  • What to expect from Apple's 'let us loop you in' event today

    I also hope that there's no musical guest at the end. Screw the music. I'm interested in Apple and their products. If people want to watch and hear music, then go to damn youtube and watch a video. 

    I know! Don't you hate it when Apple forces you at gunpoint to keep staring at your screen??1?

    I hate that so much!

  • Only months after launch, 'Disney Infinity' ditches support for Apple TV

    Personally I'm getting sick of the half-assed effort by Apple.

    Who is to blame?  Why did the AppleTV4 not come out with full Siri support or remote App?  Where is the liveTV package?  Even friken Dish was able to negotiate a liveTV package, so has Sony, so has Google.  Yet Apple can't?  fuking frustrating.

    Apple makes a big deal about gaming on AppleTV yet where are the big games? Total joke.  And requring all games to be playing on the Siri remote is ridiculous and dumb. They should have included a game controller. Makes me sick.

    Then no 4k when 4k is a huge feature on the iPhone/iPad. I mean WTF are these guys thinking. so sick of this shit.

    Personally I sick of this slow steady progress.  Sick of it. The competition does not do this. Why the hell does Apple have to withhold features ON PURPOSE?  So sick of this crap. Why can't Apple just give us the goods.  They are always withholding features for no other reason so we need to upgrade to AppleTV5 in year. Sick of this shit.

    I'm willing to pay top $$$ to get the best. Stop dicking around Apple.

    IMO the AppleTV4 should have included AT LAUNCH:

    1. full Siri support
    2. full universal search support
    3. Remote App/Bluetooth keyboard support
    4. Game controller included
    5. 4k support and lossless audio
    6. Live TV package availability
    7. HomeKit features - why the fuc has Apple allowed Amazon to steal mindspace with Echo? Friken AppleTV would be the perfect Homekit device. 

    Sick of Apple half-assing 

    Same thing with iPad the last couple years (until they brought out the Pro)
    Also why the hell does the 9.7 Pro only have 2GB ram? WTF.

    Every since Jobs died (oh no) wtf has Apple done?  I mean seriously wtf have they done?


    What have they done? You mean besides make billions of dollars every quarter? Maybe they should have just closed down instead.
    And mcdonalds makes billions a year as well. what's your point, that profit equals quality?

  • Apple plans to 'loop you in' at March 21 event with expected new 4" iPhone, 9.7" iPad

    Apple should consider leaving the USA.

    About 15% of Apple's profits comes for the USA.  About $7.5 billion a year.

    Apple makes about $42.5 billion in profits outside the USA.
    If Apple brings that money back to the USA they would have to pay 40% tax.
    The foreign tax rate is about 15%.

    So if Apple went out of the USA they would save over $10 billion on taxes a year (pay 15% tax rate in foreign countries instead of 40% USA/Cali tax rate)




    They should move their operations to Africa and just hire starving babies. Think how much they'd save!

  • Inside tvOS 10: New Apple TV Remote app for iPhone replaces your Siri Remote

    This just tells me the Siri Remote was a failure.

    so much potential....
    The fuck are you talking about? This brings parity to the physical remote.
    Who wants parity with a POS physical remote?

    Siri, play "I want you back" by the Hoodoo Gurus.

    Sorry, I can't help you with music.

    So, I get to scroll through 40k songs to get to the one I want. With no fast, continuous scrolling like the old remote. Keep flicking thumb on the remote  over and over and over. Not even an alphabetic side bar so I can hop to a certain letter.

    It's fucking pathetic. It's so bad that when listening to music on ATV4 that I use my ATV3 remote, or just play music streamed from my iPhone.

    That high gloss black will look great in a protective case.
    Why? I've owned the 5s and 6 for the last 3 years and never used a case.

    Are you suggesting that a significant (if not majority) portion of iPhone users don't use a case?

    Most of these class actions are thrown out. So will this one. My magic eight-ball says so.
    Exactly. The only ones winning in these are lawyers who collect a $2k retainer from a couple hundred idiots who think they have a chance for a huge settlement.

    Lawyers and Ads are the bain of society.
    Spoken like someone who has no idea what the purpose of class action lawsuits are -- not to put money in the pockets of "a couple hundred idiots who think they have a chance for a huge settlement", but to punish the corporation financially.
