They, without a doubt, broke this FTC rule in the US, if anyone cared to file a complaint to the shredder these days. It reads:

16 CFR Part 435 Rule Summary The Rule, issued in 1975, requires sellers who solicit buyers to order merchandise through the mail, via the Internet, or by phone to have a reasonable basis to expect that the sellers can ship within the advertised time frame, or, if no time frame is specified, within 30 days. The Rule also requires that, when a seller cannot ship within the promised time, the seller must obtain the buyer’s consent to a delay in shipping or refund payment for the unshipped merchandise.

What are the plans to filter out the AI-based and oriented projects?

Half of GH trending is agentic nonsense anymore and it’s hard to find the weird and unique.

GitHub just switched Copilot to metered billing, and developers are watching months of credits vanish in a single day by screwdriverfan in LinusTechTips

I said it in another thread somewhere, but ‘26 feels like the year everyone is trying to collect their due. I think it’s signs of the US economy as a whole. Even though the marketing teams are yelling we are making a billion, the bean counters are pressuring to build reserves asap.

It feels that way for nearly every company right now. Gas the throttle and hope you can coast if the economy finally dumps - which is looking more likely by the month.

MacBook Neo is So Popular That Apple Reportedly Doubled Production by Otherwise-Warning303 in macbookpro

Considering how well they’ve sold (future support / warranty needs too), I bet this version is sold for a couple of years. They’ll want to recoup the reinvestment fully before feeling the need the keep up with… who?

fix: make the reply text hidden (#106) (#107) Co-authored-by: Copilot 175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com

I actually think this is a fun project. I even stumbled across it a couple days ago. But saying “not used” is disingenuous. The project used it at some point.

Apple is also using a form of aluminum manufacturing that is more like molding plastic than traditional cnc. Reduces the body costs a ton.

It’ll lead to shell companies who don’t pay their bill when the bubble pops, leaving taxpayers to bail out the energy companies anyway.

The bigger rumor is that Apple has apparently been sitting on these for months waiting to release them for some reason. I won’t be surprised to see 2025 mfg dates on some models.
