I’m terrified by the number of apps requesting credit card details & having no Apple Pay option. It should be mandatory, as should an App Store payment option for all services (i.e. Netflix) not having this is a serious security issue.

This must really irk the choice-monkeys & as people elect quality over the superficial inclusion of choice-based marketing. It’s almost as if people are waking up. Watch how various governments push to break up Apple’s ‘oppressive’ integrated mo…

Has all the functionality been transitioned to other services for customers outside the US?

Locking the industry in to a 9-year old technology whilst killing innovation & tech product diversity.

eGPUs are not the solution. Benchmarks aside, they never delivered in terms of application performance. Apple has a long road ahead convincing developers to fully re-architect their products so they could release their own discrete GPU options which…

Apple is far from established and is coming up light on its promises. It has a significant problem & it isn’t the ISA. Until product managers allow significant forks for macOS-specific frameworks (Accelerate & Metal/TBDR) and commit to UMA a…

InspiredCode said: I’m still curious about the supply chain rumor that Apple had a discrete GPU in the works code named Lifuka in addition to what we now know as the M1 (Tonga), M1 Pro (Jade C-Chop), and M1 Max/Ultra (Jade C-Die) cores. The o…

I hope this is wrong as it means post-Jobs Apple has lost all sense of innovation. Diving straight back to the mid-80s GUI is not the way to go with this. Apple has some serious issues with cross-device cohesion. Hypothetically, Xcode should allow …

They seem to be taking the de facto stance that choice is automatically beneficial with actually qualifying the benefit. This is a problem the world over, people crave choice but when you challenge why, the conversation turns irrational pretty quick…

This makes no sense. Why would M-series slide from parity to a year (or 6-months) behind A-series architecture? If anything, M should lead A. October release on A16 equivalent.
