  • Apple considers micro lens technology to make iPhone 16 screens brighter

    And why would that be a problem?
    If you ask me, the viewing angles should be no more than a few degrees, because it's me who needs to see the display not the one standing next to or in front of me...

    How can Foxconn do that without Xi Jinping’s and the CCP’s permission?
    Because Foxconn is a Taiwanese company. AI screwed up. 
    Last I checked, Taiwan was a province in China, so every single Taiwanese company is also Chinese.
    Just like Apple is both a Californian and a US company.
    Not true. Do you get it from ChatGPT? The fact is due to a civil war, Taiwan was separated from mainland China since 1949. Independently governed. 
    I'll let your rudeness slide this time.
    Taiwan was never separated from China, it was just a place where the losing party was allowed to settle, having some autonomy but inside the Chinese state.

You are saying that you would rather live in a dictatorship instead of living in a place where even the stupidest peoples are allowed (I'm not saying encouraged, I just say protected) to speak freely?
    Here's the thing: racists aren't satisfied with simply stating a personal opinion that they're superior. Historically racists are always going to try and force the people that they think are inferior into some type of oppressive system. It's not like Musk doesn't know this coming from South Africa. Apartheid? That wasn't just black people and white people having a difference of personal opinion. 
    racism - free speech; what's the connection?
    That dude was saying he would rather live and interact in a non-free speech environment than interact with liars and I am trying to understand the level of imbecility one must be having in order to say such a blatant idiocy.

    If more Apple execs leave Twitter, I'm leaving, too. The only reason I've been on there since 2011, other than to keep up to date with various Apple execs, was to stay on top of Apple tech content and writers, a handful of tech journalists and news sites and a few various other accounts. There was usually no other useful content on there. Most of my personal friends left many, many years ago LOL I'm talking if you look at their account, their last post was in 2013!! They always ask why I'm still on there. It was bearable, but things have certainly taken a turn for the worse since Elon's takeover.
    Yeah, the freedom of speech is deafening... Who needs a platform that respects the right of the people to express their opinions?!
    I've heard there is a large migration on Facebook, because everybody knows it protects the users rights.
