  • App Store changes look like a free ride to some developers

    What happens next!? Apple will charge for the developer API and tools (XCode) again and probably lot's of it in a monthly subscription model. Beginners can use Apple Playgrounds. Greedy Tim can't think in any other way.

  • Lighter than normal WWDC expected without significant Apple Intelligence upgrades

    When I first read that Apple executives wouldn’t be talking to John Gruber this year (https://daringfireball.net/linked/2025/05/29/the-talk-show-live-tickets-2025) I interpreted it as a snub. But now I wonder if the Apple executives are just going into hiding. 
    Anything else would have been completely surprising. Gruber has been an Apple positive news fanboy for years, now that even he starts to realize/report harsh critic on Apple, he lost the Apple Execs support. They'll only show up, if they don't risk being critized in public. In that Tim and Donald are quite similar.

    I have now fully come around to agreeing that It’s time for Tim Cook to go. 

    A lot of great things happened under his leadership, especially apple silicon in Macs, but the Apple car debacle and now the AI debacle are convincing me that Apple needs a “product guy” leading the firm again. 
    Apple Silicon might sound like a nifty idea, but - should Xina decide to enforce reunification - it should be the death knell to Apple products. Sole dependency on Taiwan for one of the most complex and hard to replace component is madness.
    What did Tim do for Apple? Bring it into full/fatal dependency on Xina and rinse/repeat Steve's ideas, while proving that he is incapable of pushing innovation at Apple (failure after failure after failure). (Read the excellent 'Apple in China' book).

  • Apple investors shrug, stock fails to surge on Trump tariff block

    So investors are even getting bored with TACO trades. I guess, those who want to leave the US markets are already out, waiting to return once the US to put that convicted felon into prison or the nut house.

  • Trump is too busy for his own tariff negotiations, so will dictate terms instead

    I pulled my investments, money  and accounts  out the US in preparation for the current idiot ... in December .. and plan to keep my money out of the US and away from US companies for the foreseeable future.

    I don't like to deal with idiots, that elected that clown not once but twice instead of putting him into a jail cell. From a country that did this mistake once before almost 100 years ago. Don't give in to fascists.

    It's time we get liberated form US dominance. So liberation day was right.
