Nonsensical expense solving "first world problems" - like those hikers that ignore all warnings and get lost in the wilderness every year. Secret services rejoice at the prospect of tracking people outside cell tower coverage. "Service paid for by …

Couldn't have anything to do with rampand censorship and "factcheckers" - who, by Facebook's own admission in court, are merely sources of "opinions". I am very, very happy that telling people what to think is not profitable. Leads to losses. …

I just closed 2 PayPal accounts. Bye bye.

Tech stocks crashed after the made his announcement which would have made it a terrible deal with the promised fixed price. Seems they recovered now since they're picking it up again. In the meantime Twitter lied about how many bots they had. Unsu…

WiFi internet connectivity and operating system is an absolute security nightmare. Any targeted hacking attempt - this makes a hacker smile and their job easy. Exfiltrating data right over the monitor...

Amazing how Apple is now using its monopoly just like Microsoft used to - doing things that are good for corporate and carriers and bad for customers. Maybe they have a secret plan on how to usurp the carriers with this - who knows. But on paper…

Worthy upgrade removal of SIM tray is concerning, that's a bit like the removal of the audio jack. We still miss the audio jack, and now we're using these silly lightning port dongles... wondering how this has been "progress" as we dongle about o…

Brazil put a price on wokeness, good. Apple is so concerned about the environment they don't include a charger or earphones in their $1,000+ devices. At the same time, they make products that can't be repaired and need to be replaced wholesale. Ex…

I guess the 15" Air always fell through the cracks so far - most people will be ok with 13" But for me, when I got the 18" Pro M1, I really wanted a 15" MBA. I need a large screen, I don't need any of the bells and whistles on the 16" - yes they…
