If you watch this ad back to back with the classic "1984" Mac ad, I found it hard not to feel that Apple has become the "Big Brother" it once despised.

Tangent, but related; I wish Apple would now stop shaving mm off the iPad's thickness and start improving battery life. It's been officially "up to 10 hours" since 2010 - 14 years. I think it's the only compute devi

For lots of uses cases, if the end output meets user expectations, does it really matter if it was interpolated from simulated data? For many use cases (editing old family photos etc), I'm increasingly not caring. I don't need p

It was kind of a non-issue at the time, for the simple reason the DVD format used by all the players only supported PAL 25fps or NTSC 29.976 IIRC. There was very few "official" ways to get native 24fps content into the home until

Really? As someone who grew up with PAL, we were pining for your 60fps NTSC output, especially in fast games like beatem-ups etc (PAL is 50). I still remember the first time I saw an imported Japanese PS1 playing Teken 2, and how much smoot

For Windows, I probably agree too. Like others here though I had a soft spot for Windows 2000, everything felt slightly more refined in win2k. Personally I'd probably take some version of Mac OS 8/9 as peak mouse driven GUI design

Probably why I used the word "most" here. Residuals matter, even to the manufacturer. If residuals plummet too much, their lease accounting can go red too. Lease rates have to account for a future predicted value of the vehicle, a

The flip side of all this is a used Tesla can be a really great option right now for some folks - bulk of depreciation is over, maintenance/running costs are some of the lowest in the industry (ignoring EV insurance costs I guess, bu

Most car manufacturers take some efforts to try and ensure residuals stay reasonable, otherwise customers will be less keen to repeat buy for obvious reasons. Setting prices correctly at launch is key for this. What Tesla did, which histori

While I think there is far to go in development terms, and I wouldn't recommend buying it either, my experiences on 12.3.3 are not identical to this at all. Looks like the free trial cars are currently split across v12.3.2.1/12.

A shame the author doesn't mention what FSD release the car he used was on? There is significant differences in performance now, especially the cars on the 12.3.x branches that have the new end-to-end route planner etc. It would be my

Agreed, the reporting on this has been so poor. The wording of the rules and how we know Apple has enforced past similar rules makes it pretty likely to me this is for apps similar to the n64/snes app on the Switch Nintendo gives to th
