  • When you report bugs on iOS, some content may be used for AI training

    The developer who spotted this addition criticized Apple for not including an opt-out option, saying that the only way users could opt out was by not filing a bug report at all.
    If this is true it would adversely impact bug reporting. A lot of us are working very hard to not let our data be used for AI training. Now we may be in possession of an important bug report but have to violate our principles if we want to report it. Many may decide not to.  If this is true, it would be a very stupid move on Apple’s part.
    Again, what’s the issue? What “principles”? You kinda sound like those vegans who just like to hear themselves talk and make themselves sound self-important.

    I fail to see an issue here. What IS the issue, exactly?

  • iPadOS 19 rumored to get more Mac-like in productivity push

    Hope springs eternal for these changes but Apple has long been resistant. There was similar hope for iPad OS 18, especially after the debut of the all-new Pro iPad models, but that hope died at WWDC. We'll see this year. If Apple wanted to give the iPad Pros a real sales boost, make them capable of booting into either iPad OS or Mac OS at the user's discretion, which Apple Silicon can do. In iPad OS, it works as usual. In Mac OS, you lose touchscreen capability and it operates just like a Mac, requiring the use of Magic Keyboard with the built-in trackpad. Apple could do this today. No merging of 2 very different OSes required, no need to figure out how to bring touch to the Mac, no blah, blah, blah whatsoever. Boot into whichever OS makes the most sense for your needs at the moment. Macs have been able to boot into Windows for how long? 
    Macs could use BootCamp only on the Intel chips, so 2006-2020.

  • Apple Watch to get small hardware changes, big software updates

    swat671swat671
    I am on an AW 8 because there’s not enough of a change in hardware yet. Plus, with this silly lawsuit over the pulse oximeter, the new watches can’t tell me my blood oxygen levels, so I’d actually lose that ability. I know I’ve read about the ability to read blood sugar, which is great if you have say diabetes. But what I’m really interested in is blood pressure. That would be very useful and helpful for me. It would be good to have more intelligence on the watch itself so it could process more things internally, but having the phone do it instead works for now.
