Apple Pay now available in Lowe's home improvement stores
Yeah, I know, but it wastes time, thus money, and the execs don't like that.Xed said:
You know there isn't one employee in your local Lowes that has any say in the corporate decision. Why actively make an hourly employee's day worse?bonobob said:Even though I know they don't take Apple Pay, I always try and then complain when it doesn't work. If they can be annoying to me, I can return the favor.

At my local Lowe's, the garden shop, prior to this announcement, took Apple Pay, while the main registers did not. Exactly the opposite of what's being announced now. -
Apple won't offer Apple Watch service replacements on out of warranty devices
If you want to be sure you can't get a replacement for a damaged or defective watch, yes (did you read the article?)rob53 said:So does this mean I should cancel my monthly AppleCare contract on my Model 7 watch?

Apple sends iPhone threat alerts to India opposition politicians
I think it would be more appropriate to ignore the Narendra Modi shill instead.guyfromnrt said:I, generally, keep myself away from commenting on such issues. But, if Gandhi is telling this, then please ignore.
I wish I could comment more. But, just ignore Gandhi.

Apple is still slow to purge scam apps in the Mac App Store
Just change the URL from apps.apple.com/us/... to apps.apple.com/ca/... (or whichever country code is appropriate for your store). This has worked for me numerous times when I've been given a link to a non-US, non-English language App Store.22july2013 said:
That's an interesting approach. I like it. However it may have one challenge: Apple App store links are (or can be) different for each country you are in. So if I go to the UPS website (ie, the American UPS website, because I use Google to get the company's link, and it often returns the US link even if the company has a Canadian website) and then try to get a link to their app from their US site, I may be directed to the US app which may not be a valid link in Canada. You appear to be an American and you probably only care about American companies, so this may not be an issue for you.mayfly said:This isn't a threat to diligent Apple users. If I want an app that isn't made by Apple, I navigate to the company website (UPS or American Airlines, for instance) and click the link to their app from there. Just assuming that if a third party app is on the App Store, it's safe for you to download, well, you're asking for it.
