    What the video doesnt show is that this feature only exists within iCloud drive and not google drive or Dropbox. Using the other 2 services, you are presented a different interface where it is impossible to do.
    This is because the Dropbox and google drive, and also one drive and box are not available for iOS11 yet, I'm sure they are ready (except maybe Gdrive) maybe they are available in testflight for some lucky beta testers.

    Apple should volunteer to pay for a few new judges, and perhaps provide some nice technology to make them more efficient.  That would be a win-win, right?
    Why? There's absolutely no reason to accelerate the timeline on this fraudulent case brought against Apple. The Irish can continue to give the EU the bird and delay, delay, delay.
    I suggest that everyone reread the article. It has nothing to do with the EU and the tax problems, it is about the installation of the new data centre and a few locals who are trying to oppose the installation.

    This ought to highlight to people why Apple has stayed with AMD GPUs for so long.   AMD is simply a better choice for Apples initiatives in AR and ML.   

    Hopefully we will see a Mac Mini replacement with these cards.  Either that or a Mac Pro more focused on the desktop workstation market.  
    Given the price of the PCI-E version, I don't see a mini replacement with this card anytime soon.
    A kaby lake upgrade to the mini would be quite major under the circumstances.

  • Apple cuts 2TB iCloud plan to $9.99, Family Sharing access expands in iOS 11 & High Sierra...

    Incredible, Apple cuts the price of something by 50% and people come to complain about price gouging and upsell.

    First of all do not compare prices. iPhone 5SE is more compact device that fits normal shirt without sticking out and looking bad - a normal person does not carry communication device in palm of hand like a mobile device hobbyst.
    Secondly, iPhone 5SE can use proper headphones including those high quality and it does not require wireless Bluetooth based devices that usually work so-so and also are provided by lower quality manufacturers (yes- Apple and beats do not qualify for term "high quality" if you tried high end with iPhone and you compared sound).
    Doesn't the phone come with an adapter so it can use normal headphones?
    Stop confusing the discussion with facts. ;-)
