  • Samsung's cylindrical ArtPC Pulse computer apes design of Apple's Mac Pro

    Hackintosh here I come.
    You'd be better off getting a second-hand Mac Pro. For an extra work station we picked up a base model almost a year ago for only 60% of the new/retail price.

  • Touch controllers on iPhone 6, 6 Plus failing in specific way for some users

    I have this exact problem and it's been getting worse and worse. Most of the time I can get the phone to work again with twisting the top and bottom in the opposite directions. Other times I give up after few tries. My phone shows no visible damage and I think I take a good care of it.

    Of course, I am out of warranty already but truth be told I have not tried to take it in yet. I feel that I can last till the new one comes out.

    It is extremely frustrating. 
    Just call Applecare and then take it to an Apple store. Even out of warranty they will straight out replace it on the spot - they did so with my 3GS back in the day.

  • Apple counters Australian banks' call for iPhone NFC access, cites handset security

    So the three major banks would like to have Apple Pay for themselves while on the same time refusing Apple Pay to use their services. I understand that all business want profits, but if by "any methods necessary" means jeopardizing the consumer's security (and we're talking their money here) AND neglecting the consumer's choice to use ApplePay by forcing their own products (using Apple Chip while throwing out Apple Pay token tech), I think there is a big problem here - in which does not lie on Apple side.
    The don't want to use Apple Pay, they want to use the NFC. Apple pay is Apple Pay. It's not the Apple chip as Apple doesn't have exclusive rights to it because it's a standard NFC. It's also not Apple Pay token tech as all NFC payment's use the same standard token tech. 

    I'm not siding with the banks here but you're making it sound as if Apple owns all rights to the NFC payment's token tech, which they do not.
    Apple, whatever fingers it may want to have in the pie, is still providing the most secure solution for it's customers. I'll take that over whatever service Australia's banks want to push onto me.

  • Chinese protesters smashing Apple iPhones over UN tribunal South China Sea decision

    I remember when they trashed Japanese restaurants in yet another protest against the Japanese. Funny thing was nearly all of these restaurants were owned by locals. There was footage of one Camry driver (again, local Chinese) who was dragged out of their car and the car totalled by the mob as well, iirc.

  • Apple refuses to back GOP convention because of Trump politics

    Trump and his views are abhorrent. Well done, Apple.
