I can just hear the idiot customers not wanting this feature because of the use of the camera and their paranoia about cameras secretly recording users to send back to Apple to sell your personal info. 🙄 These are the same idiots who don’t read the…

Was it that, or was it that the economy worldwide isn’t doing that great and the EU is picking its battles a little more wisely. US retail numbers aren’t too good and I don’t expect the EU’s numbers to be much better.

Has the European Commission ever released a report on how many smaller competitors that are not Epic or Spotify are harmed by Apple specifically by anti-competitive practices and not by bad business decisions? I remember some dating apps that were …

I think part of this overblown outrage is because of Apple violating its own rule about not talking about unreleased products. The Siri ad for Apple intelligence reminded me of the old 80’s AT&T ad where they showed you the future of technology…

If anyone ever used HomeKit and had a hub, they kinda knew the AI Siri part was complete bullshit. There’s no way they could have gotten everything together in this short time AND fixed the bugs that Homekit has with Siri being intertwined. One big…

File this under “Be careful what you wish for”. If Epics claim is true, then where are the amicus briefs of the other developers who were “hurt” by Apple’s implementation of the judge’s order? Where is Spotify? The truth is more likely that the de…

The 16e is really for people who want an iPhone, but don’t want to spend $800. Sure for $200 more you can get a better iPhone, but there are plenty of people who don’t want a 16 and would rather get a 14 or 15 just because of the price. They don’t c…

charlesn said: I am shocked... SHOCKED, I say! Who woulda thunk that after 15 years of Siri idiocy under Apple, Apple wasn't going to be able to fix it in 10 months? The WWDC announcement last year always seemed suspect--it was like we were b…

I wonder what those watch bands from all of my digital watches from the 80s were made from?

Back when Costco started selling these all-in-one bundles with keyboards, mice, and AppleCare for the same price as Apple’s mini, I was intrigued. They were a bit tricky to open, and I accidentally broke a few teeth on different cases while upgradin…
