A6X: How Apple's iPad silicon Disrupted mobile video gaming
I agree about the freemium crap, but they’re obviously successful. Apple is combating that with Apple Arcade, but I haven’t been impressed. I’m hoping AR glasses will be transformative. Maybe with AR + 5G there will be something interesting. In the meantime the processing power goes unused...in my case playing chess.Peza said:I have to say, although I think the iPhone and iPad are very powerful and capable gaming machines, they have no games. It’s all freemium crap. COD Mobile and Mario Kart are great and I enjoy them, but they are freemium titles designed specifically to make you spend spend spend.. now look at the Switch and the Switch Lite, fantastic machines and portable and complete with a big games library now, mostly premium games with no in app purchases.
Thats vastly more important then the power under the hood, and why Apple will never be able to seriously compete in the mobile games market.

Apple sources 20M face masks, designs and ships face shields for medical workers
Good job, and keep going.
My amateur projections saying the number of infected will quadruple over the next 2 week (in the USA). Worldwide I don’t have a clue... most of South America, Africa, and Asia (outside of China) is relatively untouched. If our medical system is already strained... there’s going to be bodies piling up in the streets elsewhere.
I really hope I’m wrong.

Jailbreak for all iOS 13.5 devices coming soon, hackers say
I’d much rather have the zero day patched.
Hopefully when this is released Apple is the first to download and reverse engineer it... and squash it.

Apple shuts down Epic Games developer account
I wonder what Epic is thinking...
I get they are frustrated with the 30% “Apple Tax” but their actions make no sense.

Apple Silicon Mac mini dev kit looks like a desktop iPad Pro
There’s not enough information to conclude that. We have tablet hardware running a desktop OS. This isn’t the hardware that will be shipping to customers.mretondo said:Apple made it perfectly clear that ARM is slower than Intel. In fact they screamed it out load if you were listening. There wasn’t a single side by side demo of FCP X running on two Macs doing a long task like rendering. Intel takes 2 minutes while ARM takes 1.5 minutes. That’s all it would’ve taken to show how fast ARM is. The reason, ARM is slower!
All this is, is hardware so the devs can kick the tires and fix their code.

Martin Scorsese in talks with Apple TV+ to produce & distribute $200M film
$200 million wasn’t enough to finish a movie that likely lacks expensive cgi?
Did they buy a casino or something to add realism?
Sounds like a money pit.
......
edit
Wait a minute, they haven’t even started filming yet. How could they have “blown the budget”?
“Rodrigo Prieto announced that the shooting schedule for Killers of the Flower Moon would begin in March 2020.”

Review: SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Luxe USB-C Flash Drive is a stylish way to offload iPad P...
It seems to be to slow to be practical.Might as well plug your iOS device in directly to wherever you need the data to be transferred to. Last time I checked iPhones and iPads are pretty portable themselves. The only reason I wouldn’t do that is if I didn’t trust the destination device (PC/Mac).

Some Facebook employees don't believe attacks on Apple are justified
Apple:
With Facebook, just like with the coronavirus there is now a cure. We thought we’d offer, but it’s up to you to take it...
It doesn’t even require two shots, just one click.
Facebook:
...incomprehensible misinformation for exploitation is our constitutional right! Protect profits!
If you can’t understand our FACTS they must be true... 90% of 30% of 30% of 10% of scientists agree!
Apple:
So, less than 1% agree...?
Facebook:
Hate, not love. Love, not hate!Apple to legal department:
Are you sure we can’t just recommend people deleting this trash?
