  • 2021 Apple TV 4K Review: Seeking a blockbuster, given a Band-Aid

    IDK, supposedly, by purchasing, I am going to get a year of TV+ @ $5 per month for 12 months, and the remote is well over the top worth $59, especially finally with the mute button, I mean just the mute button!

    But this comes down to:

    $179 - $60 - $59 = $60?  For a Complete new TV 4K+ that will play full frame 60fps? possibly 120fps some day?
    I haven't run test yet, but I am thinking this is gonna play games at 4K/60fps instead of 4K/30fps too.
    This is for actually Apple Coded Games, not "ported games."
    Not to mention this supports YouTube HDR at 60fps?

    In summary $60 for an TV 4K+ is pretty much well worth the price. IDK what else you are looking for...

    p.s. Just confirmed I have a game, I am working on, and I compiled with Xcode 12.5, and the game no longer runs at 30fps, the game runs at 60fps!!  woot woot

  • Apple Silicon is why 15-inch MacBook Air was possible at all

    I would say the super THICK 16-inch MBP is the reason why the 15-inch MacBook Air was possible, really...

  • Apple told EU regulators it has three browsers, all called Safari

    The DMA is a bunch of BS. Apple should send a message to every customer they know about in the EU explaining the situation, stating that they will stop doing business in the EU, and follow through with that if the DMA isn't repealed. It's in their long-term interest, as compliance will mean giving up their competitive advantage and that will kill any company after a while.
    Yeah, I’m sure you enjoy that fantasy world you live in, but here on Earth that’s never going to happen.
    How do you figure tho?  If the EU keeps slapping the major tech companies with $40 Billion+ in eventual fines PER YEAR, it's like in the END, Apple is going to have to say were not paying goodbye, or lose all profits to the EU and make no money?  They're already hampering so many tech companies.

    The EU regulators just want to sit up in their high chairs and dictate tech policy, but not actually do the WORK to enforce the policies, and it's the US tech companies duty?!?  That's nuts...

    Right now the EU looks at how much profits a tech company has and just decide to take a %%% cut.  I mean in the old days fines were like "OK $5 million fine."  Now it's like how much profit do they have?  We're taking 25%!  That's extortion!

    This is the most disgusting abuse of power without even having to have VOTING in place, it's just their Government dictates to US Companies and they must abide.  It's not even a tariff, it's BEEEEYOOOND!

    Get a clue, they're TYRANNICAL!!

  • Apple insists 8GB unified memory equals 16GB regular RAM

    I think you guys are missing something.

    For 10 years-ish prior to the M series Apple Silicon, Apple was making do with the A series Arm Chips in iPhones AND iPads,  using only 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 GBs of RAM, for nam 10 years!

    Then they broke out the M1 with 8GB, and some have 16GBs sure, but they HAVE experience under 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 GBs of RAM workloads.  I bought an M1 8GB MacMini, that thing is a beast STILL...

    Laters...

  • Hands on with Apple's new 15-inch MacBook Air at WWDC

    I get tired of seeing posts like this: "We tried Final Cut Pro and..."

    It's like to me this is a Student laptop, or laptop for people who need something for Starbucks.  I mean don't get me wrong that is such an A$$hºl3 thing to say, but Final Cut Pro? Why oh why...

    It's literally an iWorks laptop (Office), email/calendar, Safari (Chromebook)!  Lightweight work anybody?

    But every time it's like we've got this tiny small laptop and "Here's how FCP did on it". WHO CARES!?!

    Like someone before me posted, "If someone wants to do FCP, (especially REAL FCP), they're gonna get a Pro Line machine, yeesh...  I mean come on we all know it's gonna run FCP, but are you really wanting this thing to spectacularly perform?

    Laters...

  • Apple on iPhone 15 Pro: 'The best game console is the one you have with you'

    "we hope Apple may finally begin to take seriously." – author

    Really?  "Finally" and "Begin"?  This culmination is well over 5 years in the making...
    They didn't just begin, dude, gees...  To me the whole strategy of Apple's seems they have been lurking around the back, and are about to spring inside and go nuts on people!

  • Seven years later, Apple was right to kill off the 3.5mm headphone jack

    BT5 is so good, and BT5 + H1 in AirPods from your Watch even, while streaming music from LTE, is also SO AMAZING, it's like come on...  And the the thing is if you have that 1% use case, then break out the adapter.

    BT3 was horrible (BT4 bearable), but walking with a headphone cable flopping around getting in your arms ways and such PLEASE...
