Well since I no longer buy American products, I wouldn't go for Google either.

It's going to be tough ... as a customer I will no longer buy American, if that can be avoided. I guess I'm not alone in that in the civilized world. As a stockholder I'm pissed, that Apple is eating the tariff taxes - Americans should pay more for …

Time to increase prices in the US. It's completely inacceptable that stock holders should swallow that tax.

I'm a T-Mobile (in Germany) subscriber ... but thankfully I don't live in this shit-hole country. So I don't have to cancel my mobile phone subscription. Because my houshold is a Musk-Free zone. Then again should Apple decide to enable the swastica…

So Apple sends some of it's experts in manufacturing (probably all Chinese nationals) on how to screw in a screw ... and then to do that for 12-16 hours 6-7 days per week for about $1000 per month. Sounds about right.

Breaking Bad was excellent ... Better call Saul had a few good episodes ... if that trend continues Plur1bus will be nothing but a giant wast of money.

BMW is currently busy with it's all new 'Neue Klasse' concept, whose first models are already driving around here (I live close to their internal test track and see those things regularly driving around). This not only includes an all new outside de…

These forced Advertisements by Apple for some Apple is just disgusting.

Then again it looks like lobbying works. They also wanted to add a 'product lifetime' of some sort. Some sort of 'this product will get full product updates for the next x years after purchase'. Admittedly Apple is quite good in that compared to the…

mknelson said: Apple's easy defence: the stock price history. It was on a pretty steady upward trend until the end of 2024. The big fall was after Trump announced his tariffs. Not exactly true ... look at 2020, where AAPL took a beat…

What a complete and utter nonsense. Stocks go up, stocks go down and that's not always related to a companies performance. AAPL almost always has a year end rally where stock price reaches new record only to lose significantly in Q2 (first quarter…

You forgot, that Apple 'only' released a developer build of VisionOS 26, so devs can make use of the new API's etc. It's not a release for an end customer, so no need to add more apps. This is going to be a valid point should things not change for…

Microsoft did that before the iPad came out with the tablet PCs. Turns out this was a complete failure (Windows 8 with this silly pseudo touch interface). By now they went the way of the Zune, the Dodo and the Netbook. So why on earth should Apple…

Kind of fits my personal experience with UK police. They are lazy. Once I literally had to become a nuisance to that police officer in order to get what I wanted (as in a simple contact information for a hit&run driver that smashed my car). A ph…

"Don't assume the App Store is watching out for you" I would never do that. The Apple AppStore is watching out for Apple and Apple alone. To make sure that it generates fees/profit/subscriptions, stays legal with local jurisdiction and most importan…

Greedy Tim looking back means, that he has no vision looking forward. Time to drop Tim Cook and look for someone who actually cares more about the Apple products instead of the bottom line.

What happens next!? Apple will charge for the developer API and tools (XCode) again and probably lot's of it in a monthly subscription model. Beginners can use Apple Playgrounds. Greedy Tim can't think in any other way.
