  • Twitter loses half its ad revenue, still weighed down by debt

    So according to the comments, it was a sinking ship destined to doom in a couple weeks, that it won’t have any staff to run it, to now, that it will sink eventually? So if it doesn’t, then it will be the success of the new CEO?
    Give me a break. He does and says stupid shit from time to time - true, but he never loses. The platform is a much more fun place to be right now and I bet you my iPad that it won’t fail 😉

  • If you're a Tesla owner, employees might be sharing your camera recordings

    mygigmygig
    To be fair, the car clearly asks you, if you are willing to shrare clips with Tesla. It would be more of a story, if those clips include people who choose not to share clips.

  • Edward Snowden calls Apple CSAM plans 'disaster-in-the-making'

    mygigmygig
    I have huge respect for Snowden and what he did, but as of the last few years he just seems like a attention wh***. Going by that logic, Apple is just an update away from introducing backdoors and selling out data!

  • Ill-informed YouTuber bemoans Apple repair policies after breaking iMac Pro

    They wanted a screen replacement and in my opinion, they should be able to get that done by Apple, no matter how much they charge. I know they don't have do to it, because it's in their terms of service, but it shouldn't be, it's not the right thing to do. This Apple defense you wrote up, is pointless in my opinion. Always had Appleinsider in high regards, but how you tried to discredit them was not OK, lost quite a bit of points by me.
    Why is explaining how the service model works and the facts that make this repair not worth it to “not OK”?
    - "The video starts by showing one employee of the YouTube channel appearing to mount the display while the iMac Pro is vertical" (It was clearly reenacted, so they maybe did work on it like that, maybe they didn't)
    - "Yeah, the YouTubers had an "accident" as they said. But, it appears that they were more interested in generating revenue and having a laugh, rather than portraying any part of the repair process accurately." (They presented what happened to them)
    - "The Apple store likely punted based on Linus Tech Tips bringing in what was essentially a box of parts, plus the clear damage caused by the disassembly and failure of reassembly." (you don't know in what condition the iMac was brought in) 
    - "This is in no way a cost-effective repair -- which the video creators were likely fully aware of before they made their video about the process." (been watching their videos for quite some time, they never pulled anything like this before, not saying they didn't do it this time, just that they didn't do it before)
    - "    while explaining how internal combustion works to a rapt YouTube audience." (do I need to add anything here?)

    That's what I meant..
