  • Hackers release 'unc0ver' 5.0 jailbreak tool that works on iOS 13.5

    acheron2018acheron2018
    It seems to me the only reason to jailbreak an iPhone is so you can run valid and useful apps that go against the political views of Apple.  

    For example I think Alex Jones is somewhere between scam artist and a psychopath.  But banning the info wars app was a political basses suppression of speech that no company should legally possess.

    If Apple banned the Chinese spyware iPhones would just be banned from China the same day.  No great moral dilemma about poor Apple’s right over their hardware and to control what people use it for.  

     No organization is beyond corruption. This is why the US Constitution is written as a THOU SHALT NOT document for government.  

    It is past time to level the playing field for living people vs corporations.  If you want sole control of the App Store you don’t get to ban people you don’t like.  Plan B is you don’t get to have the sole App Store.  Plan C is Tim is going to federal prison for a few decades.  

    One way or another the problem of discrimination against unpopular opinions would be fixed.

  • Entire 'iPhone 12' & 'iPhone 12 Pro' lineup specs detailed

    acheron2018acheron2018
    I think 6.7” is now officially ludicrous size.  

    Some days I’m not sure my 11 Pro Max wasn’t a mistake.  Especially given the very significant weight.  It actually gets heavy after holding it a long time. 

    And what ever happened to charging accessories from your iPhone.  Now that sounded like a cool idea.  Especially if it could charge the watch.

  • 'Scoob!' coming to iTunes on May 15, bypassing theaters and rental windows entirely

    acheron2018acheron2018
    It only makes sense. When the biggest best experience possible was 500i on a 25 inch screen, theaters made sense.  

    Now when even people well below middle class routinely have 4K on a 48 inch screen, going to a theater to
    * Pay $10+ per person.  For the “privilege” of
      * paying $30 for popcorn and a drink
      To then  
       * listen to people talk
       * and babies scream
       * with your feet sticking to the floor

    ALL WHILE YOU HAVE TO PEE from your $11 96oz drink...

    The math just doesn’t work anymore.

  • Germany changes stance on Apple-Google contact tracing project

    Translation they have figured out how to use this to use this data against their citizens.  

    The difference between corporations spying on you and governments doing it is that a corporation can’t (yet) send armed mercenaries to your door at 3:00 AM.

    This app sounds perfectly reasonable.  Just like all the worst ideas in history did when first proposed.
