  • Apple reportedly in discussions to buy sports car manufacturer McLaren

    Well if its true and it happens, then I hope they keep the name.

    Owning a McLaren sounds far better than owning an Apple Car.

  • Launch iPhone 7 purchasers predominantly upgraders, looking for 128 GB

    Yep that's me, 128 gig for the price of the 32? Hell yeah!


    but that was only for my 7plus because with the camera and processor and larger screen I intend to do different things with it than my 16 gig SE. Which is make calls, get texts, google stuff and get directions. 
    No need for 128 gigs for that. Especially at the previous price points.

    i think the SE and new 128 plus was a one-two punch for Apple. There was pent up demand for a capable small "work" phone on the SE, and a capable larger phone for extracaricular activities with a decent amount of storage at a fair price to do that.

  • Too soon? Apple's new iPhone 7 ruffles feathers with Lightning audio, Home button changes

    Again the echo-chambe wanted a narrative that was a fallacy plain and simple. 
    You want to use a regular jack? Fine. You want to use the one provided by Apple? Fine. You want Bluetooth? Fine. Everything is there. Some fools just live to complain and some in the tech blogger sector want to pretend they are important.

    last week moron in charge of The Verge Nily Patel (the moron who called it a crime against humanity) on this podcast AltWaltDelete actually said that Apple making a better product with their own chip inside the Airpods was a devious move. I mean how dare Apple make a  better product. And it was all about making money! My god how dare they!! That was his argument. That Apple on their own  making a better wireless experience was ...like it was a bad thing.

    And he even pondered out-loud that Apple should pass on this technical advancement to everyone else so as to lose their advantage. I mean this is coming from the mouth of a dude that keeps saying he is/was a lawyer. He would be laughed out of any court with such asinine opinions.
     No one has made a valid argument against this least of a all a buffoon such as Nily Patel.

    ...And that my friends is the "brain" running a major tech blog. That's how low the standards in tech "journalism are today.

  • Big shift: demand for dual-camera iPhone 7 Plus surges past standard iPhone 7

    All my previous phones have been  4" screens with 16 gig storage. Got the SE earlier this year with that configuration because I don't need a lot of storage for what I use the little one for. It's my constant companion.

    With this camera on the 7 plus, (and a nicer design and color) for the first time I went for the 7 plus with 128 gig of storage. I just think each phone size have their own use-case and with the 7 plus I expect to take more videos and pictures and with the added power of the processor do light editing right on it instead of sending it to my mac.
    I think people take way more photos than ever, and want the best camera with them at all times. And a SLR is not going to travel well with most people. As they say, the best camera is the one you have on you.

  • US Treasury guidance could stop Apple from recouping Irish taxes at home

    apple ][ said:
    Good. Either pay your effing taxes or reduce your tax burden by reinvesting in R&D.
    What are you, a communist or something?

    Apple pays what it owes. It is under no obligation to pay more than what's required under the law.

    Apple is not a charity, it is a for profit corporation.


    Yeah and...
    that doesn't change one damn thing. Pay what you owe instead of raising debt to pay dividends. Seriously fucked up morals and hopefully the justice dept comes and smacks some sense into them with some serious penalties. Like BAMM!
