Great, we have an energy crisis and these clowns want to drive adoption of incredibly inefficient and lossy wireless charging.
Politicians don’t understand tech. Ever.

Apple HomePod vs. Google Home Max: Which high-end smart speaker is right for you?
This is common to most speakers. You should set your iphone on no more Than 75% of volume and let the speaker do the amplification. Otherwise you are amplifying a signal which is already distorted.fallenjt said:Some testers on YouTube confirmed that Sonos Play:3 or even 2 Sonos One blew the HomeMax out of water. HomeMax got sound distortion at high volume.

Tile accuses Apple of antitrust behavior in letter to EU regulators

One could also argue that these companies have benefited immensely from the current system, and the exposure it provides.gadgetcanadav2 said:
That's the wrong attitude. If Apple keeps coming out with services that competes with other 3rd party developers on their platform, those developers will start to not trust Apple and wonder when the day will come that Apple comes out with their competing service and drives them out of business. Or worse, creates disadvantages for these 3rd party developers that wouldn't apply to Apple. That does not foster innovation or trust on the platform that these developers want to use.JinTech said:Tile just know their days are numbered and are shivering in their boots.
Apple TV + isn't drawing people away from Netflix, and iOS users aren't leaving Spotify in droves either.The key difference is Apple still allows Netflix and Spotify to work on their platforms. What they are allegedly doing is making moves to prevent Tile from doing so whilst coming out with their own product which can work. If this transpired then that is anti competitive practice.

Tesla, BMW don't appear to be gearing up to join Apple's new CarPlay vision

Tesla has less than a 3% market share.22july2013 said:So let me get this right... people call Apple a monopoly for not allowing other app stores on their smart phone devices, but nobody calls Tesla a monopoly for not allowing other entertainment apps on their smart car devices. Can someone explain the hypocrisy?In the U.K. the Model Y is the best selling car (not just EV, all cars), Model 3 is in second place
