    There are a few things that would be useful, an improved Siri for example. But there has never in my recollection been a WWDC keynote where I said “Oh F*** no” quite as many times. Many of their headline abilities I will just want to disable as soon as I can and as completely as I can. I AM an artist. I AM a writer. I have no use for AI generating my images and text. 
    Remember that you are not required to upgrade the operating system on any of your existing Apple devices. You are free to stick with iOS 17 and macOS Sonoma (or earlier).

    Here's what I wrote in a separate thread: "Remember that almost everything Apple's devices can be disabled. Location Services, Notifications, Siri, iCloud services, Face ID, Touch ID, Apple Pay, microphone access, photo library access, camera access, music library access, Bluetooth, Wifi, whatever. You can basically run your iPhone like an iPod circa 2008 if you want."

    If you have used Apple devices for more than a month and watched the keynote presentation with a modicum of attention, you will have noticed that these are ALL optional actions. If you just want to write an e-mail and hit send, you are still free to do so. You are free to type out your grocery list on Notes, draw stick figure people, make spelling errors, etc.
    I am using an iP11, it is due for an upgrade. When that happens I will have no choice but to go to 18.
    Believe me I will be disabling as much of the AI S*** as I can as fast as I can.

    I understand you’re an artist but what you are you so afraid about ai features? It’s only there to help you, not to replace you. 

    Relax iPhone is not taking over your job.

    One of the subheadings in the article is "RCS isn't the answer". I'm pointing out that if you're going to say that RCS isn't the answer, it's useful to say what is.
    I disagree.  I can say death isn't the answer to life, but it doesn't mean I have any alternative.  There is always the possibility that there is no useful answer.  Sometimes, life sucks, and that's all there is to it.

    What? Are you saying there's just no way that iOS and Android users could possibly communicate better? MMS is peak technology? Pack it in and shut it down because there's no way to improve the current situation!
    ios and android users already communicate with each other with multiple apps like WhatsApp, telegram, line, wechat… why are you asking if there’s no way for iOS and android to communicate with each other when all these options are already available??

  • Express VPN Aircove router review: an okay router with neat VPN tools

    cutykamucutykamu
    I’ve been using asus rt-ax88u as my main router with Ethernet backhaul mesh (2 rt-ax55 routers)… I tried plenty of vpns on that like ghostvpn, expressvpn, nordvpn (openvpn protocol) and I was getting speeds around 150mbps. 
    Switched to Surfshark vpn which supports wireguard protocol and now I’m getting around 400mbps speeds. 

    Plus ax88u supports profiles which means you can select which devices uses vpn and which devices can avoid vpn and just use the local internet. 

    I love asus routers they have plenty of options and I highly recommend to everyone.

  • US lawmakers urge Apple CEO Tim Cook to reinstate HKmap Live app

    Have you ever been to know or know Chinese people? Because if you have you would never say that Chinese people should rise up against their government. It’s the opposite in fact as general population is quite happy with the current system.

  • Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 980 more than a year behind Apple's A12 Bionic in performance

    Wow, after few years of 64bit Socs coming out by apple they are still way ahead then all the other companies in the world. It is really amazing to see but still some comments here are that benchmarks don’t matter anymore. Well they definitely do.
