    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?

    Given most of the ads they pay for on X will be served up to bots what could the ROI possibly be.

    Still, I guess it shows there has been enough market fragmentation that any high value customers have left X. To consider going back to a culture context that has gotten more aggressive and insular.

    The funny thing is, when I was a kid in the 60s and 70s here in Denmark, we admired the United States and now we just shake our heads in amazement at how a country can fall so far back into ignorance and stupidity. :'(
    That is because most of we saw was Californication as the red hot chilli peppers noted on there album of the same name.  Add a dash of New York, all we ever knew of the south was Dukes of Hazard which should have been taken as a warning.

    Outside of USA all that comes up is the “gulf of America outfitters” on coast guard road.

  • Apple Vision Pro review one year later: time to exit the preview

    I think the big part of the problem is the same the Mac had early days as well
    journalist who write about tech as still journalists and work with words.
    this is a computing style for working with space. Working space gets very bad coverage historically. Pictures are a thousand word a space is a billion.

    If Apple want to push that side then highlight how people are using it in those fields. Real stories not just grabs of actor architects at stand up desks.
