  • AirPods versus AirPods Pro -- Apple's wireless earbuds compared

    jccjcc
    One huge problem with in ear designs is that the seal causes mechanical transference of sound. Walking barefoot, your heal strikes, for example, can be heard. Or even heavy breathing. I hope Apple was able to solve this problem. From their technical specs it looks like they did. I’ll have to try it out to see how well.

  • Apple will try to talk its way out of a $40 billion fine on Tuesday

    40 BILLION? That's fucking insane. How much money does Apple Pay even make Apple? I think it's almost negligent. It's more of a value added feature for their ecosystem. 

    Pure insanity. Meanwhile companies that engage in actual egregious shit get no punishments, or pathetic slaps on the wrist. 
    In return for Apple paying $40 billion, we should tell Europe to pay us $4 trillion for NATO or else we let Putin roll his tanks into Paris.

  • Apple quietly pulls 12-inch MacBook from sale

    Once again Cook shows that he doesn't know anything about product. Steve would have had this portable lineup:

    MacBook 12"
    MacBook Pro 13" Touch bar
    MacBook 14"
    MacBook Pro 15" Touch bar

    It means there's a flavor for everyone from 12" all the way up to 15". NO 16"!!!

    I fail to understand the hate people have towards the iMac's "chin".  It really comes across as petty and that chin I think is what differentiates the iMac instead of making it look like some large, generic monitor.  Get over it people. 

    I actually glad there's some kind of chin there, especially with the new color options, it allows some of that color to come to the front of the unit as well.  Good job Apple.

    I do with the specs for the iMac were more beefy.  I used an M1-based MacBook and while I was absolutely floored by the performance, I expected Apple would give the desktop Macs with ASi chips made for desktop-class machines.  I just hope that whatever Apple has in store for the larger 27"+ iMac, it better include more RAM, and much higher spec ASi chips.
    A chin serves no purpose. It should be removed.

    Bring 2 children with you? I don’t get it but thank Apple! You guys saved 6 more lives! And the DOJ wants to change that. Clueless DoJ. 
    It's a family, and they hike. Including the kids. It's great exercise until you don't reckon on higher-altitude weather/condition changes.
    It’s basically still winter like weather out there and these bozos thought it was a great idea to go hiking high up on the mountains? Darwin Award. The rescuers should make this family pay the cost for their stupidity.

    Many of the Apple shows suck. That’s a problem.

  • How Apple Silicon Macs can supercharge computing in the 2020s

    jccjcc
    This article paints a too rosy picture of the transition. The fact of the matter is that moving away from x86 will end Mac’s “best of both worlds” status. That means no more running Windows software.

  • When to expect new AirPods and what the rumors are saying

    jccjcc
    That's exactly what would be a good use of the display on the case. You'll be able to use it like an Apple watch to control the music player so you won't have to pull out your phone.

  • After 14 years, Apple has finally retired the famous MacBook Air wedge shape

    jccjcc
    That image you show in the article is a MacBook Pro and NOT MacBook Air!!! A MacBook Air is thinner and has the headphone jack on the other side.

  • Apple remembers Queen Elizabeth II with homepage takeover

    Why?! Her forefathers raped and pillaged countless people all over the world. Did no one take any history lessons? Did Tim Cook not study history??
