Microsoft Windows 10X reportedly paused to focus on Windows 10 enhancements
Microsoft have always been cowards when it comes to taking even the tiniest risks, and moving things forward, and dropping legacy. Its why the newest surface laptops still come with USB-A ports. They're just so fucking terrified of losing customers if they drop them, and thus they're slowing down the full adoption of USB-C and extending the transition indefinitely. Thats how little confidence they have in the merits of their products. They lean on ancient tech as some kind of competitive advantage. -
Epic CEO Tim Sweeney grilled on platform agreements, V-Bucks
digitol said:Yeah. Epic games and this clown Tim oh and Seeeney too, absolutely are horrible. I’m see this as Both wrong. Apple, is absolutely monopolizing, by not allowing apps be loaded or installed via website, like a computer currently can, but soon won’t. Cough M1 mac, cough bigsur and then ear coming future. However epic is just as wrong/bad. Verdict. Both can go to hell.
And no, what you described has fuck-all to do with a "monopoly". -

Microsoft compares Surface Laptop 4 to MacBook Air in new ad
Jesus Christ these ads are so pathetic. Isn't it sad how the primary anti-Apple ads the past few years just highlight ancient ports that Apple discontinued, as if they're some big new feature?
LOOK AT US WE HAVE USB-A! BECAUSE WE'RE TOO MUCH OF COWARDS TO REMOVE IT AND HELP SPEED UP THE TRANSITION! NOPE, WE NEED TO DO THE OPPOSITE, SLOW DOWN THE TRANSITION AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE WE'RE JUST SO TERRIFIED CONSUMERS WON'T BUY OUR PRODUCT IF WE DON'T INCLUDE THIS ANCIENT PORT!
Also, are her nails long enough? How exactly does she even use that touchscreen?

Tile bemoans Apple AirTags launch, raises antitrust concerns
What blows my mind is that when pretty much every competitor to Air Tags doesn't have user replaceable batteries, Air Tags DO. Not exactly what you would expect from an Apple product. I think that's shocking, and awesome. Not a fan of the trackers that you basically have to throw out after a year, or subscribe to in order to get new ones.
