teejay2012 said: The EU does not generate enough profit for Apple to be happy about a $2B fine. That is going to hurt. Why for all this, when Apple was responding to DMA and making accommodations for their anti steering practices?... Because …

Looking forward to the lighter frame (titanium), a telephoto zoom camera, better modem (faster LTE), and Thunderbolt for (hopefully) faster Mac syncs. Going from 480 mb/sec to a nominal 40 gb/sec should make for much faster transfers - though changi…

TheObannonFile said: Lame. They already cost enough. Profit margins are very high. And cost to build goes down the entire life cycle of the device. I’m all about business and profit, but this seems unnecessary. iPhone Pro Maxes have held …

daveflash said: this to me points to only one thing: Apple finally taking the EU seriously for once and also taking their previous letter of complaint that "any artificial (software) limitations the common port" are "not in line with the regu…

I agree that USB-C with Thunderbolt would be good thing to have - but I don't agree with the EU on all issues. Specifically, I think the EC is getting too big for its britches, and mandating things like replaceable batteries and message protocols w…

Just remove the damned thing. There's enough cruft in the OS as it is.

Huh … installed Petey today and later got my first spontaneous Apple Watch reboot later this evening on my Ultra.

Not sure why the EU/EC has such a bug up their butts over this - Apple doesn't restrict messaging apps in iOS. I have Signal on my iPhone because it allows for multi-platform end-to-end encryption with certain features like message expiration, and …

Think of what will happen to the supply chain if China invades Taiwan (as they seem to be moving towards). This is no joke - we may be at war with China if Xi Jinping gets his way. He's been saber rattling since well before Russia's latest adventur…
