    When did AI start putting those unbearable autoplay videos on the bottom of the browser? Everyone hates them.

  • Australia delivers Apple Wallet support for COVID-19 vaccine certificates

    This is all a dangerous precedent.  Authoritarian "Papers please".  

    It is not ANYONE's business if you did or did not.

  • Intel negotiating $30B deal for chipmaker GlobalFoundries

    I am willing to bet this was part of a negotiated deal w/Apple to supply it chips in the future, in exchange for sale of their cellular modem business...

  • Apple employees threaten to quit as company takes hard line stance on remote work

    libertyforalllibertyforall
    So let them quit.  Companies decide how they run their operations, people can vote with their feet!  

    On the flips-side, companies really should consider having some flexibility baked-in for at least partial remote work periodically...  Some jobs will never lend themselves to remote work, however...  This is hybrid, and more than accommodating!

    Last year we switched to Comcast xfinity mobile and are similarly pleased.  $15 before taxes and $29.40 after taxes for 5 lines.
    You get those prices ($15 before taxes) for five lines? $15 before taxes for one line? And with no other services from Comcast? That's a pretty good deal from who some call Scumcast.

    Yep, my total bill is $29.40 for 5 lines (not per line).  We also have internet with Comcast, which is a requirement for getting the xfinity mobile service, but adding the cellular knocked $10 off the monthly internet bill as a multiple product discount resulting in a net cost cost of $19.40 per month for 5 phones.

    There is a caveat to our service though.  We use our phones primarily as phones, we do not stream music or videos and rarely browse the internet on our phones.  Because of this we have a shared 1GB data plan between the five phones.  In the year or so we have had the xfinity mobile service we have yet to exceed 1GB in monthly usage (we average around 400MB per month in total between all five phones).

    I am not a Comcast fanboy, quite the opposite in fact.  But the savings we are realizing from the xfinity mobile plan certainly does help to balance the scales.  Through Comcast we have internet, a home phone (land)line, and five cellular phones with a total (post tax) cost of under $100 per month.  Previously we paid Verizon something like $120 per month for just 3 cellular phones, so this switch has been a very good (financial) thing for us.
    Mint is $30/mo. for 1 line unlimited & speeds slow after 35GB;
    Comcast Xfinity is $45/mo for 1 line unlimited & speeds slow after 20GB PLUS you are REQUIRED to also pay separately for their internet service.
