cpsro said: N.B. The advertised 26 GB/s speed is when the card is installed in a PCIe Gen. 4 computer. The 2019 Mac Pro is PCI Gen. 3, with an advertised speed up to 12 GB/s for the card. If only they had used ThreadRipper / Epyc instead o…

This is just sloppy and another example of how Apple has been slacking on supporting and enabling professional users. No, I don't use my scanner every day or even every week... but when I need it, I need it. With a decent, mid-priced scanner, I can …

foregoneconclusion said: That's what eventually led to the warrantless wiretapping provision being eliminated by Congress: public pressure. However, there were plenty of people that were ignorant of the Patriot Act and what it contained, …

Gurman believes rumors about a final Intel Mac Pro are true, with one more apparently planned for launch. Rumors from July point to a Xeon W-3300 family CPU being used in an update, in parallel to Apple Silicon. It makes sense to release a "…

Panamaniak said: AppleInsider said: In January, Pai said "one or more" U.S. carriers might be fined over illegal data practices after an investigation by the FCC's Enforcement Bureau found certain companies "apparently violated" federal l…

I'm happy that Apple is still addressing the pro market, but it's unfortunate they missed so badly using Intel Xeon CPUs instead of AMD Epyc CPUs for this generation. The additional cores and PCIe bandwidth would be massively useful, especially if t…

Andrew_OSU said: I grabbed all three cables and have no issues with them. They are certified through Apple so they are guaranteed at least some level of durability and performance. I'm not sure if that's really a good criteria for recomm…

Ah, the irony of making a video describing how to manage Google's problematic privacy options... and hosting it on YouTube.

Notsofast said: It's long past time for Apple to offer home security cameras for Doorbells, etc. I know Apple doesn't want to scare aware companies by introducing competing products, but home security is just too important to leave it in the…

Apple needs to step up their game with HomeKit in many areas. There are a lot of things I would like to do with it, but just can't because of various limitations. There are frequent issues with scheduled tasks not running for unknown reasons. I real…

I've thought for some time now that the day that Apple purchased Beats and seriously delved into the content industry will go down as the day Apple lost its soul. The iPhone Music app fine for using Apple Music streaming, but it seems to want to fig…

Can everyone quit slagging the guy for not having sufficient backup? Should he have had it? Definitely. But there's absolutely, positively zero excuse for vendors like Adobe (and Microsoft last month with the Windows 10 update) playing so absurdly f…

I've had some WiFi issues with IOS 12 on both an iPhone X and iPhone XS, using a somewhat old but otherwise healthy Cisco 2702E AP. LTE performance on Verizon's network has been solid so far, even though I'm in an area with poor reception. In areas …

Some actual usability info would be nice. I have several of the Belkin Boost-Up charging pads and while they work, they are are extremely sensitive to phone placement - to the point where cabled charging is often more convenient. It feels more like…

Terrible analogies here. Apple's software quality has been noticeably on the decline for many years now. They're well still ahead of their main competition (Google and Microsoft), but this may or may not last. It seems to have gotten worse around …

Ugh. Insurance addiction is insane. So, you're willing to bet $199 up-front in order to forgo the possibility of maybe having to pay $279 later - with the $29 service charge that's 82% of the full price. Unless you're 82% sure you're going to break…
