y2an said: Remind me, where’s the power button on an Apple TV? On the remote. Once upon a time, there was a power button on the USB keyboard. When they got rid of that, it was a PIA for anyone whose Power mac was in an enclosed space. We u…

Alex_V said: I don’t believe that this was a decision to prioritise form over function. Placing the power button, either on the back, or on the front, would look perfectly fine, in keeping with the Apple minimalist aesthetic. It appears that …

bloggerblog said: Can't it be powered on from the keyboard? The keyboard power button was a hack that did not conform to USB standards, so they took it away. I recall when that happened because we manufactured computer trolleys for a medic…

dewme said: I think a lot of automakers are struggling to provide differentiation in the vehicles they sell. So many new vehicles are virtually indistinguishable and only come in four colors. They want to use the dashboard to separate their v…

But at least on my Jaguar, access to the native apps is just a click away inside Carplay. I-Pace? I do like the balance. It does help that the car has normal controls and instrument display. I'll never consider a Tesla for that reason. The d…

danox said: I like that car but charging it or any EV inside of a garage attached to your house is a long term housing insurance problem. Cars that cost that much can't be parked outside for any length of time. Really, I guess no one told…

saf said: They need to roll this out to everyone as soon as possible. It's a safety issue, if you aren't connected to the cabin audio system, you're likely to miss safety announcements. It's not cool when you miss the instructions that tell…

Amazing to see all the fabricated assumptions defending Apple's decision to prevent third party repairs. Not qualified you say. How do you know if they are qualified? You assume this to defend Apple's position. Apple should not be held responsible i…

AppleZulu said: This is irresponsible reporting. The headline and lede make it seem like this was somehow a failure on the part of the iPad itself. It was not. Read on, and you'll understand that the issue was that, once dropped, the iPad be…

The article mentions that in a power failure, you can charge it at an EV charging station (and skip the lines at a gas station). Unless the power failure is local, EV charging stations also need a working grid to work, so charging at an EV station m…
