Meanwhile, the Porsche CEO recently wrote an opinion piece for USA Today where he writes "Porsche thinks you’ll want your next car to be electric" https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2019/06/

I agree 100% with this as someone living in Thailand with full time help I would take that personal time given back to me in exchange for a nice luxury car any day.

You should just get the new Macbook Air thats being referenced in the article. Proper keyboard, No stupid touch bar, but still has Touch ID. Great machine.

Yeah after a year getting used to it I thought the same. Then I went back and used my old Macbook Air while it was getting repaired (for keyboard issues, of course). After using the old MBA keyboard for more than 30 seconds I changed my min

Well we're already 3 years in since the new generation USB-C only Macbook Pro came out. Let's call it 7 years for a total of 10. Not putting a lone USB-A port on it was an act of extreme arrogance imho

I'm calling it - USB-A will still be around going strong 10 years from now. Take a stroll through a BIC Camera in Tokyo. How many USB-A accessories are still for sale? It's about 99% of the stock. I'm sure it's the same

Of course, it's just one step further to what Apple want. Make MacBooks so much more efficient and powerful than PC competitors that theres no competition, then force everyone to use the App Store where they can get their 30% cut of an

Doesn't work with my Anker USB-C to USB-C Apparently because the GoPro is USB 3.0 not 3.1? I'm not sure. Can you link me to what cable you're using?

by pentae 7y ago
I know tons of developers clinging onto their old Macbooks who refuse to buy the new generation and many are changing to PC's. My GoPro has a USB-C port on it. My USB-C to USB-C data cable won't recognise it on my MBP. Have to use

They also just put the price up of the plus plan $20 a year. I already pay for iCloud so I don't know why I'm still a customer really. Laziness I suppose. I trust Apple with my data a lot more also.

They have a monopoly on the hundreds of millions of people who have an iPhone, which are typically the wealthiest mobile consumers (Sorry Android guys). If I have a software service I need to deliver to my customers smartphone, and they hap

The Sony Rx-100 mk V or mk VI will suit your needs perfectly. It’s pricy but generally considered to be the most camera you can pack into a compact. The VI has the only 35-200mm equivalent zoom on a compact which makes it perfect for sporti

Mining is such a big industry in Australia and has been for such a long time that dirty coal money has influenced the politicians in government for a long time now.

> Apple was basically playing the "whoa, we don't sell apps, we just make an app store. They buy apps from the developers" card. This is technically true. How is it technically true? Apple collects the payment and takes a

Agreed. And I see the same counterpoint being trotted out for a case against EV vehicles. "Cobolt mining bad!" but I suppose oil drilling and fracking isn't?

Yeah, I guess the same tactic didn't work for North Korea, right? Oh, wait..

No they don't. They say so in the first few seconds of the video.

Not just the 5G modem, but the current intel modems are worse on their new higher priced models compared to previous generations, I'm sure everyone at Apple HQ is panicking about that. They are selling a $1500 phone with an inferior mo

I've always wondered if a reasonable cap on child support/alimony would help - such as the median US income. This could possibly make wealthy men more likely to have more children and also potentially help keep families together.

Tims a miser, which is great for supply chain management but when it filters down into the hiring and the end product, well we're already beginning to see the results of that in the sales numbers.

Well as you said yourself, people should be able to side load whatever they want outside of the official store if they are so willing. The general consensus is that their authoritarian approach on the App Store is a positive for consumers a

iOS deliberately has no notification options available for PWAs and various other shortcomings to push people into the app store. I imagine internal enterprise apps need those.
