Trump is too busy for his own tariff negotiations, so will dictate terms instead
charlesn said:While this certainly sounds like something Trump would do, what is the source for this story? This should be big news but I'm seeing nothing about it on CNBC, WSJ, Bloomberg or any other business news site.

Apple may be able to delay price increases, but not for long
aslam said:The top of the article says that prices would rise in the US and elsewhere. I’m struggling with rationalizing the “and elsewhere” part of it. I see how prices would have to rise for American consumers because tariffs would apply on products produced in China, but why would prices rise for those outside of the US?In theory, if you ship goods directly from China to say, Canada ... the US tariffs should not apply. But if they products arrive in the US and are THEN shipped to other countries, tariffs may apply.It's all pretty confusing. -

More French-language programming coming to Apple TV+ in EU countries
This isn't an Apple problem.My Apple TV shows me only English-language (and bilingual) programming. This is because in the Settings app for my Apple TV, under General -> Language and Region, I have set my Apple TV language to English, and my Region to US.
Perhaps you should check that if you haven't already. There are still a couple of shows on Apple TV+ that are bilingual, like Pachinko and Acapulco, but subtitles kick on when English is not spoken (most of the time).I can't comment on YouTube, but I will bet that there is a setting for your language in the app and on the service's homepage. Same with Google. That will limit but not entirely exclude the occasional bit of foreign language appearing in your media, but will make English the dominant language for the media you consume.OTOH, learning at least one additional language wouldn't kill you, and opens up more travel, culture, and general world experiences -- not to mention the roots of many, many English words.
Later this year, I'm hoping to get at least passably conversational in German, as I already am in French and Dutch, in hopes of visiting Germany for Oktoberfest.
