  • iPhone owners emailed to apply for Siri privacy lawsuit's $95M settlement

    >They must also believe that their confidential or private communications were obtained by Apple and possibly shared by third parties following an unintended Siri activation, between September 17, 2014 and December 31, 2024.

    How do we know if Siri secretly recorded us??

  • Trump blinks: Floats suggestion that Apple might get a tariff exemption


    if you’re just a simple common sense guy, you’ll work to can appreciate what he’s trying to do while retaining the ability to see where it may go wrong 
    You don't know what he's trying to do any more than anyone else. Well-renowned economists are scratching their heads trying to figure out what he's doing, and I strongly doubt you know more about the subject than they do. Plus, he specifically said this was "not a negotiation" and he would "stay the course", neither of which proved to be true. As for "where it may go wrong", LOL, we've already seen where it went wrong. He tanked the bond market, which was going to cause a worldwide financial meltdown. That's according to that liberal rag "Fortune", BTW.

    SiTime said:
    Many iPhones are assembled in China, but iPhones are assembled in countries other than China as well. Apple can continue to ship iPhones from India (and elsewhere ex-China) to warehouses in America at the 10% tariffs rate during the 90-day pause. America can get the India (and elsewhere ex-China) assembled iPhones, while the China assembled iPhones can go to the rest of the world.
    India won't let it work like that. The phones assembled in India are for the Indian market. Indian laws (PLI, BIS, CRS) financially punish companies who import phones instead of making them in India. So Apple would run headlong into Indian tariffs while trying to avoid Chinese tariffs.

  • How to install MAME on your Apple Silicon Mac

    Problem is, all the good sources of ROMs seem to have shut down. MAME isn't much use without ROMs.

    A prerequisite to using homebrew to install mame is to install homebrew.  The good news is that that's easy.  Just read this:  https://brew.sh/
