  • iCloud lawsuit fails over misunderstanding of storage tiers

    I appreciate that courts don't want to create a chilling effect by making people who lose cases like these pay attorneys' fees for the winning side, but damn, it's suits like these that cost the consumer millions over the long haul. Apple (and most corporations) have to staff attorneys just to fight these frivolous lawsuits. This woman was hoping that Apple would setting and give her some cash. I'd bet that she's either an attorney herself or got one to take the case on contingency. In other words, probably she lost nothing but her time. Instead, she (along with hundreds of other ridiculous claims against Apple) just hit us all in our wallet when we buy our next Apple device.

  • Spotify, Epic complain again that Apple won't be in compliance with the DMA

    I have made a few Fortnight skins and recorded some music. I demand that they allow me to let people side load my content into their ecosystem without paying them.

  • Dual SIM iPhone 12 users may not get 5G speeds

    "Dual SIM users of the iPhone 12 range will have to disable their SIM or eSIM to get 5G data." How hard is it to turn the eSim on and off?

  • Students failing college AP test due to unsupported HEIC iPhone photo format

    My kid took a couple AP exams this week, and I panicked when I read the article. I asked him about it. His school told him to change the format before submitting. In other words, this was a known "issue" ahead of time, and students should have been instructed by the College Board and their teachers on a workaround. 

    Turns out, they were told by the College Board ahead of time: In the email that I got (as a parent), it explains the problem with HEIC. 

    As for submission feedback on the website, I completely agree. That's an easy add to the submission site. College Board really dropped the ball. To be fair, they only had a couple months to completely change AP testing to online.
