  • New Macs in 2025 rumored to get at least one major design refresh

    h2ph2p

    The next Mac mini will be fan less and only have the M4 in it. Basically it would be a MacBook Air in an AppleTV sized enclosure. 
    AND include a couple of ports on front.

  • Google bizarrely believes that iPhone photos can be fixed on a Pixel

    …to be more specific in my comments… the organization of the OS is inferior as it seems chaotic. They loaded it up with games I didn’t ask for. Again, iPhone user, so making basic settings changes were difficult to figure out. 

    One bright spot. Google apps work great (as well as they can since I believe Gmail is poorly designed but I do use it.)

    I’m a long time iPhone user that just got an Android for app testing. Sorry Android is inferior. That’s not breaking any ground here. But hey, this is my actual 1st experience owning an iPhone knockoff.

  • Fanhouse protests Apple's 30% commission on payments to creators

    I have no problem with Apple’s 30% cut on transactions that go through the AppStore. They deserve it.
    BUT...
    Apple deserves their cut when a sale goes through their servers, but they don’t deserve anything when it’s outside of their system. Payments to these creators don’t go anywhere near their system and Apple should keep their hands strictly off of them. 
    I'm agree 100%

    I'm thinking the end result of the legal actions could be a sweeping 15% for all but the initial app sale.

    Also, I'm steadfastly in favor of the 30% cut on AppStore transactions as you mention and agree that Apple should keep their hand off outside sales... But, doesn't Apple require you to use their payment system in-app? Thru the developer website - zero commission, yes?

  • Tim Cook says he's 'greatly optimistic' about Apple's future at shareholders meeting

    If you agree that terms of service are important, then you must be supporting Parler because Amazon violated its own terms of service by not giving Parler the 30 day notice that Amazon's terms of service guaranteed its customers.

    <--

    Also, your claim that Parler ignored Amazon's complaint is also wrong. Within a few days of the incident, Parler indicated that it was now in compliance, but Amazon won't let them back in.
    Thank you for the video link. I watched 3 of the Viva Frei Parler v Amazon legal analysis videos. Not being a Parler user, I really appreciate hearing about the case from a technical POV as it unfolded over a month. Looks like Parler had got a good case for breach of contract but not so strong a case for Anti-trust.

    As illustrated in the videos, Judge Barbara Jacobs Rothstein sided with Amazon on their legal arguments, BUT backed by Amazon's "straw man arguments" that Parler wants to force them to leave up violent/illegal "parlays" - Parler doesn't, etc., etc.

    The most egregious portion of the ruling is that Amazon doesn't, in the end (vs contact promise), need to give a client 30 days to correct the situation before being cancelled. Nope. Amazon has a clause that allows them to immediately order a permanent "suspension" of an account. 30 day notice be damned.
