  • Twelve years later, Apple is still trying to erase mac.com email addresses

    skip_deedyskip_deedy
    I still actively use my .mac address. In fact, I was so early doors with iTools that my email is simply my first name, just four letters, before @mac.com. ;

    I still also log in to my iCloud account with my .mac. 

    I have noticed though, as the article suggests, that I periodically need to revert some settings to my .mac address from iCloud after the odd iOS updates. I definitely get the feeling I’m being pushed.

    But I’ll never give it up willingly!

  • Review: 'Mario Kart Tour' on the iPhone and iPad falls short on nearly every front

    Couldn’t agree more with this review. As a Nintendo fan, I’m so disappointed by the approach they have taken with such a hallowed title. Not just the horrible control mechanics but the monetisation strategy. Personally, I was incredible confused by the menu screens. The constant push to in app purchases makes for fit inducing busy UI that left me entirely confused as to what I was supposed to be doing. And the €5 a month subscription offer - are you kidding me Nintendo? €5 for what exactly? Nintendo should be embarrassed by the quality of this game and the monetisation strategy. 

    I tried Apple Arcade and immediately installed Sonic Racers. Infinitely more fun and kart control so much better.

  • EU will order Ireland to collect over $1B in back taxes from Apple - report

    skip_deedyskip_deedy
    A lot of anti-EU nonsense from a lot of people here who clearly don't have a clue what the EU is. Ireland benefits greatly from membership. It's not a perfect union but it's been, on the whole, a hugely positive influence across Europe. Any talk of it crumbling shows total ignorance. The EU has laws designed to ensure member nations do not unfairly single out a particular company for special tax incentives. The EU has no law against tax incentives – just anti-competitive arrangements. They have deemed Apple's arrangement in Ireland anti-competition.
