y2an said: “Ordered”? There is no such power. Try telling that to "Rule by Decree" King Donald. Oppose his wishes, and he'll threaten you or deport you or sue you. Or, in the case of the courts, simply ignore you.

Ive desperately wants to do yet another video VoiceOver where he discusses the device's "space age alu-min-imum frame"...

"That privacy-first approach has become a selling point...." More security-first than privacy-first, from my perspective. Every site I share a credit card number with multiplies the chances my card number and information will be stolen in a data bre…

I actually have the Adobe "Photography" Plan that just bumped up from $9.99/mo to $15.52/mo. ($19.95 listed on site). Or had, rather, since I just cancelled it. I no longer use it enough to justify the cost, and have been using Pixelmator Pro for t…

Minimalism has its place, but the problem has been that it almost always comes with a loss of functionality. And oddly enough, an increase in complexity. Having a single button on your phone is minimalist. Having that button perform multiple action…

People use phones to read, play games, watch videos, take photos and videos, and more. Until there's a replacement for the screen, the iPhone will still be around. And for those looking forward to implants, may I direct you to S07E01 of Black Mir…

Amazing how steadily TSMC advances these processes. It seemed to take Intel generations to go from one process to another.

Love the Apple TV but... ever since Movies and TV moved to the Apple TV app I've had consistent issues with my purchased Movie tiles updating. Just row after row of blank gray tiles that either don't update at all or, if they do, update one after an…

As has become increasingly evident, the world is growing less and less tolerant of bullies. The was an old internet adage that said that it had a tendency to reroute around damage. I suspect that the world is now trying to figure out how to reroute …

Funny how people keep focusing on the economic plays while ignoring other, far more dangerous options. Donald thinks he's playing 3D checkers. But what happens when someone else decides to simply knock over the entire board? China could well view…

One other headwind against Apple is that it's largely an American brand. And Trump has damaged those brands to much of the world. In Canada, for example, businesses are pulling US-made products off the shelves just as fast as they can. It’s not th…

godofbiscuitssf said: Uhh no. Rare to see such a well-considered and erudite argument. Why not? New facilities in India, IIRC, manufacture about 20% of all iPhones.

The company could rely on a combination of things like cost sharing with suppliers, eating into product margins, relying on inventory, and passing the cost to customers. They could also simply divert more of India's production to the US, and use Chi…
