And thus for the first time in 20 years, Apple no longer sells any Mac that I would want to buy. The end of an era.

My 2012 15 incher is still my go to machine. To me still the pinnacle of Mac laptops. Dreading the day when she dies. At that point, hoping the 2015 one is still available. You have to assume Apple will be keeping statistics about how many 2015ers …

I have loads of 32 bit apps apparently. Things that probably won't be updated, and for which there will probably never be alternatives for. So if this is right, I'll be sticking with High Sierra for the foreseeable. Just as I'm sticking with iOS 10 …

Can we conclude from this then that he knows Android based smartphones to be relatively trivial to crack open without the need for Google to be involved? Or has Google provided them with cracking tools already? If you're an Android user, do you find…

What's the number 1 'feature' asked for? More battery life. What does Apple give us? A smaller battery. Isn't that just so typically Apple? Find out what we want, give us the opposite.

After one too many false positives, I turned that off ages ago. And an always listening option will only make it worse. With Syria being in the news a lot at the moment, Siri probably wouldn't ever shut up! It's a useful feature in theory, but it ju…

Interesting to note it's actually easier to replace the battery and screen than it is on the best of the Android Wear watches, the Moto 360. That gets only 3/10 for repairability compared to the Apple Watch's 5/10. Who could have predicted that? h…

Mine's got this issue. Glad they've acknowledged this is an inherent problem before I paid for it to be fixed myself. Downside though, guess I'm going to have to wipe out my jailbreak, thereby losing my tethering capability. Bummer.

Apparently the app only works on iOS7. Hopefully AI will keep us updated on the freebies so those of us stuck on iOS6 knows what's up for grabs.

That's one less reason to jailbreak I guess. No need for SB Settings anymore.

Does the recent jailbreak work with this version?

In the market for a new 15" MacBook Pro. Now wondering if I should hold off and see if they offer this Fusion drive as an option. 200 quid a bit of a hard-to-swallow premium, but might be worth it.
