So, some guy gets his few minutes of fame and brief access to a bully pulpit to thank his supporters and possibly call the world to action for a noble cause, and he uses this opportunity to whine about his personality issues with a keyboard. 

Wow. 

downvote

😂 so intel will maybe have one new cpu or even just a speed bump by the end of the transition and the mac pro cpu will have had no improvements.

meanwhile apple shows final cut, creative cloud and office on the nearly 2yr old A12z running in a $500 mac mini with no discrete gpu - smoother and with real time video effects at 4k.

bahahahahaha, i have been waiting for this moment for about 8yrs now, seeing each intentional step by Apple.

i would think a viable alternative would be to buy an android phone.

seems a lot simpler

there are so many reasons Apple could choose to terminate your ID. Things you do, things others do to you.

people talking about download your things, download all the apps for my phone?

and here is the clincher - my laptop and phone and tablet require my Apple ID to function, next minute you can’t even get security updates, you can’t even wipe them because that requires your Apple ID.

Sorry Apple, please don’t send your goons round to smash into my home and take everything that i have paid for outright, i own that book, i paid for those movies, no i use those tools for work, what you are taking the very phone out of my hand so i can’t call my lawyer

there are no analogies required. it is criminal

by the way, has anyone read the terms and conditions of iTunes and what happens to all your purchased music if you subscribe to Apple Music? i bet you haven’t. so sad too bad.

Way overpriced considering they only last about 2 years or so before the batteries fail to recharge and become disposable trash....and the mediocre sound quality does not justify the price.  But they are really working that 'Pro' word into their advertising...diminishing it with every new product release.

Apple won’t replace the batteries? I never thought about that with my Beats X... have i really purchased land fill?

edit: below info

sounded like fud and it is fud

” If your product is out of warranty or your battery wears down over time, you can get battery service through Apple or an authorized service provider. The fee includes replacement and recycling.”

and for reasons only known to the marketing team - Series 3 Watches just get the artist watchface....

those coloured stripes and typography must be so much more complex to run - i guess my watch would fail if it tried

that is nice, however is there a command that turns on the damn keyboard backlight prior to login.

pre-catalina you could see the keys to type in a password, now... darkness

so instead of 1 xBox xCloud app - there would be 100s of them in all manner of game categories, with comments about how well the controls translate for that specific game and coming up in charts and no doubt doing well against other games.

apple says to microsoft - hey don’t have one bit of floorspace, have hundreds. hey don’t have one brand in the store, have heaps of leading brands.

apple says, hey don’t just limit your service and income to existing xBox users - target people on iOS who aren’t and let’s make it easy for them by offering sign in with apple.

microsoft is complaining?

the comments were some seriously amusing reading.
