The two tech poster children for tech-related tariffs are Apple and Nvidia. It's maddening when the pain is self-induced. The administration has made a radical departure from previous tactic of limiting sales for Nvidia and I hope that they see the …

Sees headlines. Jumps straight to comments section. lol Imagine you want the US to win this vast conspiracy by the rest of the world to eat America's lunch, that you want the US to out-compete and level the playing field, whatever that means. Imagi…

I know there are always a ton of device stress videos like bending, scratching, drop tests, submerging, etc. on YouTube immediately after a new phone is released and they're popular. This article is so interesting because it shows how much design re…

Aaaand the stock tanks on reporting. This is about the tariff overhang. Apple is really exposed in this new regime - hardware is 100% a headache and a slide in services guidance doesn’t help. It would be quite counterproductive for the whims of t…

Cover for their whiplash policies. You've imposed draconian measures, economic pugilism, by whim. Now you want to study the impact? Isn't this late, and backwards? Imagine that you're in a war and you're on the battle field and not happy with how t…

Imagine you're in a war and you're not happy with how it's going and you decide that the best strategy would be to attack your own supply lines. Then you decide that attacking your allies is another front you want to open up. Americans want to bui…

I hate that the news here on AI has devolved into nationalism and partisanship but I guess that's the temp of the world right now. Calls for Apple to leave the EU makes absolutely no sense and every single person commenting that understands that.

anonymouse said EU Law is a joke. EU law is so entirely vague and open to subjective interpretation that anyone perceived to have deep pockets can quite easily be deemed to be in violation of it. The way it's written, all they have to do is fab…

Wow, I did not expect all the hate I've seen here. I think that Apple needs to continue to incrementally improve their existing apps and bringing out new apps like this. Invitations is sorely, sorely overdue but this really checks a lot of boxes and…

"Can't innovate anymore, my ass." /s Bringing invites to calendar will make an important incremental improvement to Calendar. That's what they need to do, just keep adding things. This really seems decades past due but, sure, bring it on. And plea…

That's interesting. It does raise a few questions. * Can you just decline the monthly "subscription" at the Apple Store point of sale and then just pay that one-time online within 60 days? * Are they reacting belatedly to many people waiting longe…

FYI - this isn't a perfect comparison. This offer from B&H has a 256 GB hard drive, not 512 which is the comparison device selling for $1,299 from Apple's website but otherwise identical. I see that identical devices from B&H are $150 off th…

If the article is meant to teach people how to use Shortcuts that makes sense but I'd scratching my head trying to imagine the scenario where this would be useful. Of the over billion iOS devices in use today, I'm not sure how many situations would …

I think it's important that they have it enabled even if the public doesn't care much. They've addressed the "fallen behind" criticism and have the platform for incredible developments. I don't have an Apple Intelligence-capable device but I'm looki…

I appreciate this story very much. It's about AI but also about the obsolescence that thrives under capitalism. We need to think about how this impact people. Thanks for sharing a firsthand account.
