  • Apple service documents suggest new hardware release coming on Dec. 8

    Hopefully it’s a handheld Apple microphone together with a karaoke feature for Apple Music. This would be huge. It’s insane that Apple hasn’t done this yet.

    But most likely it’s headphones.

  • Apple's iPhone 12 mini has us questioning our larger phones

    I really hope Apple makes a mini pro next year!

    I’ve mostly been on the regular pro, although I tried the max for a year. I’m 5x more efficient on the smaller phone, and I’m still having to pause, reach with my thumb, use two thumbs to type, etc.

  • Twitter launches disappearing 'Fleets' feature globally

    First they interfere with the election by blocking the hunter biden laptop story, then they release a feature named after an enema product (Fleet Enema). Twitter is on a roll lol.

  • Apple One fails to solve issues with multiple Apple IDs

    lkrupp said:
    Never understood the need or desire for multiple Apple IDs. I have had the same, single Apple ID since day one. To this day users login to their iPhone or Mac with a different Apple ID than the one they used to purchase music or videos and wonder why that content is not showing up. The bitching is constant. 
    How is this so hard to understand for people??

    Apple is screwing over its customers with perpetually bumbled services. 

    Here’s what happened to a lot of people, including me: 
    -started an iTunes account with a non Apple email ID
    -started a separate iCloud email account when getting iPhone, bc Apple forces this in order to fully use iCloud features
    -Apple doesn’t allow merging of iTunes email/ID with iCloud ID to fix this problem
    -I believe one time Cook even said something to the effect of ‘keep using separate IDs for now, it will be fixed in the future’ (a reply to customer email I believe). Well, it’s been about 10 gd years since then, and now it’s not just iTunes that is separate from my iCloud, but music (and all my saved preferences), apps, and podcasts. 

    Yet Apple decided to keep making the problem worse instead of fix it. After this much time, it almost shows a degree of distain Apple must have for its customers.

  • Apple's Cook receives first time-based stock grant since 2011, incentivizes tenure into 20...

    I’ve had my complaints about Apple, mostly about the regularly bumbled services, maybe a couple other minor disagreements here or there, but I’m proud to say I’ve never jumped on any of the anti-Tim bandwagons over the years. I can’t imagine anyone doing a better job then Tim in his ability to carry out the Apple legacy, and ethos, both in the products, and in fulfilling the financial potential of Apple’s ingenuity and aesthetic integrity. I can’t imagine anyone more loyal or dedicated to Apple, not even close. He’s earned every penny he makes from Apple 10 fold. I hope he buys some private islands, or whatever makes him happy. Thanks Tim!
