  • Apple TV+ gains UK subscribers as Netflix, Disney+ dip

    Apple still has a low price for their service unlike everyone else.  Doesn't charge more to get a 4K version.  May not have a library of content Netflix does, but it is growing and Apple has a lot of great series to watch.  I'm enjoying SILO currently.   New episode should pop out today, I can't wait!    These days I mostly watch YouTube and I pay the $11 a month to not have commercials.  I just don't watch Netflix much these days.  The last time they jacked up their prices, I dropped the highest 4K service back down to 1080P.  I can't even tell the difference.  I only keep the service for my Dad who lives with me at my house, retired.  He does use the service.  He is home most of the time watching TV, otherwise, I may have dropped Netflix by now.  I did enjoy the Wednesday series.  Binged watched that.  I haven't watched anything from Netflix since then.  

    Limited time to watch TV.  Other things to do.  There is just way too much content on TV these days.  No one can watch it all.  I have Amazon Prime also, mainly for Delivery, I rarely watch any Video Streaming from them.  They come in last for me.   There is a few things I'd like to watch on it, but other shows on the other services rate higher.

    Stars Brie Larson as a woman oppressed by the 'patriarchy'. Like even other 'character' she has ever played. Say no more. Can't wait to not see it!
    I was going to say something similar.   No way will I be watching this garbage.  I am however enjoying SILO.

  • Amazon gets slap on the wrist over privacy violations with Ring cameras

    I wouldn't buy any RING product.  They are police spying devices!!!!  Since Amazon owns RING, is Amazon any better with its other products?  That is up to you to decide.  I don't use Android phones since that is Google's spying device.  All the better to target ads to you and who knows what else.

  • Critical security flaw is exposing older Wemo Smart Plugs to hackers

    So WEMO just expects people to upgrade smart devices every couple of years?  As they just stop all support?    Well, I guess I was ahead of the curve and pulled all my WEMO smart plugs.  I moved over to Meross.  I have 5 WEMO plugs just sitting around not being used.  I do know who to avoid.

  • Father of modern VR says that Apple's headset is 'so good'

    This is still a RUMOR.  Don't believe anything until Apple announces it. If Apple is going to try and sell it at $3K, it's going to be a failure.   Yes, some people will pay for that, but most won't.  If you don't have enough people buying it, it's going to fail.  You need high enough numbers for developers to make games for it.  Few games to no games, bye, bye!!!  I think it'll have a hard time selling at $500.  First gen product is another wait and see also for many.
