  • How to stop the constant update prompt in the iOS 12 beta

    dangermouse2dangermouse2
    What an idiotic way to bugger up everything else to avoid a much smaller problem than you'll wind up with. I wonder what it does to your backups. Good luck finding your holiday phots in 3 years time when you've forgotten you did this.

    If you can't handle this most innocuous of beta issues then why are you running it?

  • Spotify says Apple's App Store changes omit 'price flexibility,' customer data

    dangermouse2dangermouse2
    "Apple still insists on inserting itself between developers and their customers, which means developers will continue to lack visibility into why customers churn"

    Your attitude expressed in the question contains your answer, dumbass.

  • Tim Cook debunks rumors of slow iPhone X sales

    "CEO Tim Cook put the rumors of a "dead" release to rest in one fell swoop".
    Again.

    LOL.  I can't wait to hear Tim Cook quote your words on his next TV interview about how Apple is defending privacy as a right...

    Interviewer: "Mr. Cook, you have long defended Privacy as a right and outlined in detail the steps Apple has taken to protect that right.  How do you harmonize your current plan to hash-scan for CSAM images on-device prior to their being uploaded to iCloud?"

    Tim Cook: "Apple's software. Apple's services. No privacy broken!"

    LOL.
    Now your phrase
    “hash-scan for CSAM images on-device prior to their being uploaded to iCloud”
    makes me think of how your luggage is x-rayed before being put on a plane.

  • Apple Music Classical's best feature is lost on Apple's headphones

    Most Audiophiles who care about these things will not be listening through your common run of the mill, Airpods or Sonys or Bose headphones.

    They’re more likely to go with
    Focal Bathys: $799
    B&W PX8: $699
    Mark Levinson 5909: $999

    And the above three are just the wireless “but can also do wired”, options.
    When you start getting into the wired options, then all of the above prices look like bargain basement.
    So the 'Best Feature" is one where very few people can discern the difference and it doesn't work on headphones that aren't up to discerning the differences on anyway. I think AI need to think again on what the best feature might be. Like being able to find what you want, see the information clearly etc. Basically everything else.

  • Apple invents plug insertion guidance system for desktops with hard to see ports

    Comments here remind me of the story about NASA spending millions to make a pen work in space, whereas the Russians used a pencil. It's intended to mock NASA's high tech approach. But who prefers utilitarian Russian design of cars to the West's? Which approach gave us sleek computers in our pockets? I love the film Brazil, but I really don't want to live there.
