  • Tim Cook hangs out with George Clooney as 'Wolfs' gets standing ovation

    Bummed that only on Apple plus. It’s the one streaming service I don’t pay for and find it hard to bite the bullet on another  subscription service. Costs getting out of control.

  • Apple Pay now available in Lowe's home improvement stores

    Lowes should. Given our local store pretty much got rid of all the cashiers except on the garden dept, they need to make it easier for us pay. I shop less any ways at lowes when they starting charging for bags. They also have less help than Home Depot. What I also thought funny, was 2 months ago I stopped by my local Lowes as the Home Depot not on my home. It seemed all the employees were over 65. Thats not a crack at the age given I’m 62, just seemed weird to me. Would not be surprised if in 2024 they announce closing all stores.

    I have a 2017 and the specs in this 2020 version is NOT enough for me to make a purchase.

    And how about fixing Safari.  I have seen more and more pop ups and ads over the years.  When I first purchased an iPad (guessing around 2012) it was a nice experience.  Clean would be the way I describe it.  I bought it for surfing the web, checking my email, watching podcasts and movies.  Now its too much like a laptop. The adblocker Apps are useless because most the websites wont let me continue unless I deactivate the adblocker! 
    This isn’t an iPad issue. It’s just that websites are getting much more aggressive in trying to shove ads down your throat because ads are what support their revenue stream. Yeah, I hate it too but we all knew the free ride wouldn’t last forever. 
    Dewme, I get what your saying. I dont have a Mac so i cant compare use of Safari other than on the iPad.  Just wish adblocker Apps were useful.
