So you could say, scummy ad company attempts to hawk TUAW. 

Brilliant. Bravo, sir.

Why do you want less competition in the EU? 

Because it will prove the lie that somehow Apple is the one being anticompetitive. In reality it's the EU shooting themselves in the foot and then blaming Apple.

I have had it give me a false alarm when I am playing volleyball, sometimes I hit the ball hard enough to trigger it.

On the other hand, it helped save my life when my watch detected I’d crashed on my motorcycle and was unconscious. I’ll never be without it!

Use this feature, as long as you are near a charger. Turn it off when you'll be away from power for an extended time. Use the 80% setting - it's better. My 15 Pro has had it turned on since day one back in September 2023 and still has 100% battery health with nearly 250 cycles.

I'm far from an early adopter but I have 2 of the 3 covered, and barely use my iPads for anything so I'd never need AI features on them. Glad we decided to switch from the base/mini iPhone 13s to the 15 Pro/Max last year. Still a GAI skeptic but it seems like Apple has their focus on bringing us whatever benefits we can get from LLMs without most or all of the significant issues, be they privacy, copyright infringement, political bias, incorrect information and hallucinations, etc. We'll see in the Fall how well they've done!
