MisterKit said: I went with an M1 Air on sale for $799. More than enough for my needs and simply a stupid deal! The M1 Air is a fantastic machine and I don't think it can be beat for the price - it's the best bang for the buck anywhere! I…

Battery life and fans matter - A friend has the 13" MBP and to be honest it is a really good deal for the price if one can live with the touch bar. It has the best battery life of any mac, lasting forever, and it has a fan, making it more suitable…

Government censorship apparatus apparently scraping Twitter day and night to analyze trends, and combat them with their bot armies. Any truth the government doesn't like appears, they take counter measures that's how they got 22M Tweets banned for…

These regulations and their tyrannical enforcement look like they are for you, the EU citizen. But actually, they're against you - they're just the government adding more tools to its tool belt to issue fines and bring corporations in line. It's …

Just use Telegram - has had this since forever. Also you can use it on multiple phones and computers without it throwing a fit. Also it doesn't lose all your chats any time you upgrade your phone to a new one, lose your phone, etc. It's just…

I know several people that have switched to Telegram because of this. Telegram: Have as many devices as you want. No "primary" device. Not married to your phone number. Old messages don't get deleted when losing your phone. Secret chats suppor…

Americans have no idea how big a deal this is. We were waiting for an Apple store in Thailand for a decade, and it finally happened - there's 2 now in Bangkok. The Apple store provides basically what can be considered top end customer service in…

Of all the different strategies Apple has to increase sales and revenue, this is the best. Take a country where Apple is under-represented, and go all in on it. This india push will make Apple king of the world, and once they're done there, they c…

jimh2 said: @thrang Excellent points about the rest of us being compromised by the schmuck who lets a side loaded App run sweep up their contacts. I can hardly wait for the unsolicited texts, emails and maybe even snail mail. Nothing like bei…

If Apple is smart they'll stop the whining and hand-wringing and go all in on it. There is literally a huge amount of apps that are waiting to be deployed on iOS but can't be deployed because of the little Apple prison which decided you can't watc…

Interesting. I do want to know what is out there in terms of PCs. Intel has been working hard to catch up to Apple Silicon and that's impressive. Almost as if it gave Intel a reason to pull out all the stops. Surprised they're still so far behind in…

"Nothing suggests that X Corp. will actually lead to the X app" Nothing. Except Elon Musk publicly stating that Twitter will become X, the everything app. Over and over again.

MBP would be much better off without the XDR mini LED display consuming all the battery. The display on my MBP gets hot and if I turn it on max brightness, it gets very hot and eats all my battery in a few hours. Imagine this computer with an OL…

The US government wants to ban it, that means it is a threat to the US government - not people at large. Facebook, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and so on collect the same or even more data on users the difference is, these corporations are only infi…

Devices will be made unusable - however, I am pretty sure selling 'em for parts will restore half the sale value easily. Only security sensitive parts can't be used, the rest can. Since there is such a huge market for iPhones, this won't be a probl…
