Agreed. I agree with the iOS lockdown as I do most of my financial and medical there. I can see it for iPad as a sort of locked down computer you can’t break typing random things into terminal some website said to.…
There may be one or two good examples of companies who do not depend on dark patterns to keep subscriptions, but plenty of the big names are associated with absolute horror stories of numerous hour long phone calls…
I presume you mean how you can upload CSV or XLSX spreadsheets but not view them? It does seem an oversight they do not have conversion on the website or the ability to import into a spreadsheet. More interesting is how…
Yet they completely failed to do so for Mac 32-bit apps. There is a huge library of apps that have not been updated to 64-bit to this day and it is a travesty they never released a virtual classic mode to run 32-bit and…
Because Apple dropped 10 billion on car research which was an apparent fail. Far simpler and cheaper to snipe startups where you know you are getting a proven product. That comes with a fresh batch of engineers in most…
I will admit they change and depreciate APIs like crazy, but do you have any examples of features or AppleScript being jettisoned that were not fixed? The issue that stands out to me was the once in 17 year 2019 cut-off…
Disagree. Trump is 100% willing and apparently able to crush American businesses unless they kneel. If watching a movie and giving him a gold toilet seat bought off that extortionist it was probably the cheapest any…
They were touting ultralight ultra light thin metals for a while there, but never really followed up past the SIM ejection tools. The main reason I haven’t purchased a Vision Pro is they have all sorts of glass on the…
Abandonware at this point I enjoyed Microsoft Pandora's Box as plain old jigsaw fun. It seems to scream for multi-touch support and higher resolution but it was left to rot.
I think it falls under the article yesterday about male German citizens having restrictions on their travel. Electronic ID is a step toward “papers please”. Germany at least seems to feel international war is only a few…
I am sure prosecutors have AI expert witnesses on speed dial. Would probably testify under oath they ran it through their own AI analysis and it came back as not AI. Even public defenders don’t bother with their own…
There is just too much money being burned in AI for Apple to keep researchers. Also models have no respect for original art which leads to a branding issue of being a platform for artists. Apple is competent at timing…
I thought it was Google refusing to provide turn by turn directions? Apple announced last year they are putting their own ads in Maps so if that was the real problem the corporate leadership has done a complete 180 on…
Sure the old social there was the kid with porn mags and cigs in his treehouse, but you were never at his house 24/7 and that limited exposure almost inoculated against long term addictions and you experienced it with…
Typically pure spam not even from MAGA phishing cc info from the most gullible. Replying STOP usually does the trick. I think of it as the side effect of first amendment protections that people do not report it for what…
Does sole intent to advance scientific knowledge even exist as a category anymore? I was given modern research is all pay to play where the grant sponsor decided the topic and what can be done with the results.
Apple will take back all devices and recycle them. Please do not let her put it in a landfill.
Make the failure billable for failures in the contract as it is a significant downtime. For every false alarm you need to pay the salaries that were wasted and the snacks and therapists for the kids. Likewise for every…
Issue with LLM with Siri is bad press. There are articles every day about LLM pushing suicide, drugs, violence and the like. Stability and security are issues too if it was given any sort of system write access. However…
Illogical may not be the right word. We have already reached the point of passible. WiFi speeds are decent for data. Wireless charging is 2 hours to a full quick charge and efficiency gets better every generation. As…
Public interest does not seem to be the driving factor. Everyone owns kitchen appliances and even if there is network support it generally requires a specific app that is out of support very early in the device…
Perhaps bad taste, but bots could also be legitimately purposely violating the most private or traumatizing moments a vulnerable person has in any exploitative way it cares to. I am not sure using bad taste is enough of…
That sounds like a fun thought experiment. What exactly would happen? I think is why the EU and UK pushing so hard to open the gates is so they have the excuse to take control themselves and slam the gates back shut…
It is not just Apple. The UK is going after every company with their porn filtering laws. Imagine the response if people did not stand up to their tyranny and the Uk kept pushing their agendas further and further. This…
It is a strange definition of relatively trivial to ask each and every person on the planet who has served content to be aware of all constantly changing local judicial content restrictions, to identify the location of…
