That's okay as well, the problem is, how do you do this correctly? You cannot store it in the cloud because that's a bad idea. Where else? If you give someone a key to the device, how does the device itself enforce a time-limited

They're not safe, nothing is but they're harder because of the secure enclave and so on. Are you going to tell me that it is a good idea to force Apple to offer security bypasses to allow said repairs to Touch ID that should be pe

Does anyone actually know for sure if Apple ever updated the APFS preview code since WWDC seed? I feel like we're like 2-3 years behind of Apple right now on the status of APFS for macOS. The fact that it's booting right now on iO

Except MS reinstalls them on each update for me. Yes, it is difficult to get them uninstalled forever. They should've never been in there in the first place, that's what forced ads mean.

You've basically answered his answer. You can't ask someone what they're talking about and then go on to describe three situations that answered the questions. It's not FUD when it is a known fact. None of these things s

I don't see how fragmenting CryEngine benefits that much considering they're all on the same licensed CryEngine. Amazon paid $50m for the CryEngine and Amazon said Lumberyard is free to use with their AWS services. I think it make

It's native ARM version of Windows 10 and for UWP apps, as well as any x86 apps recompiled for ARM. The rest of the classic x86 32-bit apps will run via the emulation, like Rosetta on macOS in the past when running PPC apps on Intel. T

Batteries are not predictable, they degrade based on the chemistry stored within it, they lose charges based on usage, temperature, and so on. You may have a great battery life in the warm climate but go where it is cold, your battery life

First of all, Apple is making more money from Macs than iPads. In the last quarter, they had ~$6B in revenue from Macs versus $4.2B from iPads (~$7B same quarter last year). Are you seriously suggesting that Apple should drop that kind of m

TB3 is the first protocol to officially support eGPU by Intel. As long as Apple doesn't block it outright in the EFI firmware, it should support eGPUs by default. If not, then Apple's the blame.

I'm curious you think it is "obvious"? I've never heard anyone say this of Ive until now with your comment. Jobs did make sure Apple has no power to ever get rid of Ive for any reason, ensuring him an unbreakable tenure.

I don't think this is meant solely for data centers, more like offices, branches and home where it'd be cheaper to simply replace the switch/NICs than to rewire the entire place where they're in the walls. The savings ar
