It boggles the mind. Why would anyone use Lastpass? It’s the last password manager I’d ever use: Lastpass. Used to use 1Password until, I forget exactly but something about their upgrades or subscriptions I didn’t like. iCloud Keychain now suffices…

The main issue I had on ‘Venus’ was that my phone was flat the whole time since there are neatly inset 30-pin Dock connectors all around the ship, which must’ve seen like a great idea at the time.

Can’t wait. Only didn’t buy the M1 Mac mini because it replaced the the i3 Mac mini and the i5 Mac mini stayed there for US$200 above the M1 price at the same config. Apple Silicon is crazy fast, but I neeed speed. Had I know it would take this long…

If you have the previous iPad Pro, you don’t need to upgrade. My 1st gen 12.9” iPad Pro from 2015 is still going strong, keyboard and pencil still working well. If you do want to upgrade, the old one and keyboard have great resale value. I know peop…

Also, there are lots of folks who for whatever reason are more susceptible to fall for scams. Be it a phishing scam email, a ‘free’ game that is cleverly designed to encourage you to throw money into it, and hour long informercial in the middle of t…

I am 100% against coins, gems, randomised loot boxes, and other freemium IAP garbage. It is gambling, it is a scam. Bring it on. Such software should be illegal. Subscriptions to keep playing or using an app to support continuing development, that…

Heard of plenty of failed 2019 butterfly keyboards. I certainly wouldn’t buy one.

Sometimes if listening to music and I try to make a call, then click an AirPod Pro to hang up, that AirPod Pro goes silent and the music only resumes playback through the other one. Until I set the music to play through the phone and then the AirPod…

Sad about the SE. It’s a smaller 6s, just with slower TouchID. 6/6+ need to go though, no OS updates.

iCloud Drive Desktop & Documents sync has always done this. Super handy. Everything is stored locally on my iMac with its huge drive, and backed up with versioning to time machine - but everything is available but does not take up space on my iP…

Ok, that wording is for the current Apple Watch Edition - the ceramic version that is the most expensive design having replaced the original Gold Edition watches. So plantif has Apple Watch Edition? May well have a case then. Wife and I both have…

Also, he is married with two daughters. It’s not a good look for a CEO. If he were unmarried and there was no company policy against this, fine. But that’s not the case. And for those saying he’s dropped the ball, well, maybe he has... but it was…

All drives fail. At some point. All spinning platter hard disks fail much more commonly. If they offer this, there needs to be very detailed full drive testing first as part of the conversion process, and also require a valid within last 7 days ti…

To the guy above who complained Apple had turned communist because they wouldn’t change his battery in his liquid damaged MacBook Pro without replacing another liquid damaged part, the logic board, and to everyone else, consider the following: Afte…

This will be less of an issue over time. The problem is, it’s a 32bit CPU. 2013 brought the A7 family to the iPhone 5s and the original iPad Air. The A7 contained the first 64bit ARM CPUs to ship in consumer devices. They will run the current softw…

Garbage apps unfortunately.
