  • Senate Judiciary Committee advances antitrust bill targeting Big Tech

    viclauyyc said:
    If it passes, I don’t think it stand a chance in court. This is so biased on one industry but not the other. This is very far away from fair.

    Can you ask Walmart to use other payment system? If you think it is nonsense, then why it is ok to ask AppStore or Google Play store to have other means of payment. 
    It does... exactly the same as with telecommunication few decades ago. Read about Baby Bells. Your feelings are misplaced. This has proven to work in EVERY court.

    And to be honest you should thank for this because otherwise you would be paying for your mobile upwards $300 for AT&T service monthly today if they did not break up telecommunication decades ago.

  • Three more 'Apple Car' engineers leave for aviation startups

    Electric Air Taxis = Richie Rich clientele and ridiculously over-inflated market caps for a product that has very limited use cases. In other words, the engineers are just chasing some easy money. 
    Nevertheless it is clientele. In fact there is investment company that started this few years ago and it makes those flights social meet venues between people who can afford it. I believe this company is still in Florida. I tried to get job with them in engineering. There may be market for this. Not all solutions are for general population and we have to respect that.

  • Time Machine backups causing issues for some Apple Silicon Mac users

    Time Machine had already problems starting from Catalina on Intel 2 years ago. It could not do first backup after migrating to new system and it took for some people days to do it. I suspect that Apple engineering forgot that indexing should be disabled during this period of time or at least user should be notified about need for it. A lot of things happening in backgrounds including mysterious error codes on popup window  just like in old Microsoft Windows. If you ran out of support you are stuck, but some people post solutions on external forums. One of those is you have to disable some feature temporarily on one particular model in order to have update working. Apple does not seem to be in control of QA and the only people say is "buy new one", "it is so ancient". well there you go if you treat things with this attitude and not criticize Apple you will end up with problems on brand new Apple computers and devices. You got what you asked for.

  • Some SD cards not working with 2021 MacBook Pro, users report

    In general this seems to be OS problem like we have seen before. Many years ago even standard USB had problems in Mac OS X. So nothing new here in macOS. Backward compatibility with technology lacks with Apple. The funny part is that you take their hardware and install fresh Linux desktop software and all those peripherals that did not work with macOS start working right away suddenly. Seriously, I have checked that myself reusing some Apple hardware. Still good to go and while Apple does not support it others do.
