Nice looking UI. Also glad I am a nobody. No reason to spy on me unless they want to know what we’re having for dinner. 

Bummer. After 7 years of the same design I’m ready for a new look. I’ll likely pass on this update. 

Because no business that creates a store that has customers that vendors want to sell to should be allowed to make a profit. 

With Tesla, it feels like the car was built around the infotainment center. It's the nucleus of the car. All other manufactures it feels like the car was designed by one group, the infotainment by another, and another group put the two together and hoped for the best. I don't miss CarPlay driving the Tesla. I can't say that driving the BMW or Honda.

If they’re cutting homeworkers’ pay then can we assume Facebook will also be pickup up the heating, electricity and connection costs during work hours?

Why?  The employee can just claim their home-office as a tax-deduction. 

Not so. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed by Trump in 2017 removed the employee home office deduction until 2025. Self-employed and gig workers can still claim the deduction. Note that the standard deduction and child tax credit was significantly raised leading to the temporary tax cut (expires after 2025) many are enjoying.

Besides that, still no. Computer users have been adapting since day one, and will continue to do so forever. 

Reminds me of the 5 pin din plug for the TRS-80 cassette drive and how far computers have come.

Let’s assume alternative app stores comes to Apple. And also Apple adopts the license model that Epic uses for Unreal Engine. 

Like it or not environmental stewardship and sustainability is a product Apple sells. I found the skit an entertaining way to communicate valuable but otherwise really dull content. Imagine presenting in a slide format with multiple subject matter experts. It would take longer to say the same thing and be less memorable. Now look - the Mother Nature skit is still being talked about. What more could Apple ask for.

I will sue Apple, because I am not able to fly as a bird, when having my Apple Watch on my wrist.

And you would be right to sue if that was 1) A feature of the Apple Watch, 2) Others are able to fly while wearing the watch, 3) You can't fly (or fly as well) because of the color of your skin.

And how is this related to Apple news?

For the same reason there is a story about HBO Max and Discovery+ merging into one service. In addition to Apple news this is also a tech news site. You’ll find about 20% of the stories here are not Apple related but are noteworthy in the tech world.
