Release some nVidia 1080 and 1060 cards with macOS efi ROMs at a decent price that work on the Mac Pro platform OOB, and I might give nVidia the time of day. Until then, not interested.

macOSx and iOS have fairy large external seed and public beta test teams who do report hundreds of bugs during the OS development cycle. Even so a few bugs still get through, which is the nature of software.
tvOS and watchOS have no such external seed and beta test teams—there is only internal testing and a little testing by people with developer accounts.  Consequently, it is not surprising there are a few more problems with tvOS and watchOS. The problem will be fixed but that is little consolation for those who got bit this time.

Four words from the TC screen

"Starting in the US"


Expect to wait 2 or 3 years before this appears in Asia if it ever does, making it a fairly useless announcement for MOST of Apple's customers.

JR is hardly a bastion of reliability...

You have no idea what you are talking about.
First, there is no entity called JR.  There are five regional private separate passenger operators called: JR East, JR West, JR Central, JR Kyushu, JR Hokkaid, plus a freight carrier called JR Freight.
Second, in terms of operational reliability of passenger services, on-time departures and arrivals, lack of accidents, all these companies top the world's other operators.
Third, they also operate the suica mobile payments system. JR East's suica service alone has more than 70 million card holders and processes trillions of yen each year without problems. It has been a huge and successful technology.
So before you post again, check your facts and don't bore us with random "noise".

Or perhaps he could tell Apple Japan to switch on transit directions for Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo in Apple Maps so he doesn't get lost on the subway.
