  • Apple's iOS 13 beta 3 FaceTime gaze magic is triumph of tech evolution

    I’ll leave it to DED to write thousands of words praising an unannounced feature that may or may not see the final release as an Android killer. 

    Now time to re-read his piece about street view being creepy and flyover being the next big thing. That one is always good for laughs.

  • Editorial: Siri is greatly improved in iPadOS and iOS 13, but we still need more

    I can’t wait for DED to write a rebuttal arguing that Siri is already perfect, just like the butterfly keyboards. 

    Seriously though, you can break Siri just by saying “turn the lights off... in two minutes”. She’s an idiot.

  • Editorial: Reporting about the MacBook Pro is failing at a faster rate than the butterfly ...

    My MacBook is on its third keyboard and each time the Apple Store took nearly two weeks for the repair. I’ve never had a problem with any other Apple keyboard. Ever. I’ve owned dozens. 

    Me thinks if DED actually owned one of these lemons he’d STFU.

    The fact that this opinion piece exists means that the fanboy base is worried. 

    They should be.
    Nonsense.

    The only time we would be worry when Apple stop trying.
    Ummm.. in case you missed it, Apple has given up all hope of growing its hardware businesses and has instead moved into the realm of me too offerings such as News+ (exact same thing as Texture but now Apple only), credit cards, and internet streaming. They also cancelled AirPower after it went into production, along with all their excellent (if pricey) wireless products. Not trying on the hardware front it a big deal for Apple. 

    Now let me ask a question- who here is planning on tuning in every day for a morning lecture on gender issues from Jennifer Aniston? The far left makes TV so bad even other far left people can't watch it (e.g. Disney Star Wars) although they still lecture other people that they ought to be watching it.

  • Healthcare tech firm Epic Systems says it won't consider any Apple buyout offer

    Unfortunately, i use epic on a daily basis. It is horrible. As a radiation oncologist, my biggest challenge on a daily basis now seems to be keeping epic satisfied. As much as i would love Apple to haul over epic to something a normal person could understand and actually would like to use, I cannot blame anybody for not wanting to buy epic. 
    Same here. Unfortunately, the CEO of Epic seems to be tone-deaf here. The lack of outrage she heard after Cramer's suggestion doesn't mean "Epic is great and everyone trusts us not to sell out to the big, bad companies", but rather "that would be awesome, too bad it won't happen."
