No. Since this is for the US division, the pronunciation would be "Voltswagen".

Why does that need to be a qualifier? Having to look at it doesn't bother me and, if I want to rely on muscle memory, I just plugin an external keyboard. When I'm editing media or coding, I don't mind needing to look at the T

Sure, but that's what PCs and Linux are for. Macs, macOS, and iOS are not for that purpose. They're meant to be straight-forward and immediately usable as opposed to customizable. When I was younger, I would probably have loved an

You can still do that. If you just tap the volume button, it toggles between mute and unmute.

I don't think that's good enough, unfortunately. People just dismiss the dialogues or malware distributors just learn to provide instructions to bypass any consent dialogues. The benefit of the App Store is that it's impossi

How do you figure? Press and slide to your desired volume in one motion. The new volume control is one of the reasons I now prefer the Touch Bar (in addition to scrubbing through media). I used to have to tap the volume button multiple time

Sparkle is great but, for some reason, it never works on the apps that I have that use it. I check the box to automatically update apps in the future and I still get prompted every time there's an update. Even then, I hit the update bu

This is a much better idea than the parent. It would be great if MacOS included a default package manager and apps registered themselves like this. My only concern would be malware taking advantage of this and somehow figuring out how to pe

This would work great for technical people and be an absolute nightmare for my mother.

How is the Apple TV app related to the comment? There's no subscription needed to use the app and it isn't tied to one service.

You weren't the person that I responded to so, frankly, I don't care what you're referring to. Additionally, movie rentals are already covered by a prior agreement. The article you mention even says that Canal+ and other vi

Video rentals are already covered by an agreement that existed prior to the change in the Amazon app. The article you posted even mentions that Canal+ and other video services were already using this which is an option where you can allow

What does that have to do with anything? You never said anything about paying money. I don't have to pay anything to run Mint or Mario Run on my phone so what's your point?

So then your argument is just anti-Apple and not actually based on any principles...

You can't buy Amazon Prime through the app. What people are referring to is the fact that existing subscriptions are allowed to renew without the 30% cut. People are misframing that as an exception for Amazon even though there are se

That's not a special deal, though. Just because a reporter didn't know about doesn't mean it was special for Amazon. Your own article even mentions other providers that were already using that and, most importantly, it only a

>Apple have hundreds of billions in cash do you actually believe they're going to put ads in their services? That's irrelevant. The issue in question is one of principle, not whether or not someone is in a certain position at t

What do you mean by that? The rules apply to Amazon just the same as to anyone else.

Why don't they just do the same with Apple, then? Force them to have some basic ability to load programs. You can even make it easy for users and put an icon on the home screen. To make it obvious that you can load apps and programs fo

Doesn't that assume that all these IT departments and corporations are using the anti-virus software in question? I feel like most AV software vendors were aware of the ARM transition and would know to look for the new Universal Binari

by dpkonofa 6y ago
I'm not sure I follow. Why would an anti-virus product accidentally flagging their Universal Binary block them from releasing a native Apple Silicon version? Of all the Macs in use, I'd have to imagine that only a small percentage

As someone who watches the show and read the comics, I agree with that wholeheartedly but it doesn't detract from my enjoyment of the show. I just have to treat them as 2 separate things. Much like Walking Dead where the comic is aweso

I watched 2 episodes of it and thought the acting was terrible. It reminded me a lot of Battlestar Galactica. That being said, I have several friends that rant and rave about it and keep telling me to try it again.

I love The Boys and, especially, how gory it is specifically to make a point. It reminds me a lot of Verhoeven and RoboCop. That being said, Amazon doesn't have any other good shows that I'm willing to tune into. Sneaky Pete was a

We started watching Episode 1 and I hated it and we turned it off. It turns out that the part that we were watching was the advertisement that was put together by the creator and it's supposed to be terrible. After watching it a bit lo

I feel like "The Morning Show", "For All Mankind", and "Ted Lasso" are 3 shows that I would put solidly in the "great" category so I don't see how you can say that two "good" shows woul

You can already AirPlay audio from a Mac or iPhone device, including Spotify. You can also do it from a PC but it requires something like Airfoil.

>but Apple seems determined not to have me as a customer. What do you mean by that? It sounds like the Homepod, or even a pair of HomePods Mini, would be perfect for your situation.

You don't need the code. Just hook it up to your network and use Wireshark or something similar to see when it phones home.
