I can't even tell if prices have gone up in the Australian store, since there are no paid apps on the front page.

And I'm not entirely sure where to start looking for them. This might take a while.

On the other, other hand, a quick check shows we might be marginally up against the US$ this morning. Still pretty low, but higher than the last time I checked a few days ago.

Spotify submit complaint to Eu while being a number 1 leader in the market. How low this company can go?

You still have money you haven't given to them. Only once they have their hands on that, will they stop.

Thanks, Capitalism!

At the end when he said we have one more but that’s for another day and said the Mac Pro… so this studio isn’t going to be their biggest powerhouse but merely a stepping stone.. What the hell will the new Mac Pro be packed with??

2 x M1 Ultra or 4 x M1 Ultra

By this rate, we will see the new Mac Pro by WWDC. 

Almost certainly, the Pro will be at WWDC. At least I know it's nothing I'm going to be able to afford.

Could have the M2 by then, which could have additional interconnects. But even if it's just bigger Ultras, or multiple Ultras., it's going to piss on the competition.

Seriously? "The old-fashioned Touch ID"?

 Why use such loaded language? It's not old-fashioned, it's just different. Works better with masks, allows use under a table without being a distraction to others, and various other advantages. Sure, faceID also has advantages, but those 2 words are just oddly biased and completely unnecessary.

Read the sentence with other options, like "traditional", i.e.

    The traditional Touch ID sensor is still in use below the display.

 Or better yet, and more professional, no biased words at all, i.e.

The Touch ID sensor is still in use below the display.

I have to agree. One of the selling points of why I got my SE 2nd gen is because of the Touch ID. Then COVID happened and I was really glad I had a way to securely and quickly logon while wearing a mask. 

Are you sure the references to "old fashioned TouchID" aren't in comparison to the newer TouchID implementation on the iPad mini and others, where it's in the power button, and there is no home button?

I didn't think hotel booking apps used the Apple In-App purchases infrastructure. I mostly use Hotels.com, and I'm pretty sure that charges my credit card directly, and not via my Apple ID. You're only required to use In-App purchases for digital goods, not for physical items. That's why Amazon's app will happily sell you a physical book, but not the Kindle version. Does a hotel booking or holiday experience count as a physical item? Maybe not, but all the other apps I use for making that kind of booking avoid the In-App infrastructure, so I don't know what Expedia is doing differently.
