Apple has been having no luck arguing against the EU's Digital Markets Act, and it's paid the price in fines and forced changes to its App Store — so now it's looking for a European head of PR.What Apple says is that the job is about "helping us inf…

Separately, however, India's government did previously attack Apple over its similar warnings in October 2023. In that case, the warnings chiefly went to journalists and opposition politicians in the country.Apple has a habit of repeating its mistak…

Apple would be wise to insist its critical suppliers do their production in facilities in buildings hardened against earthquake damage.

Hopefully, this merger will allow Affinity to move into a area it has thus far neglected—book publishing. I've used InDesign for close to twenty years, but I can see that subscription model is too costly for independent authors and small publishers.…

After years of promising a lawsuit, the US Department of Justice has finally brought an antitrust suit against Apple. That hints at what's going on here. With the election coming up in November, Biden's DOJ is showboating. "See," it is saying, "we'r…

Do we get to choose the IQ of this AI, paying more for 140 IQ than a 100 one?

A future iPhone could feature a curved surface that wraps around to give a screen on both sides.I fail to see much value in that. What would make sense would be device that's a larger second screen slaved to an iPhone with the touch functions. It co…

Apple's lawyers and those of its Silicon Valley neighbors do not impress. When you're fighting an opponent with the size and reach of the EU, you need to be careful not to leave any legal loose ends lying about. They will come around to bite. That'…

Excellent points. Most of the DOJ's arguments are dated and make little sense. The only really solid case the DOJ could make are the (sometimes) 30% charges Apple makes for its 'monopoly' app store and no-alternative in-app charges made for services…

Will matte offer something I'd love to see on iPads, a 'feels like paper' texture for the glass. A less slippery surface would make using an Apple Pencil feel more like using a traditional pencil or pen. That would be a plus for those doing graphics.

The 22-year-old woman, who uses the social handle "Meatball," has been held for court on charges that include burglary, conspiracy, and criminal trespass, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported. Her video included footage of people stealing from the App…

Expected updates as part of iOS 18 include a hearing aid mode feature destined for the AirPods Pro, while AirPods may gain a hearing test function. My hearing isn't great but not so bad that I need the cost and hassles of a standard hearing aid. I'd…

Builders often have valuable tools, chargers and other equipment stolen from construction sites. Apple would do well to come up with a wider variety of packages for AirTags, so they can be installed in more places. For instance I'd love to have a th…

there's one problem that modern "AI" algorithms can account for — other humans on the road.I think you meant "cannot account for..." That's hardly surprising. As humans we also have trouble accounting for the behavior of other humans. I always drive…

$50 million a season with ten episodes seems like quite a bargain compared to what Amazon spent for the first season of "The Rings of Power." That $50 million for a season wouldn't even cover a single episode of the latter. Accounting for just the …

I'd be happy enough to see the top be a sleeve that's a screw-on and replaceable battery.

Given how often many people glance at their phones and how much additional hassle opening up a folding phone would be, I doubt the idea of a folding phone makes much sense. Apple might be better advised to adopt a different idea, one that'd allow t…

If Stewart hasn't say it, I guess in a strange way we can't say that Apple punished him for saying it. And yet are we headed for a Minority Report world where people are punished for what they might say?

Wearing a Vision Pro to look at patient data, such as that captured during a CAT scan makes sense. Wearing it while talking with patients would be freakish.

This is hardly surprising. The UK, once called the "mother of parliaments" for pioneering democracy and the rule of law, is rapidly becoming a faceless dictatorship of meddlesome bureaucrats." A UK barrister (courtroom lawyer) who calls himself the …
