Side-loading iOS ain't gonna happen and I wouldn't want it to: It's just one more vector for malware.

I got that email from AT&T for the one iPhone on my account that doesn't support LTE at all. It belongs to my elderly mother-in-law and we're dreading having to teach her how to use a modern iPhone (she's technology-challenged). I'm almost asham…

GG1 said: Interesting news. That means they're turning off the circuit-switched network (only used for voice calls in 2G and 3G) and moving to a 100% packet-switched network (everything in data packets). So your phone must support VoLTE (…

I noticed a couple more changes: Wifi signal strength is now shown next to cellular signal strength in CarPlay, at the expense of cellular network type (e.g. LTE). As I didn't have a Wifi signal, the icon just showed the arcs with an exclamation ma…

So far, I've been less than impressed with all the miniaturized USB connections with the possible exception of Mini USB. Micro USB and USB-C have been unreliable for me, with USB-C having the added downside of the connectors loosening up over a shor…

I've never checked to see if there's a flying toaster screen saver on the Apple TV. If not, there needs to be for all us nostalgia buffs.

Breaking encryption is against the law as a result of the DMCA, so I see Apple as having legal justification for this action if encryption is being broken to accomplish the hacks, which it likely is.

Does the Jabra give you that "head exploding" feeling when you put them in? One of the things that the AirPod Pods were supposed to do is alleviate that. It drives me nuts with pair of passive-noise-reducing wireless earbuds I'm using now.

China and the western Pacific rim are by far the biggest polluters in the world and I don't expect China to concede much in the accords. Putting heavy restrictions on the US economy without the biggest polluters doing their fair share of CO2 reducti…

I have a 2016 15" MBP and never really liked the keyboard. I just got a 2019 16" MBP and the keyboard is *so* much better. I'm trading in my old MBP.

I guess that leaves me out. I've never had a Twitter account, nor have I wanted one.

It would be nice to know the dB rating on the noise isolation and cancellation.

LG added Airplay2, but as far as I know, the Apple TV app is still not available for LG TVs.

They can't go to the Eastern District of Texas: Apple doesn't have any facilities in that district anymore, much to my disgust. I have to travel twice as far to an Apple Store now than I used to thanks to the damned patent trolls.
