If I side load an app onto my new iPhone, does that void the warranty? Serious question: suppose I load some dreadfully (or maliciously) coded app that seeks to occupy all the processor cores at 100% all the time in the background. My battery then …

TheSparkle said: We did this at a place I worked once. Think it was a bit longer than a week. Either way the time absolutely flew by. Just the investigation phase took days sometimes. Fix, test, re-fix cycles. A week will fly by. Some overtim…

Pleased you're OK, if a tad sore. Good to see a story from you on AI again too - more please.

Could we please stop these irrelevant rambling political pieces from this author. There seems to be a technology story in there somewhere, between technology companies and the mayor of London, but dragging in a random selection of 'UK is doomed' p…

dewme said: Today, a lot of software development organizations follow a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD or simply CD) model which, in theory, means that every build or every daily build is in a releasable state. In other words,…

Hopefully they'll go on to fix some more bugs now! When I went to install the update, I noticed that all the info across the top of the home screen (eg time, battery, network etc) had disappeared (and not for the first time). The cameras also strugg…

y2an said: Why is iOS not taking action on excessive energy use by apps and giving warnings, or slowing them down? That is, after all, why we have operating systems. 'Cos Apple gets taken to court when its software slows down the CPU to p…

timmillea said: Then, it is poor form to have the phone always with you. Keep it on a charging stand in your office unless you are going to be travelling alone. It is a social faux pas to use your phone in company. You don't use the came…

retrogusto said: A few years ago I wrote to Apple to ask for something similar for laptops. I mostly buy laptops, but 99% of the time I use them at home plugged in, and on occasion I use them elsewhere, but almost never far from an outlet. So…

The button has also lost functionality: with the 'old' slider switch, you can glance at it (without waking the phone's display) and see whether mute is on or off. You can also feel the setting (if your memory's good enough) and you can't get confoun…

Could we have the William Gallagher who writes intelligent articles back please? This item, and its predecessor, read like political polemics. There is no link between fighting CSAM and the problems in UK schools with RAAC (unless some AI wrote …

A disappointing piece of "new" design, if true, is that "the mute-ring switch will become a customizable Action button". The mute switch is a valuable answer to a real-world issue, it makes it easy and discreet to silence the phone whether at the t…

As a European observer, I thought that one of the motives for bringing this plant to the US was create/grow the skills locally. As such, "insufficient amount of skilled workers with the specialized expertise required for equipment installation in a …

I found the TouchBar almost useless and don't mourn its demise. Please don't try to give me a full touch-screen display on my MacBook: I'm not yet past all the things that Apple used to say about having to stretch over the keyboard to get to the dis…

Russian government abandons iPhones for local product. I expect there are a few people in a few Western security agencies pleased to hear that...

There's a difference between theatre and cinema. I value the live events because they are 'of the moment' and it's good to see the real (not filmed) people interacting with an audience, not just speaking their script. It's not about hoping for failu…
