Apple should neither lift nor prevent this. whether an app has or hasn’t continuous access to BT should be a matter a user decides the same way user decide over location settings, access to microphone an camera, etc. Apple is too restrictive, not …

I’m not a fan boy, but isn’t “being bested” an odd headline when you’re coming from behind and catching up? Reading that headline I expected reading that Apple lost a lead it had, not that it’s gaining ground on established leaders. So: “Apple Mus…

Bravo, as BS as the battery lawsuit is, as appropriate is this. Any other products you can get heavily discounted, due to competition, but Apple manages to keep all distributors and retailers in line, best discounts are a few dollars off, or some “…

Totally ridiculous! If I buy chips e.g. from Newark and build some sort of computing device, why the fuck should I be liable for the IP infringement of the company producing the chips? Apple uses standard IEEE WiFi standards by buying industry stand…

Potentially, the “cracked” phone used only an easily guessable 4-digit numerical passcode, while the others use a alphanumeric password. A worst case 10’000 codes is doable by hardware, particularly since on average it should take only 5’000 guesse…

Why is a 7 year old acting like a toddler? At 7 years he should be old enough not to chew on things and swallow them... 🤦🏻♂️

Why is this even patentable? hypertext is hypertext, if in an SMS, e-mail, etc. is pretty much irrelevant: it’s all electronic text

HeliBum said: Breaking encryption is against the law as a result of the DMCA, so I see Apple as having legal justification for this action if encryption is being broken to accomplish the hacks, which it likely is. Breaking encryption isn’t…

And what are/were the apps in question?

Apple: go fuck yourselves! And while you’re at it: please show all of Europe as Germany, the 1000 year Reich is barely existing for a few decades. And stop your sanctimonious LGBTI+++ crap: Russia’s government is about as homophobic as it gets. So…

dewme said: This can be managed. If this sets a precedent that spreads into other locales I suppose Apple could implement a locale-specific virtual machine inside iOS that hosts all of the mandated local apps. These local apps would run insid…

Looking at the spending habits of “influencers”, “Instagram babes”, “pouty lip glamour girls”, the cries of desperation of buddies who have to pick up the tabs of their GF’s and wives spending habits: It can’t come at a surprise, that if simple cre…

Screw subscription. The Afinity app series (Publisher, Designer, Photo) do enough of what the bloated Adobe apps do, and for a fraction of the subscription, you own the apps. Of the three apps, two are already on the iPad, so they are even in that …

davgreg said: The PPC chips were RISC type chips like the ARM chips. RISC or CISC is utterly irrelevant. First RISC CPUs have become more CISC-like as time went on, second CISC CPUs have adopted RISC-like micro architectures. Third, and m…

I want a system that works WITHOUT uploading ANY audio or video to any server, except maybe, after local encryption with a password non-recoverable by Apple, to iCloud. The whole point of using HomeKit over other platforms, is privacy. I fail to se…

The worst part: every damn OS release, they keep changing the database format, when all that would be required is .../mailbox/YYYY/MM/DD/ folders with .emlx files and a decent index that can be rebuilt as needed. One would think, with that many dat…
