First Spotify (probably not first, but earlier), then Epic, and now Facebook, complain about Apple’s «Dominant Position». Others are sure to join the clamor. They want to force Apple to do their bidding, i.e. not denying them anything, by weaponizin…

This all happened before, to quote one well-regarded opinionator. Apple made the same mistake when that type of Hermes strap first launched, years back. Ah well, nobody’s perfect. A fine strap, though, and I am sure the deployant clasp is a marvel o…

Mr Østvang was even more lucky than Appleinsider reports. He was actually visiting with friends, staying overnight. He then went to the bathroom in the middle of the night, suffered a fall, hit his head and lost consciousness. His Apple watch trigge…

Soli said: rarild said: What happened to the old barn? Good question. I haven't noticed a barn within of the drone flyovers. I wasn't looking for it, but I'd think it would stand out. I seem to recall reading that it would be used…

Re: upgrading: 60% of iPhone users AS OF Sept. 2014, when the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus were announced, have not upgraded to a 6/S or 6 Plus/S, AS OF December 2015. Those people. That does not mean, however, that only 40% of users NOW have a newer iPhone.…

I am trying to muster a sense of shock here. DED says that Android users risk downloading snooping-infectious apps, even from Google Play, even now? No I don't feel profoundly shocked after all, sorry. Maybe I am callous dastard.

I have skimmed through most of the posts to get this far. I am glad you guys are having earnest (mostly) discussions about the merits of HoloLens, but boy, is it boring! You guys are soo seeriouuss… I want to credit Devastating DED with yet another…

A 12.9 inch iPad with a regular Retina resolution of 2048 x 1536 will have 198-200 ppi. Doubling up to the next level, 4096 x 3072, battery power, GPU and thermal envelope permitting, means 396-400 ppi. Not outside the realm of possibility. The pri…

Not that I need to know any of this technical stuff, but it actually is fun to read about it, the way DED writes it. Apart from admiring D's deep knowledge and analytical skills, it makes me respect and admire Apple even more. It seems design is mor…

Microsoft's and Google's successes, whether by hook or by crook, also came to them in MASSIVELY expanding markets. First, the PC market expanded massively, to the point where the PC became a pervasive everywhere-technology. Then everyone had to upgr…

The old mobile phone companies, like Motorola, Nokia and Samsung, have lots of patents on phone and network technology. These patents are mostly standards-essential, meaning the patent holders have committed to licencing out to all comers, including…

Amazon wants to open a few more branches. The kindle fire is just another shop front. Owners of Android devices spend far less on paid content than do owners of iOS devices. If kindle fire owners don't buy much from amazon, what are they going to…

In Norway a 25 % VAT rate was applied to all digital download sales from July 1, so that is the reason for the price hike here up north. Other than that, the exchange rate effect has only been moderately negative for Apple's prices in Norway, histor…

I just need to relate the amazing figure of 160m iOS devices to the Google WebM video codec push. The inferior WebM will most likely not be supported on iOS and neither will equally inferior Flash wrapper/player. So, will content providers happily i…
