Apple threatens to kill iMessage & FaceTime in UK if controversial law passes
Appleish said:From the country that instituted Brexit against popular opinion and had an unelected leader that was only in office for a few weeks, who destroyed hundreds of billions of pounds from their economy.
The vote for Brexit was clear, the majority of the population of the United Kingdom voted for it to happen (17.4M to leave vs 16.1M to remain).
Yes, Scotland and, to a lesser degree Northern Ireland, voted to remain. However even nearly 40% of the Scots voted to leave which is a fact that the SNP never recognises as they pretend that all of Scotland voted to remain in the EU.
Was it the right decision? Well, I don’t think we will truly know that for at least another 10 years. None of the prophetic doom and gloom scenarios ever got close to materialising and the country was always going to be worse off during the initial divorce stage.
Either way the result of the decision is largely irrelevant, what is relevant is that a democratic vote was taken and was then acted upon (albeit poorly). -
Netflix just made it more expensive to go ad-free in US & UK

Peacock is jacking up prices for both new and existing customers
I hate adverts with a passion, so am always on the no ad plans. The biggest benefit to me from these streaming services was the fact that there were no blasted adverts. Now it's changing and they are all jumping on the ad band waggon.
It amazes me that these companies seem to receive $6 per users for crappy ads that almost everyone either mutes or walk away from to grab a cup of coffee.

First Apple Silicon M3 Mac releases rumored for October launch
I wonder why Apple did not bother refreshing with the M2 SoC. I’d have bought one had they done so.
My kids need a computer for school work and light games, but I don’t want to get shafted with older tech for the original RRP.
I’d hoped Apple would have stopped leaving models to languish for no discernible reason once they’d ditched Intel.
