The bar is so high, it's not a problem for users unless they're facing nation state? Yet, the bar is so low, it's feasible to use it as a jailbreak mechanism? Those two things are completely contradictory. You realize that roommates probably have…

The Mini was always my platform of choice over the years because it seemed stupid to replace a perfectly good monitor every time I got a new computer. I owned/used around half a dozen at home and work. Being OS ambidextrous myself, Apple's prices …

I somehow missed that the plant had come online. Great news!

Afarstar said: “Apple devices don’t need regular reboots“ THEY DO They don't unless something is wrong with it. And anyway, they get one every time there's an iOS update, every month or so. That's more than often enough.

My first gut reaction to this is that Indonesia is being pretty unreasonable here, refusing even the original amount negotiated. And they are... But then, Apple (and everyone, really) desperately needs to diversify out of China for a host of reaso…

Ignoring their wishes seems kinda rude - it's their wedding. But not going is an option. Not to say that I care that much about wearing a watch or not, Apple or otherwise. But I also kinda feel like if I knew someone this hung up on the presence …

"For the children, it's the death of a friend." For children for whom this is true, the kids are probably better off in the long run. It's not (and never was) a friend. It's an LLM in a cute box. Don't get me wrong, LLMs can absolutely be …

I stopped wearing a watch around the time I got the first iPhone, but throughout the 90's, I was sporting a Casio calculator watch. So I'm no stranger to large and/or nerdy watches. But I got my first Apple Watch (Ultra 2) in October and I'm lovin…

"Problems for server farms and accessory makers"?? The old Mac Mini was ~85in^3 and the new one is only 50in^3. That's a *HUGE* improvement for rack mount solutions. But oh noes! I might have to buy a new $500 mounting kit to house my $10,000 wo…

Yeah, it doesn't matter at all when you're gaming - especially in a multi-player game, and your mouse dies unexpectedly. The 39 other people in your raid will be happy to wait while you get a coffee after the wipe you caused... The port on the bott…

"1. Ensure the Apple Watch is charged to at least 50% and connected to Wi-Fi" The directions in my Settings app say nothing about being at 50%, but instead says the watch has to be on a charger. I think the 50% thing is the instruction for iPhone …

I'd love to see the continuous monitors integrate better with Apple Health, especially the new OTC devices. Abbott's Lingo will import data from Apple Health, but won't send data the other way.
