  • What the iPhone 17 Pro and IPhone 17 Pro Max will look like

    9secondkox29secondkox2
    Always have been and always will be the biggest fan of Apple’s monochrome metal looks (silver, grey, etc). So I’ll probably be getting the natural titanium color in September since it’s finally time to retire the trusty iPhone 11 Pro Max. But the camera “bump” is getting quite strange. 

    Hopefully Apple can address this by iPhone 18 with a more integrated aesthetic.

    Negotiators from Japan/South Korea have said that the Trump administration trade representative's can’t provide any details on what they’re looking for in a deal so I’m not sure that the EU is all that close to any “deals” that have permanence. 
    If thats actually true, then let’s see how the EU like vague snd ambulatory goalposts. Not so fun when you’re on the other side, eh?

    Sounds good. Trade is the way to get the EU to stop hurting American companies. 

    No extra taxes on big tech is s good stsrt, but we need WAY more than that. 

    The baseline isn’t right now. It’s before the DMA.

  • Tim Cook won't get fired by Apple's board of directors -- and is likely to be chairman soo...

    9secondkox29secondkox2
    Cook heading the board is not a bad idea so long as he keeps an open mind regarding leadership ideals. He’s been an awesome ceo and a one in a million home run as the successor to Steve Jobs. No one could have done what he has done. 

    Apple is at its best and most focused when it’s focused on the mission of simply making the best computing devices on earth. 

    Don’t choose the leader you like the best for whatever personal, political, or such reason. Choose the ine thst will sable apple to innovate and continue making the best stuff on the planet. Do that, and Apple will continue to be the top in its industries as long as it exists.

    The design was too advanced for Intel chips and regular GPUs. Imagine a cylindrical Mac with an M series chip. Maybe they should release an "Anniversary Edition" with an M4 Max or M5 Pro or Max, or even an M series Ultra chip.
    If it’s any kind of Mac PRO it needs to have an Ultra at the very least. Hopefully they develop a more powerful chipset or a way to combine multiple Ultras to get the performance at the absolute pinnacle of computing again.
