  • Apple's first foldable screen probably won't be on the iPhone

    omasouomasou
    What's the benefit to me?

    It will take up the same volume and weigh the same amount and I'll have to continually worry that the screen will fail.

    Thinking about this reminds me of void pixel days and having to have x amount before Apple would replace a MacBook screen.

  • Apple defends its controversial EU App Store plans

    The whining boils down to... darn...I cannot entice developer to my app store platform b/c there's nothing in it for them.

    or

    wow my app store is no longer worth making.

  • Apple Vision Pro followup could be 18 months away

    omasouomasou
    This is why I bought in now to try it out. Waiting for the next version is too far out.

  • So far, the early return rate on Apple Vision Pro is pretty low

    I'm going to take a WAG and say there were YouTuber purchases attempting to jump on the hype and then again w/"5 reasons I returned my AVP". /s

  • Unsurprisingly, Mark Zuckerberg believes Meta Quest 3 is the 'better product, period'

    He's doing what he has to do so I wouldn't expect anything less.

    The same applies to Tim Cook with, for example, the AI references. 

    Mark Zuckerberg is actively posting a defense of his product on social media. Tim Cook answered questions he was asked during an investor call. The two situations aren’t comparable. One is incredibly defensive and the other is run of the mill business.
    The two situations are exactly the same insofar as they are both pushing their solutions. 

    The vehicle they choose to do it with is irrelevant here. 
    On the contrary, making a scripted video defending your product and answering a reporter’s question are not the same.  The big difference is that Cook would not have mentioned AI if he weren’t asked about it and Zuckerberg made a point of making the video. 

    And Cook didn’t “push a solution”. He reiterated what we all knew. Apple  does work on AI, includes AI in their products and will continue to do so. That’s not a solution or even claiming their implementation was better. He simply stated the obvious. 

    Your attempt to compare the two is a weirdly desperate as Zuckerberg’s video. 
    If Cook didn't want to go into details he simply would have skirted the question. Something that happens on every call on future products. 

    This time he didn't and most of us know why. 

    He didn’t go into detail. 

    In the last call Cook intentionally kept using the word AI for the reporters that are too stupid to understand that "Apple does work on AI, includes AI in their products and will continue to do so."  as avon b7 mentioned.
