  • iPhone will catch a sales block in EU countries if Apple limits USB-C

    macxpressmacxpress
    The EU might as well just be Apple's new design/engineering team. They're doing a great job at stifling innovation by mandating ports and speeds....let's not stop there! What's next, Apple has to make every new iPhone with a minimum 50MP camera? Or, perhaps they will mandate that all new iPhones must be able to run both Android and iOS?

    Already human relationships are suffering because one party decides that playing games or answering a phone call or text is more important than being present for the person in the room.

    Already male adolescents from affluent white families are buying assault rifles and going on killing sprees, due in part to losing the ability to distinguish real human suffering from a digital depiction of mayhem like Fortnite.

    Now we're supposed to believe that blocking our senses of sight and sound from the world around us will make this all better somehow, instead of exacerbating our disconnection from each other?

    Sure it's tiresome to hear, especially if you don't want to believe it. But truth doesn't require anyone to believe it. It's just the truth.
    You forgot the /s in your post....

    The Mac Pro becomes even more of a niche product with the Mac Studio out there. The Studio offers more than enough power for most use cases and the need for PCI cards is rarer than ever. 

    Too bad- it’s awesome to have gobs of power but with the insane efficiency of Apple Silicon it’s no longer necessary. You can have your cake and eat it already.
    The nfortunatelyhe Ultra in the Studio is handicapped due to design flaw. So it doesn’t live up to anywhere near its potential. 

    An M2 Ultra is likely too hot to makes sense. So it waits for M3. Should get a revision or 2 prior to launch of big screen iMac and Mac Pro. 
    What design flaw? I own one and it’s been a reliable beast for Redshift and C4D, but Adobe products just don’t feel snappy with it. Please link so I can research. 👍
    A memory buffer bottleneck (Translation Lookaside Buffer). 

    The Ultra is quick, since the Max is quick, but it’s nowhere near as quick as it should/could be. 

    Of course it’s a bummer when you buy something and find this stuff out later. But that’s the way it is. 

    It’s a widely known issue. Just Google it. 

    Thankfully, Apple is aware and has already resolved this in m2. So when the M3 Ultra (and greater) chips arrive, they’ll be singing at full potential. 
    Yeah it looked like the M1 series was having issues with scaling. The Ultra wasn't as fast as it should have been. Definitely sounds like a design flaw but oh well it's a 1st gen M series chip so kinda to be expected. M2 at least with Pro and Max series seems to fix that. I'm sure M3 will be even better.

    Maybe Tim will save TikTok....but with these old geezers who can't even turn the damn phone on still in congress technology will always be behind in this country.
