  • New UK ID app yet again fumbles tech that Apple has already perfected

    kkqd1337kkqd1337
    It will be a disaster. Most government projects are.

    But:

    1. Whatever the implementation, there will be a huge amount of public scepticism and resistance in the UK about using any digital ID. People in the UK are extremely against and anxious about being forced into a cashless/digital only society. Occasionally a politician will propose the idea of a national identity card and they get destroyed. This will feel like a road to this, so will be hated.

    2. Personally I agree Governments should only be deploying digital IDs on platforms they have absolute control of. Yes it will be garbage compared to Apple & Google's implementation, but I don't trust Apple/Google/Microsoft at all and I think we need to be careful as a society how reliant we become on them.

  • Apple's biggest innovation of the last 25 years isn't the iPhone

    kkqd1337kkqd1337

    Apple's biggest innovation of the past 25 years is arguably the iPhone.

    Here's why:

    • Revolutionized Mobile Computing: The iPhone transformed how we communicate, access information, and consume entertainment. It wasn't just a phone; it was a pocket computer, camera, music player, and more.  
    • App Store Ecosystem: The App Store created a thriving ecosystem of developers and innovative applications, shaping the mobile app industry as we know it.  
    • Touchscreen Interface: While not the first touchscreen device, the iPhone popularized the intuitive multi-touch interface that is now ubiquitous in smartphones.  
    • Cultural Impact: The iPhone has had a profound cultural impact, influencing fashion, social norms, and how we interact with technology.  

    While other innovations like the iPod and MacBook Air were significant, the iPhone's impact on society and technology is arguably unparalleled.

  • 2025 iPad and iPad Air -- what to expect, and when to expect it

    The hardware is largely irrelevant now

    iPadOS is where all the work is needed

  • Thinner, smarter, more connected: What to expect from a 2025 Apple TV

    I really love my ATV

    It’s the best and fastest streaming box I ever used 

    Honestly I don’t think Apple need to bother updating it for even another 2 years. The competition are so far behind.

    Upgrades however always welcome. But AI is literally junk.
