Really seemed like this was inevitable - it will be interesting to see if their fair use defense pans out.

I don't expect it will, and I'm worried of the impact of that precedent on the legitimate fair use circuit...

Depending on your usage, wired (due to being slow charging, typically) can actually drain the battery faster than it charges.

But since you're using it tirelessly, you can use a fast charger via your 9v outlet (or other fast charging USB).

It sucks it uses so much power, but you're probably better off if you need to charge your phone anyway

Protip: Many cars use slow charging USB 2.0 for wired Android Auto - if you use this, you cab instead plug your phone into a fast charging outlet instead

Yes please!

The whole buffer/quick record that's been added to video card drivers have been a boon for capturing those blimo and you'll miss it episodes of hilarity.

Pretty sure it actually predates Apple's version too...

This is exactly why restaurants shouldn't use QR codes as menus, they're attack vectors - anyone can just come in and slap on their own QR sticker.

Not yet - it has an API but any bridge hasn't been built. (To my knowledge)

Tbf you weren't required to watch, just had to follow the link in the article to the gleam page.

I'm sure the robots will enjoy their new OLED though.

I just use the ping integration of Home Assistant, simple for me since I've already got HA running.

That functionality only works with Google Keep. Google killed off integration with third party apps early this year.

I've just sworn off using it and using the app we were already using manually. Sort of hoping the year of voice will eventually produce a viable replacement because I'm sick of Google killing shit off and forcing you to use their app. "Be different, not the same" 🙄

Hopefully HIPPA will be enough to actually force some punishment to the company.

Leaking half of the US populations' SSNs wasn't enough

 

3.12.0 now available!

 

Instagram has introduced Immortal Objects – PEP-683 – to Python. Now, objects can bypass reference count checks and live throughout the entire execution of the runtime, unlocking exciting avenues...

 

Posting for the whole Steering Council, on the subject of @colesbury’s PEP 703 (Making the Global Interpreter Lock Optional in CPython). Thank you, everyone, for responding to the poll on the no-GIL proposal. It’s clear that the overall sentiment is positive, both for the general idea and for PEP 703 specifically. The Steering Council is also largely positive on both. We intend to accept PEP 703, although we’re still working on the acceptance details.

 

Congratulations to the five new Board members-elect!

20 standard library modules are being removed in 3.13 as stipulated in PEP 594, so called "dead batteries".

 

The plan for 3.13 is similar to early plans for 3.12.
