  • Apple looks to debut Siri SDK at WWDC, developing Amazon Echo competitor

    Before a select few commenters call foul if the device is not a souped-up Apple TV, ponder the obvious: what price point would this mythical Apple TV hit when you need to include a loud speaker, multiple microphones, maybe a glowing light, and other relevant tech? Surely it could not be kept at $149. Wouldn't the additional tech price the Apple TV out of the market? I believe so.

  • Some Mac Pro support pages archived by Apple, will no longer be updated

    1) the lack of USB on the front means you are constantly spinning your machine around, or leaving it pointed cables-forward, which kind of defeats the entire purpose of making the front look clean.
    ...
    6) in spite of there being ample internal room for it, there is no conventional slot for a drive. Such a slot would make a fusion drive possible, which is not on this machine.
    What, reeeeally...
    I'm only jumping into 2 of the points you made.
    1) I cannot even make sense of your 1st point. You'd have wished for the MacPro to include ports on the frontside. So to remedy the situation you rotate the machine 180 degrees, you're left with ports now facing forward towards the user, like you wished for, but you don't like how that looks? What the heck are you asking for then?
    6) your last point. It's soon to be 2017 and you still are in the camp hoping the HD doesn't go extinct, and even more so, you want Apple to support HD? Are you kidding me?! The MacPro is a forward-thinking design. Geez...
    Some of your other points suck too.

    Your comment proves that even Apple fans lack imagination. This is similar non-sense I heard about the disc drive removal.
    Please post the link to the Apple first-party Lightning headphones so I can purchase a set. Thanks!
    Stupid!

  • Early demo of Siri third-party app integration finds feature useful, vital to system's evolution

    Security Concern
    Siri can be provoked from lock screen. So will the third party Siri API allow verbal commands to be executed without first unlocking the device?

    Problematic Example
    Criminal picks up an unattended iPhone and prompts Siri to send X amount of money from Square Cash to X account.

    I imagine authentication is required but, as of now, I have no confirmation of the matter.

    Your thoughts?
