It's not on my phone yet. Are the updates the same for everyone? Staggered?

Oh good god, learn some physics. - The watch works by shining photons. - The point of dark skin is to absorb photons - Less photons means less data. = If it was possible to shine more photons they would say that Apple was racist for the battery …

Moan. Moanpolymnia said:Where are all the people who held Pixelmator up as David versus Adobe’s Goliath, fighting the good fight on the side of consumer rights?

Yes, apple needs to stop with these featureless slabs and realized that tactile feedback is important. (And making it vibrate a half second after you press the fake button is not "Tactile feedback")

If you want to prevent unionization, treat your workers with respect. Apple forced workers to stand for a half hour a day unpaid for security checks. And the standard claims of making the working environment less flexible is insulting. No union e…

I've never tried Tile, but am rather disappointed with Apple AirTags. You can't connect one tag to multiple phones. That makes things very awkward, with any shared item yielding endless "You are being stalked" warnings. Also, going into a store y…

Now that the Mac Studio is out, and updated Mac Mini has far less importance. They could (should) just put an M1 Pro in the existing case and nothing else will be needed until 4mm chips come out. At that point, maybe they will have an even lower c…

A company that can't put two ports on an iPad has no business trying to build a car. Apple just doesn't bring anything to the table that would make a car great.

This is more about naming conventions then actually what is in the chips. Customers are likely to assume that anything "M2" must be faster than any "M1" chip. But Apple ultimately decides what the names actually mean, and might do things different…

Oops, double post. But more to the point, why doesn't the expensive stuff do what my $5 gadget can do? The time that my phone runs out on me is when I am hiking, not when I am in my house near plugs.

Okay, I just wired a 9 volt battery to a $5 USB cigarette lighter adaptor, and the result can charge my iPhone while it is in my pocket. Why is all this other junk so expensive?

Forget the electronics, it's time for hardware lens caps built into the cameras.

I'm pretty sure that Lightning does NOT include USB 3 compatibility. If it did, then 1) Apple would have said so in the introduction, 2) they would not have emphasized wireless syncing, 3) USB 3 needs 9 pins on its own, leaving nothing else for t…

Yes, the last time I checked, the Macbook made no sense at all given how much more you got for the 13' pro.

The big evil from Sony was the root kit: People innocently playing store-bought music CDs would, without their knowledge, have a root kit installed on their PCs that would install copy protection for audio CDS. It also accidentally (?) opened up s…

Industry abhors simplicity - they just had to make it complicated. Unless this port does something dramatically better then the mini-display port, (Speed? Cable length?) then I'd say that this is just childish vindictive behavior. They need the …

Credit to HP, their printers are better then Epson's.
