The problem with behemoths like Apple is they know few can afford to defend their rights in court so they exploit that to their advantage constantly. Apple is a bully, just face it. Pretty much always has been, even (or especially) under Jobs. Mi…

No way I’m paying anything for Apple’s service. I like how even John Oliver mocked it in his latest episode. I don’t mind Paramount+, but it lacks some truly big drawcards.

Mike Wuerthele said: I'll try to convince the folks that helped me with this review to pick up a M2 Max 38-core. Anecdotally, other folks I've spoken to about it during the process of making this review are seeing gains in the M3 Max 30 versus …

It'll be a very bad look for Apple when the first person dies after they had a capable phone but weren't subscribed to the service. For this reason I don't think Apple could ever require payment for the feature when they're such a massively rich an…

I’m interested in a comparison between the M3 Max 30-core and M2 Max 38-core, especially since they reduced memory bandwidth from 400 to 300 GB/s in that M3 Max version. Has anyone tested it yet?

Apple may be big, but the EU is bigger. The perpetual bully will have a taste of its own medicine…again. And unlike American politics, Apple can’t bribe their way out of it with lobbyists and corporate donations. The EU simply isn’t the same kind…

Be nice if when removing functionality on the basis of security they could replace it with something equivalent but secure instead of just making macOS less compatible and capable. macOS has been getting increasingly difficult to work with (mainly …

quarx said: Does upgrading to macOS Sonoma also break the conversion from EPS to PDF via ghostscript and epstopdf? Ghostscript is third-party isn't it? But yes, eps2pdf and Preview EPS import seem to be gone as well.

Okay, but can someone tell me how to print a nicely formatted man page now when I used to use ps2pdf?

Apple’s message: Pleb iPhone owners don’t deserve to have nice colours.

It’s missing brown-beige. Talk about uninspired.

Damn, not even a Pro Max? I suppose it’s better than eating your son for a blu-ray player.

DOA. Nuff said.

They need a 120 Hz Studio display to compliment it.

Cue the Tim Cook "Good moaning" and his clasped hands praying to...Steve Jobs himself?

They still haven’t beaten that iMac G4’s floating display arm. That computer got a lot of sales in customer service/kiosks for that reason alone.

Obscene doesn’t even begin to describe it. So glad I don’t use and aggressively block all Google products, services and tracking.

This seems very slow considering OLED laptops have been a thing for quite a while now. I know Apple’s requirements are a lot higher than current offerings, but still. The iPhone OLED can already hit 2000 nits. Is it that hard to scale these to la…
