  • Apple warns developers it will pull apps without recent updates from the App Store

    Ridiculous... I have an app that’s pretty much one of a kind and works really well. Hasn’t been updated in a while but why should it if it works?  

    Funny thing is, Apple always breaks a lot of things with their software updates .  iOS 15 has been a nightmare for HomeKit and especially Siri on the HomePod. That’s just one example. 

     No need to update for the sake of updating.  
    That last line is exactly what I say over and over again. I might be one of only a handful of people in the world that still uses Mojave but I like iTunes and would prefer to not give it up until I have to. I like my operating system the way it is and don’t need any changes.
    There are a lot of hackers that love this stance. Apple makes changes that benefits their customers first. I’m certain they address quite a few issues behind the scenes as to not alert hackers to flaws that they can exploit when stubborn users refuse to update. Old apps can serve as an back door for hackers under the right circumstances. 

    Instead of developers complaining because they don’t understand the reason for a change, they should know that Apple doesn’t believe in wasting their resources for no reason. If they invested time and resources into a change, there is a reason and likely a reason that it would not be productive to broadcast. 
    I’m not necessarily saying you are wrong, but I still receive security updates. Apple is still supporting Mojave, so I don’t think my decision is reckless.

  • European politicians on the cusp of requiring USB-C in all smartphones

    I’m not seeing where the article is stating that every phone has to have a USB-C port. To me, it just looks like the article is talking about USB-C chargers. So if that is the case, then wouldn’t Apple already be in compliance?

  • How we ended up with the 'Pregnant Man' Emoji

    twlatl said:
    There is nothing logical about a pregnant man. Nice attempt to write thousands of words to legitimize it, but a pregnant man emoji is as useful as a emoji of a fish riding a bicycle. Both are pure fantasy. 
    The reason that we have a Pregnant Man emoji is because some people are born with female reproductive parts but they identify as a man and consider themselves to be a man. You may think that those people shouldn't exist, but they do exist.

  • Hands on with the updated Kensington StudioDock for iPad Pro

    This looks really cool but I would never buy one. Looks like it’s turned into Desktop Mode. I think I would just prefer to buy a desktop in that case.
