  • Child spends $16K on iPad game in-app purchases

    I will not side with Apple on this one. The store is curated, so everything on it carries their seal of approval. I don’t see how a game that allows charging so much in in-game purchases can not be considered for what it is: a complete scam. And Apple should set much stronger rules and caps on in-app spending for games. This is ridiculous.

  • Apple will crush the DoJ in court if Garland sticks with outdated arguments

    Joe Biden needs to go. I am sorry but I am not usually political but this guy is ridiculous 
    This started two years into the Trump administration.
    And it was dead when San Jose court decided for Apple but brought back when Biden appointed the socialist Kanter . Did you even read the article above?
    Considering that I wrote it, yes, I did. The DoJ didn't stop after the trial. It may have slowed, but didn't stop.

    Epic v. Apple was ruled on in September 2021. Kanter was appointed on November 2021.
    I read up on Kanter after seeing  your article here. This is 100 percent Kanter, the guy  is a communist socialist if you read what he has wrote in past.

    Anyways, you can defend Biden if you want to but I have a right to my position as well . Or do I?
    You are absolutely entitled to be uninformed and stupid. You can even air out your uninformed statements, because for the time being we’re still in a democracy. You better pray Biden gets reelected if you want that to continue.

  • iPhone 7 Plus Intel or Qualcomm modems at crux of small claims court victory over Apple

    Tonight, on Judge Judy... Seriously, never underestimate the power of small claims courts -- even TV ones. About 10 years ago, FedEx knowingly sold worthless additional insurance. A customer had a valuable package destroyed and tried to collect only to be given the runaround. Took FedEx to small claims court... and the case was picked up by Judge Judy. Somehow the FedEx legal team didn't think it would be a really smart idea to settle before their shenanigans were exposed on a hugely popular national TV show. FedEx ended up getting a classic dressing down by America's favorite TV judge, and the fallout cost them millions. All that because they wouldn't make things right.

  • Trump gives Apple a giant break with wide-ranging tariff exemptions

     Like I have repeatedly stated on this site and others, . Apple would not be harmed by these tariffs.  It’s amazing how people still do not understand how Trump operates and what his intentions are even after him being president for 4+ years.   Many view him as incompetent or corrupt and greedy but he is just following his America First policies and truly is trying to put America in a better position.  Those suffering from TDS will never see this. 
    Anyone witnessing his behavior and believing there is any sort of deep thinking behind it is completely batshit insane. Or brainwashed. You remind me of Leah Remini pre-awakening, saying to an interviewer “without scientology there can’t be any peace on this planet”.
    I hope you wake up like she did. But you’ve been brainwashed. The only other explanation is that you’re a complete moron.

  • Home automation firm Wink to enforce subscription program on July 27

    Wink was great in the beginning. They had an awesome iOS app, added support for new devices on a regular basis... Things have never been the same since the demise of Quirky. The app was never updated, popular new devices not supported, and the whole system got unbearably flaky. Just this past week my hub disconnected and required a reboot. TWICE.

    There was such an urgency in the way they initially demanded subscription money it’s clear they needed it to keep the lights on and the servers running. I am not expecting any of that money to go to new developments, instead it’s just going to be used to keep a moribund system on life support until it dies of irrelevance. It’s been impossible to buy a new Wink hub for the past three years, the user base is shrinking, not expanding. It’s dead.

    So I bit the bullet, bought a Raspberry Pi 4 and installed Homebridge on it. That thing is amazing and not that hard fo figure out! It has tons of plugins to support pretty much any device under the sun, you just need to add a ZWave USB stick and a Zigbee interface to support your legacy Wink devices, and they’ll magically show up as HomeKit devices in your Home app. Much better use of money than a Wink sub.

  • Trump's 104% tariff against imports from China goes live

    You voted for this buffoon, you own this. People losing their
    jobs, their house, their retirement money. Innocents being deported to foreign prisons and tortured. And worse coming. You own the ruin of this once great nation. I hope you one day realize the immense depth of your stupidity.

  • Apple stocks plummet, as Trump threatens 104% tariff on China

    At least it’s finally starting to look like some of his magamaggots are waking up. How some people still actually believe he has any clue what he’s doing or that he’s surrounding himself with smart people have not been paying attention. To think they had the gall to call Biden senile. Maddening.

  • US and China temporarily lower tariffs to start trade negotiations

    $1.5 trillion trade deficit? How did we get into this mess. That Buffon is doing something about my kids future, otherwise America will be gone. Debt up to our noses. $36 trillion and nobody is mentioning and not even Apple can survive.
    That buffoon is making sure your kids won’t have a future. You mention debt, you should look into each government’s contributions to it. Every single republican administration has increased the debt significantly (the trump one being the worst offender) while dems fix it. Look it up, genius.

  • It's still cheaper to import iPhones with 25% tariffs, than assemble in the US

    Trump is a moron. Clear as day, the emperor has no clothes. The incompetence, greed and corruption on display at every level of his administration is unprecedented. It’s time for all the press to stop acting as if this five alarm fire was business as usual.
