Apple blocks dev from all accounts after he tries to redeem bad gift card

>Apple has blocked a long-time developer from his Apple ID after he failed to redeem what support suggested was a dodgy $500 gift card, leaving him unable to work, cut off from personal files, and barred from what he calls his "core digital identity."

>This isn't just any developer, either: The unlucky Apple aficionado in this case is Dr. Paris Buttfield-Addison, a Tasmania-based computer scientist who co-founded an award-winning game development company and has written multiple books on developing for Objective-C, the Swift programming language, and iOS.

>"I have effectively been an evangelist for this company's technology for my entire professional life," Buttfield-Addison said in a blog post detailing his struggle with Apple's account system.

>According to Buttfield-Addison, his account was flagged as "closed in accordance with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions" recently. The only thing he can link the issue to is his recent purchase and attempt to redeem a $500 Apple gift card to use to pay for his 6TB iCloud+ storage plan, which he said failed when he attempted to activate it.

>Buttfield-Addison contacted the retailer, an unnamed "major brick-and-mortar retailer," which reissued the code after suggesting it may have been compromised. Shortly after that, he was locked out of his account.

>The Apple developer said that he's been signed out of iMessage, can't access his iCloud account, is unable to access terabytes' worth of family photos stored on Apple servers, and has basically been blackballed from the Apple ecosystem.

>"My iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Macs cannot sync, update, or function properly," Buttfield-Addison said. "I have lost access to thousands of dollars in purchased software and media."

You can disable Office telemetry with ShutUp10 or the like. And you can make it leaner via Office Deployment Tool.

Look at this, too, I just checked all of mine and not one Anon MELIKED mine or commented @ all. Do you know why that is? Because they are all a bunch of NNNNNNNNNNs but that's ok because I still MELIKE all of theirs and I think they are all interdasting humans and their DESKTOPS give glimpses into their PSYCHES and SOVLS. There's not one DESKTOP here that MENOLIKES. Anyway, let me know and I will be very glad to give it my full attention. I have some guesses for sure but I don't want to make a mistake and hurt anyone or anything like that because I am a NNNNNNNNNN too so it's too easy to be wrong.

Actually, you do use an en dash when one or more parts of the compound are, themselves, compound subjects. So the en dash is there to make emphasize that you read it as "White House"-backed and not as White "House-backed". In this case it's fairly obvious because White House is a proper noun, but still, that's the rule.
It was probably still generated by an ESL-tier EFL, but, you know.
>>
>>107565132
That's not a em dash. The em dash (—) is twice as long as the hypen (-). The dumb clanker who hallucinated this website really said "White House—backed" lmao what is with with JeetGPT and em dashes?

Common Lisp, Ada, C#, Active Oberon, and a lot of other languages actually used for OS development are more advanced than Go. The only special thing about Go is that they tried redefining what "system level language" means.

It's a text processor, its input is the web page and its output is a list of key points. A bug data company would love to know the text of the pages you're visiting, but it's running locally. The model itself cannot take actions other than spitting out text. If the code that runs it was uploading the stuff it processes someplace, you could discover that relatively easily, and it's also something a web browser without any AI components wouldn't have any more trouble doing.
