Amazingly defensive comments here. Utterly weird. Almost a parody of what people think Apple users act like. 

It's not like apple hasn't had screen issues before, and I have experienced that myself with a screen that just went dead. Apple fixed it out of warranty because it was their fault. 

Isn't this a site for consumers? Apple isn't a political party, or a football team you always root for. Its a company that produces electronic devices and sometimes, because manufacturing is sometimes not perfect, things can go wrong. As consumers we should hope that Apple makes amends and fixes any issues as soon as possible. What I see here is sheepish fanboyism. 

And before people who have been here a lot less time than I have start on he accusations of trolling, I have been here from 2003. I am posting on an M1 device, getting another one next week, and if I swivel around I can see my old intel MacBook Pro from 2018. There's about $5k worth of Apple devices in this room alone, with a HomePod and iPhone and AppleTV as well and more about the house. And I've been here since 2003, when the number of Mac Users in my country could fit into a hotel room,. Since my first Mac I have spent tens of thousands on Apple products. 

But sometimes things go wrong, and sometimes Apple denies it.  Grow up and accept that.

I've been bullish on an Apple Car from the beginning. But I'm beginning to think that this is now just another sign of an overall lack of vision and continuous lack of leadership overseeing whatever vision there was to begin with. It seems that children have been conceived, born, raised, and graduated from college in the time that Apple has been working on the Car, all without any evidence of an actual ship year--or even decade.

Meanwhile...Lucid has rolling stock and production schedules in about half the time. Get a professional to run the "division", stop the endless invention and re-invention and concept tinkering and set up a schedule. This isn't Jonny Ive-ville anymore. Real companies ship.

Apple is such a failure, isn’t it. How it stays in business is a mystery, especially with Tim Apple at the helm.

"Pelosi pushed back on Cook's ask, the report says, pressing him to name specific policy objections on the proposed material." As I've said before, the majority of members of Congress know nothing about tech and little about how businesses actually operate. Tim should have pushed back on Pelosi and asked her whether she even understands what the bill does. Pelosi, like every member of Congress, uses aides and somewhat technical experts to give them enough information information to not sound stupid. Problem is, if you don't understand technology at all you don't really know what you're saying.

That’s what you get Apple for supporting these old guards….who knows nothing but to in rich themselves 

Last time I checked, it was "we the people" that put Pelosi and others like her in office, not Apple.  It's our fault she's there.

That being said, I did not vote for her.  She needs to be gone.  She became irrelevant ages ago.
