UK's latest embarrassing technology demand centers on phone thefts
A good commentary, save for the fact that "Labour MP" no longer applies. The rest seems spot on.
This is just another bullying, political posturing move by flailing politicians trying to create the appearance that they are doing SOMEthing. "We have a crime problem? Blame the tech companies!" Clearly the mayor and police chief are trying to hide their incompetence behind these moves. Pathetic. -
Apple TV+ cancels 'The Afterparty' after two seasons
Watched the first episode. Meh.
This Tiffany Haddish crud getting flushed is, to quote Tiffany Haddish, "The most beautiful thing I have ever seen."

When I saw a AppleTV+ stand up for quality programming. That meant so much to me.

Apple reduces raises given to retail employees after weak iPhone quarter
Oh FFS. Who the heck is running Apple's retail business? The ghost of Jack Welch? This is an idiotic, myopic, 19th century management approach that has guaranteed long term negative return.
Almost nobody goes to an Apple Store not already knowing what they are going to buy. iPhones aren't an impulse buy as is gum at the grocery store checkout line. Deirdre and every other manager between retail and VP takes similar percentage cuts to raises.

At what point did Deirdre sell her soul for a 1.2% return on her stock options? She should already be out on her can for her moronic, ham-fisted approach to store unions. When Microsoft does a better job with its employees, you know something is screwed up.
