Apple won’t pull out of EU countries. They’ll fight this obviously discriminatory law that appears to be worded specifically to target certain companies, not certain behaviors.

My takeaway? Bunch of ducking idiots I blocked are really pissed and hope Apple somehow loses, while trying to justify the EU position with the flimsiest of arguments. Soap-on-a-rope is going be be massively disappointed when Apple prevails. Just …

It also said that the report was based on "unsubstantiated allegations and hypothetical concerns" raised by "self-serving complaints" from a number of rivals, such as Facebook, Spotify, Match, Epic Games, and Microsoft. Truer words were never spoke…

People were upset with the M1 and tried to downplay its significance by saying it was good for laptops but not scalable to desktops. They were even more upset when the M1 Max came out and substantially increased performance for the MBP, but still c…

This Bruce Schneider fellow is an idiot and it’s hard to believe he’s a security expert. Maybe he’s like those doctors who used to say smoking was good for you. Say whatever aligns with those paying you.

Want to know just how bad the new Exynos and Snapdragon are? They're on the latest 4nm node. They’re using the latest & greatest ARM cores (X2, A710, A510). The stars have aligned letting them have all the best possible technology available tog…

Two words to destroy this gatekeeper bullshit: PWA Porn You can access iOS and Android devices via the web and completely cut out Apple/Google. Either through PWAs or even just websites. You don’t need to be in The App Store or Google Play for the…

These idiots keep talking about harm to consumers. Where’s the harm? On The App Store there are countless Apps in thousands of categories that can do almost anything with most of them either free or priced from $0.99-4.99. Huge selection to choose…

Not buying this. it’ll be major update every 2 years (M1 to M2…) with the Pro/Max versions coming every other year. So new processor every year, new architecture every 2 years. 18 months is odd as it puts architecture changes out of step with iPho…

They are a joke. I stopped commenting on their Twitter posts (which are just the same drivel repeated over & over). I think there have only ever been 4-5 people whoever bothered to comment (including me). I’m sure they think I’m a stalker for be…
