It would be interesting for Apple to lower the price of Apple Music to inflict some pain on Spotify. Some peoples decisions are based entirely on price so I would think they would switch. I am curios since software cannot patented (I think) what is keeping Apple from making a Spotify like skin for Apple Music. 

AI in ads is old hat. We have had targeted ads for years so nothing new here. Every company has to bring those two words into everything they do to stay relevant.

All these articles about using old Time Machines or Airports are horrible advice.  These devices were officially EoL'ed years ago, and hadn't received much attention for years before that.  They've got to be riddled with unpatched security issues.

There are no security issues if you do the following: 
1. Use Airport Utility to connect to the Time Capsule.
2. Under Network change Router Mode to Off (Bridge Mode).
3. Optionally under Internet change the Connect Using to DHCP. If you know what you are doing you can optionally selection Static and enter the IP Address you want to use. It is not a necessary step and I doubt has any advantages at all.
turning of the routing functions on the Time Capsule effectively makes it a network attached storage. For stationary devices (desktops) I recommend an external hard drive.
4. Under Wireless change Network Mode to Off. 

You now have a Time Capsule without any visibility other than your network.

How could the EU possibly be looking out for its residents if there is a way to allow developers to ask for and get more personal data from users. Only someone not understanding the consequences would grant this position and it is one that should not even be possible to do.

It’s a smart move. They were likely designing just another multi-passenger car with 6 seats, which everybody else is competing with and losing money on. 

Instead, design and build a single-passenger EV car that self-charges with a solar roof, too. The potential market is HUGE, with so many millions of single adults (some with pets), whether young adults or retired seniors, who cannot justify or afford a regular new EV car. They don’t have safe charging places, night or day. They don’t have time to wait safely in urban or remote charging stations. But a solar charging roof on a 1-passenger size car is doable, and affordable. Just need a seat, stowaway storage, battery, motor, AC, airbags and wheels.

It’d be the next Model T or iphone moment. I’ve told this to Tim Cook, as well as Elon, and Ford CEO. It’s the only way to compete with cheaper Chinese EVs. 

Tesla does not lose money on its EV's.
