Apple sued over spellcheck functions on Mac, iPhone & iPad
MacPro, add "Chasm" to your list.MacPro said:
Thank you Cahms.chasm said:
I’m an excellent speller, but I’m not here to brag: I want to pass on a tip to help you avoid “bad” spellcheckers and save a lot of time.seanismorris said:I don’t know about the strength of the case, but Apple’s “spellcheck” is crap.
Make a list of the words you routinely misspell. For me, one of them was “obsolesecence.” Once you see the correct spelling, strike through the word on your list and put in the correct spelling. Practice writing it a few times — for me, the key was remembering that the middle part was SOLE like the bottom of a shoe (or the fish). This will train your brain towards the correct spelling.
Hope that helps!

This Apple Watch charger is better than Apple's in every way
I'm still waiting for an Anker PowerCore battery with inbuilt Chi charger for the Apple Watch. Then I can charge the phone and watch from one battery without bringing a separate charging puck cable. -

Apple coming to Hong Kong's Octopus transit card with iOS 13
FYI: support for FeliCa starts with iPhone 8. Gives me another reason to upgrade from my 6s.This is great news, as more countries' transit systems adopt Apple Pay. Waiting for Taiwan's MRT to adopt it next!

Facebook VP Nick Clegg attacks Apple over privacy criticism

They did try giving away free internetracerhomie3 said:Oh please Facebook. Do you give your users free devices? A lot of poorer people in the 3rd world don’t have access to smartphones. Only dumb phones. Since you say Facebook is for ‘everybody’ put your money where your mouth is & give the next 1 Billion people in 3rd world free phones & internet. You can even get iPhone 4, 4S & 5 ($47,$60 & $100) in India,Pakistan ,Bangladesh & Nepal. So don’t put crap up about all Apple products being expensive.
