The only time your mac ask for your credit card information is when you are trying to pay something with your Apple account and you don't already have it. If you don't want to be uncomfortable then simply don't try to pay for

iPads/iPhones, the last few generations don't throttle, at least not in 30m-1h of continuous usage, compared to Android devices. Check Anandtech reviews if you don’t believe it.

Ignore the stated frequency in the geekbench page as its almost always wrong. That intel cpu is pegged at 3.2Ghz for the duration of the bench vs (supposedly) 2.36Ghz on the iPad.

Unsurprising? So it is an easy thing to do to at least equal Intel with their vast experience after only a few years, when no one else is able to do it? By the way if you have a problem with the number of cores just compare the single core

I think this is a better comparison, as both have same TDP and fanless. (That Intel is a Kaby Lake Y Core i5 1.2Ghz/3.2Ghz Boost cpu) Edit for perspective: Thats the same cpu in the just upgraded MacBooks. http://browser.gee

You might prefer this one, as I find it much more relevant. http://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/compare/3036382?baseline... That is a Core-i5 Kaby Lake Y. Same approximately TDP, both fanless. Thats the CPU i

That was about Geekbench 3, the previous version. The new version doesn't have those problems, and also it uses the exact same workload between desktops and mobile devices. In those same forums there are comments by Linus about the new

Yes, that is a bummer. It means that all those NFC iphonse 6/6s in countries without Apple pay will never use the capabilities. Just stupid.

My understanding is that not even that is safe. Amazon mixes stock for the same sku product from all their suppliers, so even if only one of them is selling fakes, you can get one. Not even "Ship from and sold by Amazon.com" is sa

You can't even set up the hours you want f.lux to run. And the reason given by the developers is insane. Just for that I say good ridance.

They are supporting them at least 4 years, not 2. That's Google. Edit: Well now you edited your response and mine doesn't make sense :/

I read the other day a bullshity response in their forums like that their objective was to understand human behaviour not just set timers or something like that. Edit: - "Our goal is to further the understanding of human biology, not j

Well, given that the Flux team has refused for years to allow us to configure the times and for how long it activates itself, I welcome Apple bringing this to the mac.

True, i can't imagine that being the case in macOS. Though, I was still very disappointed to find out that using the ethernet thunderbolt dongle used more battery that using wifi in my 2015 rMBP.

Yeah, this is basically my opinion too. Luckily I was due for an upgrade last year when the Broadwells came out so Im set for a few years, otherwise this would have been a painful update for me. I believe is fair for them to raise prices if

2 years ago, while I still had just a Macbook Air, I built a gaming PC, but choose all the hardware from the tonymacx86 guide so I could use it also for iOS development. Last year I bought a Broadwell rMBP and relegated the Gaming PC to jus
