Apple's bad blood with Nvidia continues, after decades of fighting
There was always NVIDIA wanting a platform-brand presence everywhere it was, including Apple. And that was philosophically incompatible with Apple. NVIDIA knew that, and as it was Apple’s literal OWN platform, they were the ones souring any deal by refusing to budge on that.

New Magic Mouse said to fix everything that's been wrong with it for 15 years

That's ok then. I'm perfectly happy to accept suboptimal design if it contributes to Apple's bottom line.foregoneconclusion said:The reason the charging port is on the bottom is due to the original removable battery option. The charging port is in the same location as the latch for the removable battery cover. That allowed Apple to save $$ by keeping the industrial design almost identical between the two different versions.Then contribute to your own physiological health by taking the damned 15 minute break to charge it if it happens to need it.

Google is pissed that the DOJ may make it sell off Chrome
netrox said:I don't agree with DOJ's premise therefore I do think it's wrong and counterproductive for Google to sell Chrome. We have plenty of browser alternatives that work just fine.
But you don't pay attention to reality, so that tracks. -
iPhone 17 Air could be Apple's thinnest iPhone yet, with a thickness of just 6mm
Anyone switching to it noticed something that's only ¾ the thickness of what they're currently using. They'll get used to the "new normal", of course, but it's a substantial change. It's the change people notice.DAalseth said:
1.8mm thinner? That’s about 1/16th of an inch. All of that, and a limited camera just to gain 1/16th? Who TF would even notice let alone care?Relative to the current iPhone 16 Plus, which has a thickness of 7.8mm, the iPhone 17 Slim will allegedly feature a housing that's only 6mm thin
