StrangeDays said: The thing with mandating outside in-app payments - it enables devs to deploy a free app but require an IAP to unlock functionality. Thus if using the mall metaphor, as landlord Apple provides the developer retailers with a f…

IR temperature sensors are fairly common, the problem is the accuracy when attached to extremities where ambient temperatures can affect measurements. That’s why normally measurements are made in ears, the forehead, etc. and not on the wrist.

So, is the product not running, or just not “certified” i.e. not tested as nausea? I know from other software that runs just fine on a particular platform without being “certified”…

hackintoisier said: This is one idea Apple needs to abandon. Do the scanning server side. Don’t scan on device. Period. Don’t scan. Period. Prevent scanning by anyone for any reason as best as technically possible. Period. Apple’s busine…

ErikSomething said: What’s so wrong with constantly scanning everyone’s devices without their consent for content that the government might find objectionable? If they don’t know what’s best for you - who will? We did elect them after all (ex…

bloggerblog said: I feel Apple is not going to be able to do that because the whole thing is very unApple and reeks of government intervention. Unfortunately it reeks of the new Apple that is too busy being woke instead of simply providin…

davidmalcolm said: Honestly the device side scanning was a privacy thing. They should just not encrypt iCloud photos and scan them for child porn of any kind like Facebook and Google already do. I’m tired of all these people acting like you d…

slow n easy said: Well at least this idea isn’t as bad as the third party App Store idea, where you would have viruses and and bad apps harming consumers. Because without the Walled Garden, how could Apple differentiate themselves from Androi…

Illusive said: So they want us to buy untested rubbish so then can alter it as they see fit with every update? No, thanks. Long live sandboxing! Sandboxing is OK for random office software, but it’s useless for almost all utilities. For t…

Wouldn’t Sony (as buyer of Konica-Minolta’s Camera assets) also hold a few patents? https://m.dpreview.com/reviews/minoltadimagex

I understand why there’s just a single fingerprint, but who says it’s actually the correct one? One can do face identification, and yet use someone else’s finger… Also, the main purpose of having stored more than one finger isn’t to let others use …

The point of using a Mac over say an iPad Pro is that you’re not within a jailed environment. But Mac AppStore have similar restrictions als iOS apps, so obviously the most interesting Mac apps cannot possibly sold on the AppStore, as they provide f…
