Microsoft poised to overtake Apple as most valuable company
Out of around 10 big cloud providers, Azure is the second biggest, and it's not even close. The market for cloud services isn't like the market for mobile operating systems -- there are going to be lots of winners. And so far, Azure is definitely one of them.hmurchison said:I can't point to much of what Microsoft is doing that another company isn't doing as well.
Azure hasn't killed AWS.

If you want blue iMessage bubbles that much, buy an iPhone

Senator Warren wades into Apple's Beeper fight with irrelevant antitrust rhetoric
This would be a more compelling argument if Apple actually restricted iMessage to devices with a hardware certificate they provided. Which is totally technically feasible if they wanted. But they don't and they haven't. All you need to send and receive iMessages is Apple's messages app, which will run on many platforms, including macos running on generic thirdparty hardware. Which Apple doesn't authorize but also hasn't done anything to prevent. So to call excluding Android/Beeper from iMessage a security consideration feels very silly to me. Nevermind "privacy". No, this is completely about Apple wanting to keep their ecosystem exclusive.Doing so keeps the network secure, with Apple claiming the techniques "posed significant risks to user security and privacy."

Apple confirms that there is no Apple Silicon 27-inch iMac in the works
The death of target display mode, combined with Apple's choice to use high-end panels in all their displays, means there is no way a 27" imac makes sense at any plausible price point. A Mac Mini with external monitor just makes more sense.

France's iPhone 12 modem power testing was radically different than the standard
Just to recap, the "radically different" testing procedure in France is actually the exact same test, but measured at 0mm instead of the 5mm used everywhere else.
