It stinks that Detroit lost last night as a Wings fan, but in a larger sense, this feels like an epic series, and I think it could be great for the sport if the series goes 7 games.

I think the Pronger suspension was justified, but I don't think it was cut and dry. I gotta respect the Ducks, they seem to be handling the ruling with a fair amount of class (there's a presser link to Brian Burke talking about it on the Versus site)...

You don't believe a Western team can win?

The series is tied 2-2. The best case scenario would be a 4-2 (6 game) finish and the chances are fairly high that it will go to a deciding 7th game.

The two western teams may be so glad they survived the conference final that they may not have enough gas to defeat Ottawa.

That was a really good 3rd and OT. I unfortunately missed the rest of the game. It seems in this series that the Ducks have the ability to completely control the game, but are having some off nights. I suppose that kind of takes credit away from detroit, who have been doing a good job as well. Either way I am hoping for Anaheim to take it.

Ottawa is a good enough team, and I wouldn't be ****ed if they won, but I am cheering for Anaheim.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
