  • Peacock is jacking up prices for both new and existing customers

    hammeroftruthhammeroftruth
    This is happening across seveal consumer subscritoion industries: Obama phones, subscriptions, Netflix, Amazon  Prime, Water, Electricity Gas you name it.   Why you ask?  Because they are giving away or 50% reduction to lazy people who choose not to work.   Those of us who bust our backs to support ourselves are now also paying for the lazy.    Fact Check it.

  • Plant-based marketing campaign uses Steve Jobs & faces potential conflict with Apple

    hammeroftruthhammeroftruth
    I thought Jobs was a pescatarian and not a vegan. That’s what I heard while he was alive. 
    Also there was a story I read online that his oncologist hypothesized that he got his cancer from the chemicals he used while cleaning circuit boards at HP and it metastasized into his organs which would have killed him eventually no matter what he did, diet, medication, radiation etc. By the time it was detectable it was too late.

  • Younger Apple customers may be the key to Apple Vision Pro's success

    hammeroftruthhammeroftruth
    I believe that the younger generation will buy into the concept, but not the price. Even though they may have the money, they’re not buying up other headsets because most of the others dont have a use beyond gaming, except hololense and they’re more expensive and do a lot less. 

    What you are seeing is the birth of a new way of computing. As long as Apple puts the effort and the resources into it, AND makes a device 
    “For the rest of us.”, which means a price that can be swallowed during this era of financial insecurity. If not, this thing is another cube.

    Don't be thankful it's come to the iPad, instead criticise it for not having everything day 1.
    It’s a legit criticism. As is the subscription model. 
    It’s weird how they thought not having the same important features as the Mac version would make pros use it rather than keeping it under wraps until they release it fully compatible with the Mac and 3rd party
    plug ins. 

    Subscriptions should die and the market should revert back to paying for upgrades or not upgrading and keeping the software you paid for functional. If the fucking EU really cared about the consumer, they could have brought this issue up instead of trying to break open the walled garden, and lining their pockets with cash after “fining” Apple.

    I  feel sorry for the Marketing team who have to try and sell this thing.   Apple's traditional market is devices for the mass market,  yes the higher end of the market since the original Mac Apple has always be the high side, but doable. Now their Marketing team has to deal with a product that really isn't for the masses its niche product.  In addition to be a niche product it's even expensive for its market.   So sure it's Apple and a lot of Apple fanboys will be drooling and shouting about it, but how many will actually shell out the estimated $3000 in this tough economy?    So I think Apples Marketing team is going to feel like Sisyphus pushing that boulder up the mountain.
    No worse than the “gold” Apple Watch Edition which was $10000.
