  • Safari still leads in mobile browser share, but Facebook's browser is on the rise

    Something must be missing from the explanation. 

    No no one uses facebooks browser as a browser. 

    But if you jump from a Facebook app to other linked articles, then there you go. It’s all in the app usage - or in safari if you log in that way. 

    A bit misleading on its face. 

    Thanks TechCrunch for your lame way of rewriting terms. 

    A DED article explaining the reality of the situation is probably forthcoming.

  • macOS Mojave will drop support for some older Macs released before 2012

    Whoa!

    obsoleting Macs that are only 3 years old? 

    Though im not personally affected by that, it’s wrong. Very wrong. 

    I dig Mojave. Love how they are making it more compatible with iOS without merging the two, etc. 

    but... computers 6 years old and newer need to be able to upgrade.  

    Apple itself defines the timeframe of an obsolete computer and they aren’t even following their own protocol here.

    i guess this is the Mac version of the iPhone 6/ios11 “batterygate.” 

    It will likely help nee macs to be purchased. But it’s wrong. And that’s coming from a long time Apple evangelist.

  • Apple and Samsung rest cases patent damages trial, jury to decide on Monday

    Samsung is so clueless. They admit they stole but then they want to set the terms of restitution. It doesn’t work that way. 

    Then they try to set a price on “only the infringing components and not the total smartphone.”

    thats the whole point - that those complete smartphones wouldn’t have sold like that had they not infringed. So yes, the whole cost is included. 

    Samsung had stuff like the Instinct, etc before they blatantly ripped off apple. And the rip-off is what gave them footing in the market so it could be argued Samsung owes Apple far more than Apple is asking.

  • Russia demands Apple pull Telegram for iPhone from App Store

    Time to download Telegram. If Putin is against it, it must be good.
    Unless he is using reverse psychology because he really wants you to use it...


    Russia is an entire culture of software development and legit hacking. 

    Russians will be jailbreeaking and using this. Put in knows that. He fostered that culture.

  • Apple's Joswiak says iOS gaming catching up to modern consoles

    Note to Apple... stop kidding yourselves.

    iOS gaming is NOWHERE NEAR modern console gaming.

    If you want to get real about gaming, then please do it. Make an official controller for the iPad and make it better than the Nintendo Switch. 

    Looking at the Fortnite pic in the headline... it looks stupid. The graphics are an ugly mess. 

    I have a PS4 and and Xbox One and both curb stomp iOS gaming to death. 

    I tried getting into gaming on my phone, but it's annoying. so then my iPad Pro. Again annoying.

    for involved games, you do need a real controller. Not just a touch screen.

    I am a huge Apple fan over pretty much any other company, but Joswiac sounds out of touch here and that concerns me.

    You know what would be awesome? An Apple TV tier that is as powerful at gaming as an Xbox One X.

    That would be amazing.

    but no... Apple will continue to halfway dance with gaming and then pat themselves on the back with make-believe statements. 

    iOS gaming is nothing more than casual fodder. The real games that have been ported can look decent, but they are annoying to actually play.

    I was impressed that Injustice for example looked about as good as a good Wii U game, but then I played it... No bueno. 

    dumbed down control schemes or putting a controller on the screen is just pure lame.
