  • Hollywood insiders like Apple TV+ design, but have issues with content curation

    Amazon is obviously trying to expand the number of subscriptions it supports via Prime. It is getting hard to find content amongst all the promotion of items that can only be watched through an additional subscription.
    I agree. Plus, they own Freevee and MGM+, which are even more poorly designed than Prime.

  • iOS 17 could introduce updated Control Center, says leaker

    I know it might be minor, but I really wish they would give us the ability to rearrange Control Center icons from within Control Center itself.

  • Nintendo won't be making any more 'Super Mario' games for iPhone

    The problem is that Nintendo dilutes the Mario games down to trivial games on mobile phones.   Give me a full Mario Kart and I’m there.  Even though I’ve paid for Mario Kart 8 on Wii U and on Switch.  Give me the real deal and I would pay real money.  

    Nintendo — it’s your own fault.   Not that your games on iPhone were bad sellers.   I bet 95% of game makers for phones would die for your sales numbers.  But you dilute the games down to simplistic trivial games and you get trivial results.  
    I agree with what you’re saying, but I really think that Nintendo doesn’t care. They released those games on iOS very reluctantly at first. They weren’t interested in developing any of their franchises for competitors devices. But the WiiU and early Switch years were pretty lean for them, so they relented out of necessity. Now with the Switch becoming the second best selling console of all time and rumors for the Switch 2 heating up, Nintendo is starting to bring everything back home. And I respect the hell out of them for it. That’s my 2¢ at least.

  • Lock Socket Review: Effective charger loss prevention

    Sorry, but that kludge won’t work with modern Decora style receptacles. 
    Outlets with center screws only belong in the back of closets or in the basement or garage. ߘ즬t;br>
    For my Apple chargers I picked up Blockhead sideways charging plugs from tenonedesign.

    They replace the folding plug on the charger and it sits flat against the wall, not sticking out, ready to fall out.
    It’s MUCH better!

    Thanks for the link. I never even knew these things existed…but they look brilliant, so I picked up a 2-pack.

  • Apple Original 'Napoleon' will see theatrical release in November

    An American playing Napoleon and a Brit playing Josephine? I wonder what the French have to say about that.
