wow, looking back I see that I was just dabbling in ASP.NET. I remember those days... that was before I even knew what PHP was. I sure have come a long way since then....

I figured out my first question on my own, but quickly had a second and the helpful (and speedy) responses made me stay.

UTAKZ!!!!!

I found Neowin through my brother..... UTAKZ. As many on this board already know Utakz or Benjimen Lucas died on January 13th 2007 in his apartment of smoke Inhalation...... The Apartment building fire also took the lives of his and my other two siblings ...our sister Angel (17) and brother Quentin (14). I only know that BEn loved to use this site among many other and to share his knowledge of computers to others. Many people associated with this site he considered friends and they also thought well of him. As I read through old blogs and post of yours I noticed the reations of his death among members and how it affected you..... If you knew him I would love for you to contact me. I have had such a hard time with this..... but to know anythign or memories you may have of my brother would mean the world to me.

Much Luv

God Bless UTAKZ

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
