  • No redesign coming to Apple Watch Series 8, says leaker

    I’m more interested in new sensors/health features and care less about a redesign.

  • Apple takes down online Apple Store for 'updates' [u]

    If you can’t maintain a virtual store while upgrading, you shouldn’t be in the online business.
    Lol.  If Apple can figure it out like you have, just maybe they’ll be a success in the online business

  • Apple hires veteran Lamborghini executive to work on 'Apple Car' team

    The Apple Car is Apple's undoing. It is their blindspot because their decisions are US-based and the US is the car-crazy country. Car ownership must be reduced drastically year upon year to around 5% of current levels in order to meet globally agreed climate change targets. Electric mostly shifts the pollution elsewhere and introduces new toxic battery pollutants. Apple should be working on hyper-efficient public transport but mostly in reducing the need to travel at all. 
    Was waiting for the obligatory Apple is Doomed™ comment. You really think they haven't thought any of this through? Do batteries cancel the benefits of halting carbon emissions? How do you know they're not developing public transport? Reducing the need to travel at all? Like, maybe with an advanced VR headset that brings the location to you? Hmm. Better get on the horn and set up that meeting with Tim before he destroys the company!
    You not only got Apple is Doomed but WE'RE ALL DOOMED if we don't meet "globally agreed climate change targets."  Timmillea - it's not a secret that "the globe" is NEVER going anywhere close to meeting those "globally agreed targets" especially with the most populous countries doing NOTHING.

    If you think shifting to EVs only shift the pollution elsewhere, you must have no confidence in solar, wind, hydro, or other clean energy and I assume you're opposed to nuclear energy as well.

  • Russia plans to fine Apple over alleged antitrust violations

    So Apple doesn’t allow app developers to tell customers about payment options or provide options. Apple shouldn’t even consider complying before Russia allows its journalists to tell its citizens what they’re doing to Ukraine. 

    It’s so interesting and sad how they’ve become the fascists they claim to be fighting.

  • Rumored Apple Watch Pro could cost $900

    I think that this is an Apple-sanctioned rumor and they're playing the fandom and the press.  They're starting a rumor about the $900-$1000 pro watch.  We'll see them put out the $699 or $799 watch and the press will marvel at the great price.
