  • iPhone 14 demand will be much higher than iPhone 13 in China, Kuo says

    I’m sick of hearing about how bad the notch is. Personally, I find that it is the easiest way to see that you have picked up the phone and orientated it upside down, 🤪

  • No, Apple Music isn't pushing Spotify out of the iPhone dock on purpose

    I Find that claim interesting, as I have never had Apple Music in the default position since day one when I bumped it From my first iPhone, series 3s. As my needs have changed I have moved various prime Apps onto the dock and none have ever jumped back and I even used only three spots for a while. I can’t be bothered trying it out, but it must be something to do with the current iOS and deleting and reinstalling music altogether from the phone. I’m not going to jinx myself by trying lol. Current 12pro max on the latest public beta

  • Compared: Apple Studio Display versus Porsche Design AOC Agon Pro monitor

    The Porche looks very like the 27inch Dell monitor that I had twenty years ago. Even the plug recess on the bottom edge could have come straight off the Dell. That was the worst feature I’ve ever had when you were changing cords for any reason. I had to place the screen into portrait position in order to see what I was doing. 

    For my usage and preference, resolution always trumped other features as it’s simple easier on the eyes. Particularly now I’m older. My upgrade path is now going to be Apple Studio monitor to connect my 13-inch MacBook Pro 2016, then when it’s dead, I’ll upgrade to the Mac Studio of the day. 

    I was waiting for the new 27-inch iMac to upgrade but of course that may never arrive.

  • Epic Games files to appeal ruling in Apple lawsuit

    I’ve really hit my limit with this case. Epic wants to make more money. Period. That is the plain and simple fact. They don’t care about monopolistic behavior—Apple and Epic don’t even move in the same spaces; at least not enough for a legal case of this size. Everything about Epic at this point, from this lawsuit down to their douche bag company name, even their mutant CEO’s face, is a major turnoff and I will absolutely no longer be buying their products. How about make better games, Epic? I feel badly for their developers who have to get dragged with this lawsuit. Such a waste. 
    Is this about Epic as a game company or is it more about Chinese interest v Apple. Many times in life the front facing servants get the blame for carrying out instructions of the shadow Govt? Just a question

  • After chiding Apple on privacy, Germany says it uses Pegasus spyware

    The world you imagine is one where a mask mandate could be met with "we don't currently have any masks deployed so cannot possibly meet this requirement".  Sorry fella, that doesn't fly.
    Unfortunately, we are moving into a reimagined Fascist world where the concept of the People demanding Govt establish Control is becoming very real. The cat is out of the bag for CSAM because Apple has already announced it has developed the code. Likewise, freedom of choice re COVID-19 is fast being eroded toward nonexistent Worldwide. What is next? IMHO we are well along the path towards global fascism and another “Dark Age”
