Apple Pencil functionality compromised with third-party iPad parts
If I'm a pro, using a "pro" device, why would I want to risk my livelihood with ill-informed repair people? Which is what this article really highlights.

Microsoft makes Outlook for Mac free
I use Office at work (always have), and to this day I despise that ribbon, from the day I first encountered it in 2007. You speak the truth.DAalseth said:
That’s a major reason I don’t use Office Apps. sure I could use Word to do Legal Footnotes. I don’t ever need to do those. Sure I could use Excel to do Statistical functions. I don’t need to do that. The functions I need are buried under those that I don’t. Add to that the Ribbon, the single worst user interface ever created by man, that Microsoft took and set up in the absolutely worst way possible, and you see why I hate Office Apps.jimh2 said:We should be paid to use Outlook. All of MS products are bloated to the point 90% of the features are worthless to most users.

How the Apple-Goldman Sachs relationship became an unhappy marriage
I get the squeaky-wheel syndrome in this thread, but I’ve got to say, my experience with Apple Card has been the best of many decades of credit card experiences. I have turned to them a number of times for various issues, some mine, some vendors’… and they haven’t let me down yet. And messaging is arguably faster than waiting in a phone queue.
I dread the day the status quo inevitably changes.

Inside Apple TV 4K -- the best addition to your TV set
“You just may get a bit bored of having to enter your password over and over since there's no Touch ID or Face ID.”
This statement is untrue for the US, if you’re using the Remote app on your relatively recent iPhone with Face ID and Wallet enabled. Purchases are handled just like Apple Pay, with a quick face scan and side double-tap. -
Updated ambient light, proximity sensors in 'iPhone 7' prohibit use of legacy cases
I haven't used a screen protector since my first year of 4s ownership. It rode around my pocket alongside change, a nail clipper, key ring. Never any screen damage, and the tactile feel doesn't suck.
Same goes for my SE.

Resisting Apple Pay, Walmart pushes its own e-wallet to over 500 retail stores
They're just catering to their clientele, who see Apple as elitist. -
Kuo: Demand for new MacBook Pro models tepid due to high prices, disappointing specs
jbdragon said:You know, throwing PRO in the name doesn't make it so!!!
Nor does buying something with "Pro" in its name make you a legit pro. It has mostly to do with your ability to deliver as an individual, of which your hardware figures in less than many people seem to think.
Real pros, in my experience, find a way to get the job done, with no whining (such as we've seen in abundance since the new laptop debuts).
