Tldr: due to new eu requirements apple decided to throw a tantrum and suspend their support for PWAs on safari. "PWA" is when you "install" the webpage on your phone screen (see the rdrama phone app tab)
As to why they're doing it - to have your app in the appstore you have to pay up. By just sideloading it using PWAs you could avoid paying the fee.

What that means if you all vote yes:
You can't be exiled
All users would be able to see SN posts because they can't block this hole
I may or may not be be stricter on content standards to 'appease' whiners who previously blocked this hole
Posts that belong in other holes will still be moved into other holes
Chud-tier posts will still be moved into chudrama (so far no posts as of today have had to be moved to chudrama)

Introducing Sora, our text-to-video model.
— OpenAI (@OpenAI) February 15, 2024
Sora can create videos of up to 60 seconds featuring highly detailed scenes, complex camera motion, and multiple characters with vibrant emotions. https://t.co/7j2JN27M3W
Prompt: “Beautiful, snowy… pic.twitter.com/ruTEWn87vf
Lots of seethe on Twitter. Discuss the societal implications, and what degenerate thing you're going to make when stable diffusion released their copy in a year!
Also, what will it take for Yann LeCum to admit he is wrong? We'll have AIs that simulate the future and he will still be arguing they aren't intelligent and his model (which is essentially the same thing) is better

For some Apple Vision Pro buyers, the honeymoon is already over.
It's no coincidence that there's been an uptick on social media of Vision Pro owners saying they're returning their $3,500 headsets in the past few days. Apple allows you to return any product within 14 days of purchase — and for the first wave of Vision Pro buyers, we're right about at that point.
Comfort is among the most cited reasons for returns. People have said the headset gives them headaches and triggers motion sickness. The weight of the device, and the fact that most of it is front-loaded, has been another complaint. Parker Ortolani, The Verge's product manager, told me that he thought using the device led to a burst blood vessel in his eye. At least one other person noted they had a similar experience with redness. (To be fair, VR headset users have anecdotally reported dry eyes and redness for years.)
“Despite being as magical to use as I'd hoped, it was simply way too uncomfortable to wear even for short periods of time both due to the weight and the strap designs. I wanted to use it, but dreaded putting it on,” says Ortolani, who also posted about returning the device.
“It's just too expensive and unwieldy to even try to get used to the constant headaches and eye strain I was experiencing. I'll be back for the next one.”
This isn't surprising. Every human body is unique, which is a problem when you're scaling wearable production for the mass market. Comfort is inevitably sacrificed — and it affects people disproportionately. With smartwatches, it often boils down to the size and weight of the case compared to your wrist. With smart rings, it's the size of your finger. Many people are unfortunately between sizes or have issues with finger swelling. For smart glasses and headsets, having a low nose bridge can mean the device just slips off your face or fails to adequately block out light.
But the hardware isn't the only issue. Another common complaint is the Vision Pro doesn't offer enough productivity relative to the price. One user noted on Threads that looking at Figma screens made them feel dizzy but that the device also wasn't applicable to their work. Another engineer wrote on the social media platform X that the “coding experience failed to convince [him]” and focusing issues caused headaches.
“If I'm not using this for productivity, and if I don't love it for entertainment, and if there aren't enough games to play on it - I just can't justify keeping it,” one Reddit user wrote.
For Carter Gibson, a senior manager working on community management and moderation at Google, it's the finer details. Things like futzing around with windows and file management are productivity deal-breakers.
“It's difficult to multitask between ‘windows',” Gibson told me in an exchange on Threads. “Several file types simply aren't supported on the Vision Pro. I also can't see how creating a slide in the VP would be less energy than doing so w/ mouse and keyboard — even if does feel like you're in Minority Report.”
It's hard to say how this vocal subset of early adopters will impact the Vision Pro going forward. Many folks who said they'd be returning the device also noted they'd be eager to try a second-gen Vision Pro. Others emphasized that the tech wasn't the issue at hand so much as the lack of a killer app or comfort. It's also hard to say how widespread of a phenomenon this is. While these users are speaking out on social media, we have no idea of the actual return rate — or what Apple's internal expectations for the Vision Pro are.

90mm planar magnetic drivers and 80 hours of battery life, pretty
good. It replaces my 7yo Astro A40 TR. The wifi dongle gives low latency audio and the range is pretty
insane. PC is in the basement and I had loud and clear audio outside
on my driveway on the other side of the house. Tweaking
the EQ a bit and the bass is punchy but not at the cost of making other tones muddy, highs are crisp and bright. Dolby Atmos brings a true surround sound
feel in games
with much more directional accuracy than the Astros. Major
complaint online
is they are heavy
but I don't understand all the butthurt about it. So far my longest wearing them has been 5 or so hours and I have no discomfort. My ears aren't even hot like sweaty
neckbeards are complaining about. Regardless I ordered some funky Wicked
Cushions with "cooling gel", mostly because they look neat and should
give a better
seal. Another problem people complain about is side tone interference noises that Audeze says is not fixable due to hardware. I just turn that shit off because I'm tryna shut out the world
not hear all the bullshit
going
on while I'm trying to get a winner
chicken
dinner.
Quick update, switched my audio settings to match the capabilities of the headset and darn are these nice for music. Changing EQ only works when I wire the headset
to PC but that's a very minor
inconvenience. These are hands
down the best headset
I've tried. Apples to oranges but these shit on my B&O Beoplay EXs. And the Wicked
Cushions were worth it.
