I don't add "in my opinion" to everything I say because everything I say is my opinion.  I'm not wasting keystrokes on clarifying to pedants what they should already be able to discern.

  • EU finalizes charger rule forcing USB-C on iPhones in 2024

    Is the EU going to define the charger quality or will any garbage charger be allowed to be sold? What about the quality of USB cables? Not all cables are the same, including ones with USB-C connectors on them. I know there are cheap lightning cables that don't work with Apple devices so I only buy from reputable sources. How will the EU deal with lawsuits from iPhone users who buy EU-sold garbage chargers and cables? 
    The EU doesn't sell chargers and cables so I don't know why you think they're vulnerable to any lawsuits.  Besides, if any iPhone users buy trashy USB-C cables then they likely bought trashy Lightning cables, those that you know exist.  What's the difference?

  • Bono takes the blame for the 2014 iTunes U2 album disaster

    Bono may have agreed to “give it away”; but let’s take a moment of honesty.  Bono has ZERO authority to speak on behalf of what iTunes (Apple) actually DID

    Apple is the Company responsible for force feeding unwanted music onto millions of devices.  Not U2.  Apple did the deed
    The fact that you’re still seemingly in a rage about this pretty benign incident almost a decade later says a lot more about you, than anyone else. Jesus Christ. Get some air. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    I hardly think commenting in a thread about the subject of a PR exercise gone wrong, saying that it went wrong and attributing it, qualifies as "still in a rage".  Has hodar mentioned this anywhere else?

    A pretty shallow attempt to cynically demean and/or smear someone.  Grow up.

  • AirPods Max active noise cancellation pared down by newest firmware

    And isn't it so great how Apple pushes this firmware to you and doesn't allow the user to manage upgrading it at all?
