Is the Apple One subscription worth it in 2025?
My family has Premiere. The main thing we get out of it is 4 subscriptions to AppleTV+. I use Apple Music a fair amount. My wife likes Apple news. We all benefit from the extra storage even though that is not an "in your face" kind of benefit. The kids prefer Spotify to Apple Music apparently due to a set of compelling features on that platform that I can't articulate. We dont use any of the rest of it to any extent. It's marginally cheaper than paying for the individual services we use. My kids love it though, because they dont have to pay for anything

LG buys patents to speed up bringing microLED to Apple Watch Ultra
"notoriously problematic microLED"I have been following the micro LED commercialization trends for a few years. That is the first time I have heard the technology described as "notoriously problematic". It is an emerging technology so yes there will be yield issues and pricing issues. However, that is common to many new technologies, especially at the scales at which micro LED operates. I can't surface a lot of articles that claim the technology is "notoriously problematic". A google search mainly finds this article. What is the source of that assertion and is it corroborated? Are so many people that pessimistic that the viability of micro LED is in doubt?

Reddit plans accessibility changes to iOS app as community fury continues
Is it just me, or is the Reddit website basically unusable on phones? The text of posts is broken down to one or two words per line and scrolls to infinity and beyond making it virtually impossible to read. I always figured it must be something I am doing wrong since surely someone at Reddit would have noticed this by now and been so embarrassed that they would try to get it fixed. But it has been that way for a very long time now. -
Vietnam asks Foxconn, others, to reduce electricity use as power cuts loom
Apple could build a fuel cell installation similar to the one they have in North Carolina and sell the power back to Foxconn and others. It's only 10 MW, which is less than 1% of a nuclear power plant or hydro dam. but it should be more than enough for its vendors. Apple has enough cash on hand to build 10 nuclear plants but that would not be politically possible in Vietnam. Wind power is an option, but may be politically difficult as well. It would only take 4 turbines to come in around 10 MW. I do think this is Apple's problem to solve. They have to break their dependence on China, and they have to do it soon.

Why Tesla can get by without CarPlay but other car makers can't
I didn't realize Tesla did not have CarPlay support. Even if Musk wasn't such a huge donkey butt, that would stop me buying one right there.
