  • Apple is working on a 'lifelike' robot lamp, and it's just as cute as you'd expect

    I think I'm experiencing a failure of imagination because I can't figure out why I would want or need a robot that roams around on my physical desktop or tabletop. 

    But I'm happy to be enlightened if anyone has ideas... 
    that is exactly what Apple wants. Tech demos or drawings that are public before the product need to be as far from the product as possible

    Since the 90s pornography has been so readily available to anyone with a web browser and an internet connection that even Playboy magazine couldn’t compete.
    Why do you need an app then?
    you have ready access to the web on the device.

    Great news for the Swift community.
    Apple says that open-sourcing Swift Build will encourage participation from the corporate sector, academia, and other open-source projects.
    Swift's popularity should take off like a rocket for the awesome programming language that it is.

    It should help accelerate the embedded swift usage that has been experimented with in the last couple of years..

    not on X and will never go back, anyone who associates with the raciest moron that is the OrangeBobaFett (sorry BF) won’t see a penny or a glance from me…
    Based on your comments I must assume you are of those “tolerant” liberals.  Freedom of speech means you have the freedom to be offended,deal with it since it’s in the US Constitution.  
    You have the right to say what ever you like to whoever is in earshot. But once you use an amplifier like these forums other rules come in to play and you voluntarily accepted them.

    I thought Apple Insider was asking its posters to refrain from political commentary. Then comes this hit piece, ostensibly regarding Apple considering advertising on X, and quickly launching into political diatribe. Come on, you can do better.
    It's the truth. If there's anything here that is incorrect, please feel free to email us and let us know. X is a controversial platform and Musk is a controversial figure. Apple considering bringing back advertising to the platform is heavily dependent on what's going on with the platform and the owner. It is all relevant and not a "hit piece" or "political diatribe."

    We don't shy away from the truth at AppleInsider. We hope our readers do the same.

    Of course by politically neutral you mean left-wing, when you say anti-transgender views if you wanted to say the truth you could have said controversial views on transgender issues, it's not anti-transgender whatsoever to say a man is a man and a woman's is a woman, it's an opinion so fact doesn't come into this whatsoever, I suppose my point is that as much as I completely disagree with Elon Musk, I could provide you with several examples where appleInsider  just gets it wrong politically, especially when it comes to cover the UK, that aside you guys do great work and I try to ignore the unconscious bias that you guys clearly have
    Opinions based on things that can be shown to untrue are still untrue if facts don’t come in to it and still demonstrate the ignorance of the opinion holder.  But hey that is just my opinion so it can’t be untrue right?
