The judge did not find that Apple was right, she just found that Epic could not definitively prove Apple was wrong. She essentially said "keep things the way they are until the court can hear this at a trial." She did the same thing for Epic; Appl…

This was the right decision even though I hope Epic wins. It is not a clear cut case either way. In the absence of clear authority what Apple is doing is illegal, Epic should be required to continue on with the status quo until the courts and/or r…

Is it too much to ask that we be given more control over our home screens? Notifications and the widget screen are nice, but I would like to have the ability to pin an active display of just a few apps to the home screen. Something like the weathe…

Mississippi's AG has had it out for Google for years. I'm not saying Google doesn't need reining in some, but AG Hood does seem like he has an axe to grind. https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20170118/17262236516/google-hating-mississippi-attorney-…

"Being able to always get the latest issue is a big point in favor of Apple News+ because if you're interested in even one title, you're getting it faster than through the mail. If you're regularly interested in more than one, the $9.99 US or $12.99…

A 5% revenue drop and 15% decrease in iPhone unit sales isn't really "back to normal" when Apple had uninterrupted revenue growth for years. If anything it indicates Apple has settled into a "new normal" of stagnant hardware sales with services bei…

They should probably just cancel it. I don't see foldable display technology being ready for mainstream devices anywhere in the near future. Bendable displays may work, but having a 180 degree fold with millimeter level radius is a recipe for disa…

Mel Brooks called this one 40 years ago.

Interesting. This is the guy who wants Fortnight to be banned. "The game shouldn’t be allowed. It’s created to addict, an addiction to keep you in front of a computer for as long as possible. It’s so irresponsible.” The Duke also emphasized the d…

Sports is a unifier in the sense that it can give people something to chit-chat about and fill in dead space. Kind of like talking about the weather, or what happened on Game of Thrones, or any other topic of general interest. On the other hand, s…

Translation We've already trampled on the privacy expectations of our users and gained an almost insurmountable advantage in social media. Now for political expediency we will agree to across-the-board standards, but we certainly won't give up our…

I do subscribe to both the NYT and WP. One thing I have noticed is they very frequently intersperse their opinion pieces among their journalism pieces. Their legitimate news tends to be well researched and well presented. Their opinion pieces are…

If the rumored terms are correct and the newspapers are going to make full .pdf copies of the papers available through Apple News Service then I'll be one happy camper. My teaser rate of $20 a month for the WSJ runs out this month and would jump to…

If Apple does a spec bump on the basic iPad and goes to an A11 processor then I think it will be a legitimate choice between it and the new Air. Assuming Apple keeps the same $329 base price, the Air would cost $170 more for an extra 32GB storage, …

My question is will Apple update the basic iPad this year? A bump from the A10 to the A11 would be significant and would put it within 15% - 20% of the A12 on many applications. Yes, there are scenarios, particularly graphic intensive apps, where …

I wonder how this affects apps that directly access Dropbox. I've got three computers linked to my account that stay synced, but I also use Dropbox within specific apps on my iPhone and iPad (like Readdle Documents and 1Password). Will those count…
