Life in that video would drive me absolutely crazy.

It seems to me that Apple's commitment to gaming extends only as far as their own app store. If you ain't buying from one of Apple's apps stores, they really don't care much about gaming. They've demonstrated this time and time again.

Until Apple figures out how to add pulse oximetry back in, whether that's resolving their dispute with Massimo or coming up with something new, I won't be getting a new Apple Watch. With sleep apnea, that functionality has proven incredibly useful …

Hey Sweeney, you and others wanted alternate stores. Now that you got 'em, you still want to use Apple's? Why is that, do you suppose?

In a slightly related note, if you don't know why the Michelin Tire company's approval is one of the most sought after ratings in the restaurant industry, it's an interesting story.

I fail to see why Apple is obligated to host this app just because of this ruling.

So Rogan has claimed that he's scrapped an entire episode because he couldn't get the person he wanted, and had a specific person in mind for a specific cameo, and rejected Cook for that specific cameo. Seems at least consistent to me. Perhaps he h…

I'm 65 years old, and I've been paying attention to politics for about 50 of that. There has never been a time in my life when a significant number of federal politicians, many times including the president, were NOT corrupt in some way. So, the an…
