many inappropriate relationships and sexual advances on employees while he was at microsoft
edit: you downvote this but cry about horrible the treatment of women at companies like Blizzard, get real it's the same thing except creepybill has more money and clout
From my experience it can take a month or two until the plug is pulled, a lot of people who are discharged to LTACs also don't make it but it takes a bit
the weekly posts like this always come off as self-centered to me, whining about how the world revolves around the author and how it really should've created the perfect community for them and sent it over without any effort on their part
If up to 75% of paying customers browsing on mobile use safari would you serve them a broken website? Remember that 100% of browsers in iOS is safari. Everything else is just Safari with a skin. If I could I would block apple users out with a warning about their broken browser but I doubt any business survive for long if they had a habit of leaving money on the table.
Iphone users aren't allowed to install Chrome. They want chrome, but all they get is a shitty chrome skin on Safari. It does trick a lot of people into thinking that they actually have chrome though.
In the US, I assume? Also, note that app stores aren't the only revenue, and precisely because the web does not work as well on ios devices, this number will be slightly biased in apples case.
It appears to be globally, though it depends on what you count exactly (65% of the total revenues, I was off sorry, but 80% of all subscription revenues). The reality is that the hundreds of millions in poorer countries with Android spend peanuts compared to rich countries.

But whatever the exact number, the point stands. In most cases, not supporting iOS is a silly business decision.
It is not clear to me that even paying for the online streaming option gives you the ability to watch any Olympic event at any time. I assume NBC does not want to give away everything online without a subscription to a cable/satellite TV provider, hence the obfuscation.
> Can I watch the entire Tokyo Olympics on Peacock, including Opening and Closing Ceremonies?
>Peacock will show Tokyo Olympics highlights, including must-see moments from the Opening and Closing Ceremonies on NBC, as well as original documentaries, series, and specials. To watch more extensive coverage, such as the full Opening Ceremony, please tune in to the live broadcast on NBC.
> Live coverage, highlights, and commentary will also be available on the NBC App, NBCSN, the NBC Sports App, NBC's Tokyo 2020 Olympics App for TV, Olympics Channel: Home of Team USA, NBCOlympics.com, CNBC, GOLF Channel, and on the USA Network.
> *Only available for select providers. Call your cable company to see if you have access.
Ah yeah it could be clearer I suppose, fwiw just using NBCOlympics.com and signing in with youtube tv (which I share with the rest of my fam.) is what I've been doing; I've heard of others using a ~$10/mo promo on sling and using that as a cable provider
all in all it's still better than trying to fight nba/mlb blackouts, where no matter who and what you pay you end up having to watch pirate streams (which also exist for tokyo2020)
>> Can I watch the entire Tokyo Olympics on Peacock, including Opening and Closing Ceremonies?
No. Between Peacock and the NBC "family" of channels (NBC, USA, NBCSN), I can see a fair amount. That included the opening ceremony live and repeated in prime time.
Peacock does not have everything. It also has a screwed up schedule. (For example, looking for the replay of the women's cycling road race, it says it was earlier today, 26 July, when it was actually yesterday.)
Even worse, when watching a "replay" of an event, it will switch to something else. (I was watching a replay of the Japan-USA women's water polo match and it switched over to softball, twice.)
Peacock did have good Tour de France coverage; so, they know how to do some things right. I don't know why they dropped the ball on the Olympics.
Remember the wars between VHS and BetaMax, and VHS won because (supposedly) it allowed porn?
Well, now we could see the same thing happening. Oculus doesn't allow porn (because who in their right minds would watch it with their own personal Facebook ID tied to it, with cameras running and connected to the internet?). But a competitor that can dethrone Oculus isn't yet on the horizon. Where is our "VHS"?
No your opinion isn't weird. I agree with you in fact. But we also dont need to share every opinion always (see: "Inside" by Bo Burnham).
Obviously some people like this technology and are happy to trade the choice of using their FB account, nor does your comment contribute any discussion to this cool feature or tie it back to the privacy discussion in any meaningful way. It might be worth letting people just enjoy that news.
I tend to think like you. Somehow we convinced businesses that a mostly-blue collar job gets paid white collar salary but I've been told that SW-engineers aren't overpaid. Most people are just very underpaid.
What are your thoughts on that? I can lean that way just because I have a genius mechanical engineer friend who only makes 60k in his 30s.
If the reduction of developer wages led to the increase of wages for other workers, sure. But of course that won't happen. The reduction of wages for any class of worker will simply lead to further consolidation of wealth.
