I use cotton swabs dipped in 70% isopropyl alcohol (aka rubbing alcohol). Works great on cleaning all parts of the AirPods, the case charging contacts, and picking up debris. When wet, the swabs are less likely to fray and leave cotton threads eve…

It is very difficult, but not completely impossible, to rack up $40,000 in charges at Disneyland/DisneyWorld. That being said, such large transactions (or many smaller ones) would have been flagged as fraudulent and blocked by any credit card iss…

Everyone's missing the point; a studio or a director doesn't have to sell the rights to their films. No one is holding a gun to their head and forcing them to accept an offer. The ability to say "no" is more powerful than all the money in the worl…

Thank heavens. Did they not receive a mountain of negative feedback from developers and AppleSeed testers over the summer? I guess Apple needed a very clear reminder from the public that the Mac is not an iPhone. How did that even get past UX tes…

I wanted to compare these new shades to the Lutron Serena Smart Blinds, which has been pretty much the only game in town for ultra-wide blinds (over 48") or for homeowners who wanted to "graduate" from IKEA to something nicer. For those of you who …

"Authorizing the request via Face ID or Touch ID releases the data from, a procedure that Apple notes does not require users to unlock, show or hand over their device." Uh, I think the author had a stroke while writing this sentence. Can you ple…

If multiple high-ranking executives at Apple have to come out with damage control PR in the span of one week, this should be a clue that the initiative, however well-intentioned, is deeply unpopular and should be abandoned. Apple is not law enforce…

Fair point. Corellium hasn't announced that they are ceasing operations so they didn't "lose" per se. One of three things happened: - Apple didn't have a case and wanted to give up quietly; - The judge only found that Corellium violated portions …

Color me unsurprised. After Vine, Snapchat, Instagram and TikTok, the world did not need yet another short-form video social media platform.

Surely Apple must realize that there is a very well known temp & staffing agency called AppleOne that has been around for over 50 years. https://www.appleone.com. Last week, Apple filed a suit against a tiny company for a pear-shaped logo wit…

I bought this TV from Best Buy less than a month ago to use in the office as a second monitor, not knowing anything about its feature set. I was pleasantly surprised by everything. Setup was quick, operation has been very smooth. It's very light …

"The company has also implemented a blanket ban on apps used to commit or attempt to commit crimes by evading police. Previously, it only barred apps that tracked DUI checkpoints." This was probably requested by the lawyers to clarify their previou…
