Apple to hike App Store prices in Europe and other countries in October
riverko said:Europe isn’t only place, also Poland and Sweden… mmmm, where do you think these two countries are? 🤔
It should have been "European countries with EUR as national currency".
And for clarity: Poland and Sweden are in Europe but are not using EUR as their national currency. -
iPhone 14 Pro owners complain of shaking camera in third-party apps
CheeseFreeze said:You’d expect their API’s to be used by themselves, so there’s no difference between a 1st and 3rd party app in that regard. It’s an abstraction layer in a sense.Isn’t it just a matter of updating these apps to call the latest version of the API?
The problem is Apple’s fault. They didn’t announce their new hardware and kept their new software the same despite releasing iOS16 betas to keep their hardware a secret until launch. No third party developer had the opportunity to update on time. Lame.
It seems that not every user who uses those 3d party apps experience the problem. Appleinsider, as mentioned in the article, couldn’t reproduce the issue.
So it’s not purely the 3d party app, or how they use API. Other factors could be involved.

iPhone 14 will be sold in Russia despite Apple's departure

By any means necessary.
And what is about “real” Ukrainians? What is the definition of “real” in that case?
And why you have so much focus on those who DON’T speak Ukrainian? Is it a part of being “real”? -

waveparticle said:verne arase said:What you have to realize is that the USSR generations just watch television for all their information, and TV is totally controlled by the government.
Younger Russians use VPNs and get information from the internet at large, and most of them are against the Special Military Operation.
The thing both have in common is they all seem to be totally divorced from what their country is doing; none of them thinks that anything they do make a speck of difference in what Putin and the Russian government is going to do. Russian elections are going on right now, and all opposition candidates have been jailed. Anyone who vocally opposes the war has had to leave the country - even calling the conflict a war can get you a 15 year jail term.
Interviews with remaining Russian citizens seem to show that practically none of them is introspective and thinks about the atrocities being committed by Russian forces - they all seem very privileged and think they should have the freedom to travel to other lands, and even the newly minted Russians say that if they're denied travel visas the offending country is an enemy - so the difference between the USSR generations and post USSR Russians may simply be a new coat of paint. Russians seem very naïve, though that naiveté may simply be them being cagy and avoiding persecution.
There are rural and urban Russians, and all the troops come from the more impoverished rural setting.
Of the urban areas, only Moscow and St. Petersburg really count, and none of grunts are from these areas.
Russia is throwing forces in Ukraine as fast as they can, and they come from prisons and anywhere they can get personnel - a big source of troops is the occupied areas of Ukraine taken by Russian in 2014, and men from those areas are being conscripted at an alarming rate.
Anyway, enough of this off-topic post, except to say that Apple gear is a ton more expensive now in Russia than it was when Apple marketed devices legitimately. -
Compared: New AirPods Pro versus original AirPods Pro
jeffharris said:So do the new version still fall out and require constant adjustment to get them to sort of fit?
Because of the abysmal fit, I rarely use my AirPods Pro, the need for constant adjustments and sticking them back in.I tried all the ear piece sizes. Large has fewer problems.
I got some neoprene replacements from Amazon which are much better. They stay in place more and comfort is better.
Apple should really address that issue.I have no problem with AirPods Pro. They are the most comfortable earbuds (out of 20 pairs I tried).
