Apple's new diversity exec hails from Bank of America
AppleZulu said:Came here to see the knee-jerk semi-racist and pretty-much-racist responses to anything ever posted here related to this subject. I was unsurprised to find it stacking up as expected.
It's funny when people object to intentional efforts for diversity and inclusion as a pearl-clutching affront to "merit-based" hiring, as if merit based hiring has ever been a thing. When non-male, non-white people are excluded and steered away from a field like coding or engineering at every turn starting with early childhood, the resultant competition among the folks who make it to the point where they can even apply for the job cannot then be called winners in a merit-based system. If your competition has been repeatedly kneecapped before they ever make it to the starting line, getting to the finish line first does not make you a merit-based winner. If half your competition has never had a chance to get to the race, even as you "win," you should know that you've never actually been tested in a merit-based system.I was afraid I'd see nothing but racism in this thread. Thank you for being the voice of sanity. -
Apple reaches agreement with unionized Maryland Apple Store workers
red oak said:They will be last to receive any new benefits or pay enhancements Apple Retail unilaterally rolls out to all the stores
They will now need to transactionally ask and negotiate for every-single-thing
They think they “won”They did, in fact, win.And Apple would be breaking the law (and almost certainly violating their union contract) if they leave them out of any new benefits or raises.Hopefully this win will prompt other Apple stores to unionize. Unions are ALWAYS better for workers. -
Apple's batterygate settlement fund didn't have enough money to pay a $92.17 check
jayweiss said:Misleading Title.It was not Insufficient Funds, but someone didn’t deposit the check within the period stated on the check before it became void (usually within 90 days). When did the person get the check?Click bait…Somebody didn't read the article. The check was marked as good until April 18, she deposited it on April 1. And if it's the check in the picture, it's dated March 1, much less than 90 days.In any case, she deposited it in time, and it bounced. -
Apple ID rebrand to 'Apple Account' expected in iOS 18 & macOS 15
It won't help.Users have no idea what you're talking about when you say Apple ID, they don't know that it's an email address, they don't know that it's the same thing they use for iCloud, they're confused as to what iCloud is, and they definitely don't know how to remove devices they're selling/giving away from it.I don't know what the fix is, but a simple rename isn't going to help. -
Mac Studio storage upgraded by hardware hacker, but don't expect a retail kit soon
mikethemartian said:I know the Mac Mini has the SSD soldered on but I thought that the Studio had them in a socket where you were able to replace them if they fail by buying the replacements from Apple, but you were not able to upgrade them to larger sizes.As dosdude1 shows, that's misinformation that Apple did nothing to dispel.This guy is GOOD at what he does. He's the guy who enabled unsupported installs of Mac OS X 10.12 through 10.15, he's the guy who figured out how to bypass the failing GPU chips on 2011 MacBook Pros, he's done a lot of good for the Mac community.I'll go so far as to say Appleinsider is WRONG, and you absolutely SHOULD "go down this road" to perform what is actually a near-ZERO risk procedure on a Mac Studio. Dosdude1 is going to be selling pre-populated SSD modules in the future. It'll be almost as easy as changing a NVMe SSD. Expect a retail kit soon. -
Apple green lights Epic Games Store in rapid reversal
dix99 said:Apple needs to put a safety disclaimer, with regards to downloading from outside of the App Store. Now it’s at the owners risk, as these have not been certified with an Apple Gold Check mark, which means they’ve been tested at Apple.Apple needs to NOT imply that apps from outside the Apple app store are somehow any less safe than apps from inside it, because if they lie like that they're going to find themselves with even higher fines.And that's a good thing.Apple has been treating you so badly for so long that you've developed something akin to Stockholm Syndrome. -
