Same thing that they've done with the new Wifi toggle on the quick menu on iOS 11. You CANNOT turn off Wifi. It just "Disables it temporarily". They do this so that when you are home and your phones plugged in and on do not d

I just went through the same experience trying to set up paid ads. My account was suspended for "suspicious activity" and despite sending in a photo of my credit card with my thumb over the first 12 digits they still denied me. In

I was considering it a few years back myself, but then I went and spent some time in Malaysia and couldn't fall in love with it. I ended up in Thailand and much prefer it here. I recommend spending some time in Malaysia before you take

May I ask what kind of work you do where you're meeting hundreds of actual MBP users? I am part of a big digital nomad community and the new MBP has received tons of criticism, and I believe rightfully so.

The worst part about this, is Apple will throw their hands up in the air and say "See? The PC Business is dying. We need to double down on making Macbooks more like iPads and focus on the iPhone business" Rather than realising it&

Ahh the app store. It's just like the internet, except the websites are mini apps, and a mega corporation gets to control whats on it. And takes 30% of everything you make. Brilliant.

I Agree. However, I'm not the average American male. It seems to me like 'he' is getting a bit of a raw deal while simultaneously being blamed for everything these days.

So if I read the article correctly, the average American male has lost his job due to economic forces as well as gender equality, but it's also his fault and his responsibility to change. Seems fair.

I think the Author of the article misses the point. It's slightly more useful for consumers, but once this becomes commoditized and scaled out there will be massive cost savings compared to hiring a handful of checkout staff, and this

See how much you love that keyboard a year from now once it's built up enough dust under there.

Seems like a great way to stop the Hackintosh movement once every new Mac has this.

I remember when learning to scuba dive we were told to walk a similar same way when doing a shore dive - slide your feet forward and explore with your toes so you don't step on something you shouldn't like coral, sharp rocks or a

In hindsight the best decisions I've made this year regarding the enjoyment of my Apple devices was not upgrading from iOS 10, and not upgrading to High Sierra. I really want to buy new Apple products and enjoy them but the company doe

To be fair, becoming a quarter trillion dollar store of 'digital gold' is a hell of a pivot.

But then if this was true, that would mean the real bitcoin supply is actually worth more than it is now.

I can't wrap my head around this. Who is silly enough to sell bitcoins for 'worthless' Tether?

Last time I checked Amazon didn't remove the headphone jack from my phone or my USB-A port from my new laptop either. Doesn't get any more evil than that, really.

If the rollouts anything like the utter debacle that was iOS 11, they shouldn't be forcing major OS updates down peoples throats.

Agreed. Whats the chances that happy, healthy, stable single people are more likely to want to get married, and attract people that would want to marry them?

So Jony, if your goal is to get design out of the way, why the notch?
