US and China temporarily lower tariffs to start trade negotiations
Um…Stabitha_Christie said:
The only way you can think this is a "deal" is if you didn't actually knew what the tariff rates were prior to the trade war. And since Cult member aren't exactly known for being informed, we can safely assume you have no clue where we were at trade wise prior to the trade war. I'll catch you up, Trump completely capitulated to China and U.S. companies and customers are stuck paying the bill. Our tariffs on China are higher and Chinese tariffs the didn't exist four months ago are still there. We literally got nothing but higher prices, and y'all think we won something. This is almost as embarrassing as when you made up a story about getting a pay raise to make a point about income tax only to announce the the world that you don't understand the U.S. tax code or how a progressive tax works.9secondkox2 said:Great first step.Look forward to seeing what’s to come.The fact that the usa gets 30% out of this whole China only gets 10% is quite the “art of the deal.”
you could kind of read the Chinese ministers faces exiting the negotiations thst it was something like this.People forget how powerful the United States really is.
will be interesting if progress is made on rare earth.Hopefully this means apple can breathe easier while continuing to diversify the supply chain and get serious about efforts at home.
let’s take last year.We charged Chinese exports 20%. Some tarriffs were 34%.China charged us 30%. Some items had a 67% tarriff.Now, we gain 10% and they lose 20% from the lowest set point.The USA loses only 4% from the highest and China loses 57%. That’s a fantastic deal for America. No matter if you are rooting for the usa or for China.It’s not just looking at the recent crazy hikes.It’s a great deal for the usa.And it sets the tone for a more even snd fair deal to come.The president talked with Tim Cook this morning.

Apple's homeOS platform is coming: All the rumors, and what you need to know
I’ve dreamed of this for years. So long as there is a way to ensure any data about my home doesn’t get stored on anyone’s servers, I’m in.

Apple Glass will get custom Apple Silicon tailored for low power & camera control
That solves a lot of issues while also not cannibslizing the iPhone.surgefilter said:Basic common sense to let the ultra powerful iPhones do all the heavy-lifting and Bluetooth them to the glasses. That way the frames can be ultra slim, metal or like regular glasses instead of all of the current manufacturers going down the JOE 90 route.

Apple working on M6 & M7 chips alongside new AI server processor
Ok. You got me. It may not be “so much better” depending on the choices they mske. But it’s expected to be the first apple silicon on tsmcs 2nm process, enabling a greater amount of performance per watt and run cooler. Or it could enable Apple to pack in a ton more transistors. It’s only a 1 nm difference, but even that has potential to mske a substantial difference. Then again, they could just do a die shrink with minimal design chsnges. However, at the expense of the new process, that is not likely.m4m40 said:
What’s expected from M6? Why is it going to be so much better?9secondkox2 said:No need for a MacBook Pro redesign. It’s pretty much perfect in its most recent form.Hopefully m5 cranks things up. But the real story with be with m6.
