Scam ChatGPT apps are flooding the Mac App Store
Yet we are always hearing about legitimate developers who try over and over to get their app approved, rejected for seemingly nitpicking features or functions. There was an article not long ago about a reputable developer who finally gave up getting their product approved for the App Store because of the constant rejections. But we have scammers who are apparently gifted in getting their crap approved.
What does that say about Apple’s ‘review’ process? It says it’s bullshit from top to bottom. -
Anonymous developers claim fraud, scams & clones breeze by App Store review
"These various accounts are anonymous and can't be verified as accurate...”
Of course not, and that’s why they are being published. Stir shit up, add to the frenzy of the evil Apple narrative of those who voluntarily chose to buy products from Apple, knowing full well what being in the walled garden meant. But hey, instead of moving to another platform that supplies what they want, no, let’s force Apple to do what we want. Make Apple’s ecosystem go away and make it just like the other platform we could support if we wanted to -

Samsung says US Galaxy S7 phones safe despite scattered incidents
To be fair there are also “scattered incidents” of iPhones catching fire too. Lithium is a very reactive element being #3 on the Periodic Table and all. While it’s fun to mock Samsung they will be back with a vengeance. Consumers have very short memories and when the Note 8 comes out they will scoop it up. I had a furnace technician out to the house a few days ago. In the course of conversation he said had a Note 7 and had exchanged it for a Galaxy S7 after the recall. He was miffed he had to pay sales tax and other fees for the exchange yet he plans to get a Note 8 as soon as it comes out. -

Apple suggests that it has permanently exited the stand-alone monitor business
Jeffree said:I've been an Apple guy since 1984 when i bought the original 128k mac. But I recently im beginning to feel the love wearing off as I see less exciting innovation at a snails pace. Not offering a standalone display and leaving a giant hole in the ecosystem that only a 3rd party can fill does not seem like Apple at all, even if its not a profitable venture. The aesthetic and visual quality is a critical part of the ecosystem and LG will not get it right. I hope this rumor is wrong. -
What to expect from today's Apple event: 'iPhone 7,' Apple Watch with GPS, more
slprescott said:Two iPhone questions:
1. Will optical zoom mean the lens moves, as with an SLR camera?
2. How will Apple provide water-resistance of the Lightning port (that is not possible with the headphone port)?
Looking forward to Wednesday! -

Oh, and I don't have to pay bandwith charges to listen to music I like.
While I accept that for some people services like Apple Music and Spotify work, they don't for many of us, especially old dinosaurs like me.
