Medical teams literally across the globe are all saying the same thing: Apple Vision Pro is a medical game changer.

The last paragraph says very clearly it’s being used more: “ Despite being used for surgeries previously in the UK, and now Brazil,”. Surgeries plural in the UK.

"Why is it a bad thing," Ternus?  Because you aren't considering the long term implications of what happens when a device gets so old Apple stops making parts for it.  And while one can argue that for an iPhone, it matters less than a Mac, the fact remains that your are effectively killing off old devices that cannot get official parts anymore after a certain number of years. 

That “certain number of years” you refer to is SEVEN. Seven years after a given model is discontinued, Apple no longer makes parts for it.

That’s typically a repairable lifespan of a decade. Longer, for common third-party parts like screens.

Apple is not “killing off devices.” If you are using a decade-old iPhone, you have waaaaaay bigger issues than being able to get parts.

I’m curious, does Google not charge a 30% commission as well? Why is it only Apple in the crosshairs?

Portal, Portal 2, Peggle, Peggle Nights, Bioshock Infinite.  The only reason I still have an old machine working is to play these games. The fact the developers won't update the games is already a pain, now Steam is killing support on their end also?

These aren't no name games either.

You can't even buy an updated version anywhere for any of these games.  They are literally killing them unless you have a old machine around dedicated to just these.
