Once again, the stupidity of a government entity rears its head... The success of iPhone is highly driven by the controlled ecosystem that Apple has built and its consumers desire, the very ecosystem that the governments are trying to tear down. It…

Companies contract with a multitude of vendors for goods or services. Sometimes they rely on multiple vendors for the same component/service, sometimes they enter in a single-vendor/exclusive agreements. They have this right, for most any reason t…

"Japan's regulator does allow that this may not always be possible, however. It adds "except when justifications are recognized from the viewpoint of security assurance and privacy protection."Well, duh, this is sort of the paramount point and the r…

Foldable phones don't make much sense (remember the flip phone? So gone now)... a foldable tablet might, in some cases (certainly makes them more portable, and they are more deliberately used devices than a phone which we use 100 times an hour), mak…

Apple, are you going to give us a holiday gift (Home and HomePod updates), or do those coals remain in our collective stockings???

Mess for me too, though I don't know if it was the Home architecture upgrade or the Original HomePod 16.3 update which were rolled at the same time. Either one or both broke the default audio out from the Apple TV 4k (2nd and third generations) to…

I'm a big Apple fan, but the News app in general is quite a bit of a mess. Too many stories require jumping into a News web browser sub-interface, which have hosts of pop-ups, fly-overs, repeated cookie confirmation windows. In-line News stories ar…

Apple recently began iPhone 14 manufacturing in India - articles never really reference this… I have no idea as to capacity and while I’m sure it’s not close the China, I do wonder how much ramp up capability they have there to offset some of the sl…

what an annoying song...

Amazing they are still hiring, if even at a reduced level, given other tech layoffs. Continues to show that Apple maintains such a different value proposition to its customers, and seem to be far better planning resource requirements and assessing m…

The win here would be AR, not VR, at least in the early innings IMO. A headset that allows you to see the real world, with overlays of information when needed. A strong focus on vertical markets such as financial, manufacturing, education, quality c…

Never bought crypto; never understood it, and I suspect 99% of the people who have "invested" don't either. Lemmings should be aware there is always a cliff somewhere ahead...
