week I was abandoned as he joined them in a long rant about the correct positioning of 3-way light switches of all things.

I still haven’t quite recovered.

Happy staying off the internet because of all the tedious corporate “fun” day to all those that celebrate.

So because of my perpetual frustration with Cloudflare, I’ve made a thing. It’s a bit like FeedBurner, but with an emphasis on fetching feeds that are blocked by poor Cloudflare configuration. If there’s a feed that you can’t read in your RSS reader of choice, consider trying it here. It’s a work in progress, but I would appreciate help building my pool of blocked feeds. Currently I can read all the feeds I care about except 1.

#introduction since I’ve moved servers.

My name is Gareth Simpson. I am an allegedly professional software developer.

I live on a little farm in the middle of nowhere.

In my spare time have an unhealthy interest in all things #RSS and in making #iOS apps for pretty much just myself.

I have written my first professional #ruby PR. And by “I” I mean “ChatGPT and Stack Overflow” because I haven’t the slightest idea how ruby works.

@siracusa I heard your concerns that lawsuits weren’t a great way to regulate company behaviour on @atpfm and I wondered if you had seen this article: https://ianbetteridge.com/2024/03/22/a-few-thoughts-on-the-apple-doj-antitrust-case-from-someone-who-isnt-riding-his-first-rodeo/

It suggests that a conviction and the threat of a bigger future sanction like break-up makes companies self-regulate.

So perhaps Apple will go further for the US because of a vague fear, than they will for the EU where they maliciously comply with the letter of an explicit regulation.
