I think they might be overstepping their charter a bit. About the SEC from the horses mouth. I guess someone with too much money that happens to know someone high up, and owned one of the effected phones got all butt hurt.
Really, the app can save it's window location using its own system and then on start up request the initial window placement and size. A good window manager will allow this unless it winds up completely off screen, when it should step in and put it at least on screen.
The sad part is this isn't even hard to do for any competent app developer.
Discovery and consistency within a user interface used to be very important, but by all means you are welcome to go on and keep rubbing your greasy finger all over the screen in an attempt to figure out what those poorly or non-labeled widgets do.
They already have the Gnome Human Interface Guidelines since around the end of Gnome 2, and Its implementation interestingly seems to coincide with the loss of Gnome's popularity.
Funny you mention macOS. Way back around Gnome 2 a small group of people, I think a few had just left Apple, formed a group to create the Gnome Human Interface Guidelines. Within those guidelines some ideas were ok, like consistent spacing within UI elements. However some things like moving the dialog window buttons around started causing internal disagreement and developer grief. Most of those guidelines were fully implemented by the time of the GTK 3 release - please note that is the exact time GTK and Gnome developers started the mass exodus from Gnome.
I see they are still at it trying to do it 'their way', even as their group gets smaller and smaller.
The title bar is the realm of the window manager, leave it there. Too many problems otherwise. What happens when the app is sized down so small half the ui elements won't fit? Oh thats right Gnome only wants full screen apps. What happens if the app hangs? It seems knowing the title of the document is of less importance here too. Pff, no thanks, no Gnome. Leave your experimental UI mangling within Gnome please.
But is it saying they just searched for idiots that publicly posted their bitcoin address under their real name? Wouldn't that be like tracking down a phone number to it's owner because they stupidly posted it publicly somewhere on the web?
It can't be that simple if it's called research, can it?
Sorry to burst peoples' bubbles, but monopoly money is more real than this cryptology (-- why is chrome flagging this as misspelled?) based blockchain currency numbers game.
https is such a falsehood. Sure the connection between you and one site may be secure, and you may actually trust it. But what about all those third party trackers and ad servers that load into the same page? Yes I am oversimplifying and https is about the connection and not the server's security - but as soon as a third party content is loaded shouldn't the underlying https connection become tainted in a way that it has something like one of those big red Xs on it for https+non-https mixed content? Maybe a middle finger emoji to the end user.
I wish for a day whereby disabling loading of third party content is enabled by default - and websites still work.
If you don't use an ad blocker by now, or even better something like umatrix extension - please add one to your favorite browser. (umatrix is from same guy as ublock origin, and sure it has a learning curve but we are supposed to be nerds reading this, and be amazed at all the third party junk on your favorite websites).
A vendor in it for money chooses to backtrack and default away from the new and shiny. I don't think that is about choice and a hell of a lot more about what they think of the current state of Wayland.
If those imports are made with fossil fuels you can't tax because they aren't from your country, all that does is put the tariff on in-country manufacturing that uses taxed fossil fuels. I don't think that's what you intended.
They should use Cryptofornia, the vote will pass in a mudslide. The urban area should be named Leaded California, and advertise with little stickers on every product sold in the states - oh wait.
If it used to work without 'reboots', and now it is failing within the hardware, is this not a defect under warranty? Not that they would have a 'working' replacement at this point.
Yes I read Intels warranty, and they will deny you, but in theory this is no longer an errata and plain old defective behavior until they release an update to mitigate the failure caused by the vulnerability mitigation.
Quite frankly Intel is trying to get something out way too fast, and is looking even worse for it.
I bought a basic chromecast to be able to cast my screen to a non-smart tv. Um it has no sleep mode AFAICS. It just sits there forever changing backdrops (and of course downloading those damn backdrops every minute or so). If it actually had a sleep mode, the TV could turn off after some time with no HDMI signal - which I, like an IDIOT, thought it would be designed to do - but no, the chromecast is always sending an HDMI signal - my plan for a self powering down TV blown all to hell.
So I plugged the chromecast into the tvs usb port so that it WILL turn off when I have to turn off the tv. Gee I hope they didn't get an energy star rating for that poor design choice. Also silly me I was expecting HDMI CEC communication to work too with the chromecast and my LG tv but nope thats an empty promise too. Honestly if a 40ft HDMI cable was feasible I'd probably just run one and save myself the trouble and data collection. For my use it's not much better.
Turns out I don't use the chromecast as much I thought I would, or really much at all.

Only one, the other is now on your head.
Pretty sure you worded the question wrong. Looking at your min-max answer, did mean to say 60 legs?
You aren't by chance an assembly line quality control 'specialist'?
The question does not specify a precision or tolerance, anything else is fudging the numbers - the argument is poor.
It is google, pretty sure they already have countermeasures for that, it is their business model after all.

Aren't they all sponsored by Redhat? I'm thinking the blame should start shifting uphill at this point.

Hamburger menus. Nuff said.

There are plenty available for free, just make sure no one is looking - good luck with latter part.

All third party javascript should be click-to-play at this point.

Is your DNA synthetic? Then I have bad news for you...
Now if they had done this in the DNA of a living and functioning organism, then it would be news to me.

Most consumers will never notice, most of the pancake syrups in the supermarket are just manufactured sugar with some coloring.
And well, another corporate cartel with price fixing experiences bad karma, let me shed a tear for you. As for the trees, I do feel bad for them.

And less like a warning for a product that you can apparently find by looking towards an Italian Security company.

You are supposed to read, that mouthful of a sentence, like William Shatner, and treat each comma as, a dramatic pause for effect.
