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…

I also like Photo Stream, I've been using it since Apple introduced it. I take a lot of 'disposable' pictures on my iPhone so am happy to just extract those that are keepers. My main photo library lives on my Mac so I don't have any issues with reso…

sflocal said:Apple customers go into the iPhone ecosystem for everything these whiny-developers are against. Quite right. And those that aren't informed or interested in the issues go into Apple's ecosystem and just get looked after. Isn't…

"In terms of content, we kind of lost that battle 10 years ago," Farley said. "So like get real with it, because you're not going to make a ton of money on content inside the vehicle." There's someone that understands their market. Not only are the …

Sixth para: "earlu ". Have you guys turned off spell checking, that's every story I've read so far today?

Last para: "App Strore". How'd that get past the spell checker?

Apple desperately needs to improve their search (eg I always use Google to find Apple developer documents because Apple's own tools are so poor). If they had their own search engine, they could then make Maps a whole more useful informative about b…

"Unlike the Sonos Beam and Sonos Arc, the Ray accepts audio via optical". I have two Beams and both came with an optical to HDMI converter. I actually use it in one case because I've run out of HDMI ports. The functionality is almost as good as with…

There is a problem here: Apple has designed the App Store and wider ecosystem to protect its users even when they don't know they're being protected: "it just works". So it's important that people know what they will be giving away when they are off…

"According to statistics published by Apple, 79% of U.S. car buyers wouldn't even consider purchasing a vehicle without CarPlay". Wow! If this is true then the US car market is certainly different to that in the UK. I presume the people surveyed wer…

The problem remains that while Apple counts cities where Look Around works, Google counts countries for Street View. Apple's mapping locations page has listed lots of parts of the UK where they are capturing imagery (including my town) but there's …
