  • Epic vs. Apple lurches on, this time about antisteering compliance

    That’s too bad for Epic. They just don’t seem to understand that Apple hosting your app and providing access to iPhone customers deserves a commission. As literally every store ever does. If you don’t like the commission, then you can go somewhere else.  It you don’t get to run someone else’s business and change the rate just because you don’t like it.

    No Fortnite on iDevices for years now. Let's see who has been winning...

    Epic Games - NOPE! Lost millions (billions?) in potential revenue from sales.
    Apple - NOPE! Lost millions (billions?) in potential revenue from sales.
    Everyone - NOPE! Don't get to play Fortnite on our iDevices.

    Congratulations! It's been a lose/lose/lose situation for everyone!
    Yep. Epic should have honored their contract and stopped trying to turn Apple’s business into their own playground.

  • The long nightmare may be over -- iPad could finally get a Calculator app

    “The long nightmare…” ha! Great opener. 

    I don’t know if it’s actually that bad, but I’ve always thought it was annoying that iPad never had one and had to go the third party route. 

    Would be great to see parity with the iPhone and Mac in this simple small way.

  • Apple Silicon might get used for AI chips in server farms

    9secondkox29secondkox2
    Hope not. Apple should go all-in with on-device. 

    Even if it takes longer, that’s fine. 

    About as long as it takes to run a photoshop action. 

    No problem.

    I posted this elsewhere but I'll do it again here since it is relevant. 

    I am seem to be one of the few people that got a FineWoven case that isn't a problem. Got it with the phone in September and it seems to be gong strong. 
    Ditto. No problems with mine either. As lovely as leather? No. But we’ve got to reduce the impact bovine agriculture has on the planet in every way possible. Either that, or reduce human population by about half. Good luck with that. Perhaps use human leather? /shudder/
    As long as there is beef, there is leather. Beef isn’t going anywhere, so better to utilize what would otherwise go to waste. It’s more efficient use of resources, more respectful to the sacrifice of the animal, and results in better quality products.
