  • Which hidden files you can safely delete from your Mac

    There are a variety of third-party apps and utilities out there that can "clean" your Mac and most of these files for you. Some of these apps are quite good, but others can have rather dubious origins.”

    Following this with some examples of each might be a useful way to avoid paranoia!

  • EU may be reassessing billion-dollar Big Tech fines as it waits for Trump

    I am a citizen of the EU - but I don't want to be "Saved" by the guys from Brussels ;)

    I can decide for myself, which Browser I want to use - or which streaming platform I want to listen to 

    The whole DMA is just kind of useless - other than to charge foreign Tech some "tech-tax" - and to control the Narrative in the EU.




    I’m curious…which browser and which streaming platform have the guys from Brussels forced you to use or listen to? Seems like their apparent intent was to make sure that you CAN use the one you want to.

  • Apple plans slimmest iPhone 17 & MacBook Pro designs following iPad Pro success

    chasm said:
    I only carry my phone when I’m traveling, and it’s been a harrowing experience. The battery seems to drain so quickly (see: range anxiety) and I’m constantly having to manage it. What I’d love more than anything: keep the damn phones the same thickness—or make them slightly thicker—and give me solid 18-hours of life.
    They'd need to be LOT thicker and a LOT heavier to give you 18 hours of non-stop usage.

    Take a look at the battery pack you probably (or should) have to keep your iPhone charged when you're away from power outlets. It's most likely to be considerably thicker and heavier than your iPhone, especially if you really need 18 hours (when do you sleep?) of "solid" (ie in-use) battery life. Now imagine slapping a screen on that battery and then the computer components on top of that, and that's the weight and thickness of your new iPhone.

    It sounds to me like what really needs constant managing here is your phone addiction ...
    Pretty sure they didn’t say anything about 18 hours of nonstop usage. I read it as that they’d like to be able to make it all the way through a day of normal usage before needing to put it on a charger. And I don’t think you give Apple enough credit in their ability to do that if they focused on battery life ahead of increasing thinnage…

  • Apple insists to EU antitrust regulators that it runs five App Stores, not one

    So, when IKEA, H&M, Adidas, Toyota, and BP (British Petroleum), let the US government know that they aren’t bound by US regulations, y’all are okay with that? None of them are American companies, so where do we get off telling them how they should sell their products here in the States.

  • Apple appeals Apple Watch ban, citing 'irreparable harm' to its business

    Oh PULEEZE Apple, you're a $3 trillion company, there will be no irreparable harm done to you. And if there is, that should teach you to use other company's technology without permission - something you as a company is well known for going after other companies who you think is using your technology and even small mom and pop shops that have fruit in their company's name. So no sympathy for you if you lose a few sales for cheating.
    I certainly don’t know one way or the other, but is it outside the realm of possibility that Apple did NOT use Massimo’s technology? And if hypothetically that was the case, wouldn’t Apple be opening the door to endless unwarranted claims of infringement?

    Obviously if Apple DID, then all you say is true and I’d have no argument with you.

    You do, of course, imply that you do have solid knowledge that Apple did infringe in this case…I assume you wouldn’t mind sharing your source?
