  • Apple One bundle includes Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and more

    I'd use the Family bundle because we already have Apple TV+, Apple Music and iCloud Storage, but not Arcade.  But what I'd really like to do is drop Arcade and get 2TB of storage instead of 200GB.  And I have no need for News+ or Fitness+.  So I hope there's some flexibility to customize here.
    Exactly 200GB is not enough for a family. I want ATV+, Music, iCloud  2TB and News+
    They need to be flexible. I will never be interested in Arcade or Fitness+

  • Apple Car may have integrated air scenting tech in a compact unit

    If anything makes me very nervous about holding Apple stock , it is this "Apple Car". Hubris in the extreme. Making cars is hard, and far harder and messier that anyone thinks. Tesla might have a sky-high stock price, but they only make money from other manufacturers paying them for carbon-credits. Can you imagine Apple opening a car plant, in say, Mexico to build this thing? Autonomous driving is a dead end - its like AI, still 20 years out.

    My only hope is that they will sell the project to some existing manufacturer.

  • Apple says it wasn't told about UK contact tracing app issues, plans

    Of course the reason only 4% of iPhones were detected was because the app has to be in the foreground due to Apples rules on bluetooth. They knew this was going to happen and have wasted everyones time with these trials. Trying to brow-beat Apple was always going to fail.

    Apparently you are not a developer unless you have some kind of facial jewelry.

  • IBM's 200,000 Macs have made a happier, more productive workforce

    How the worm has turned....
    I support PC's and Mac's. If things are working well it's hard to say MacOS is better than Windows 10 for a pro user. But when things go bad with Windows, they turn into a complete and utter nightmare than can suck your soul dry. Plus the hardware , at least Dell machines, is of a measurably lower quality. They just fail more often. I have had 3 or 4 motherboards replaced out of 20 machines.
