Do you mean if I download Chrome for iOS and use it to purchase a Netflix subscription through their website? I’m quite sure Apple has a general purpose web browser exception for a number of store rules, though I don’t know if that is expli

Have you tried turning “match frame rate” on?

The jittering is caused by the Apple TV defaulting to 60p frame rate for all content. But if you turn on “match frame rate” the jittering goes away.

The differentiation: was the app was acquired through the App Store?

It's not "in-app" content.

> Having 3rd party stores will not prevent you for using the Apple App Store exclusively. It will if enough developers flee to whichever store has the cheapest rate and the fewest restrictions. It’s a race to the bottom and the consumer

Because they aren’t necessary for electric motors at anything other than the most extreme applications. They add weight, complexity and expense for no good reason. (A dual motor design could simulate the benefits of two gears by having diff

What’s special about selling a 13% larger battery pack for a much higher price?

That would make sense if apps wrote themselves and signed their own agreements with app stores.

Is that Apple's fault?

I think it's strange that you don't want me to have the product I want to have. Nobody is forcing you to buy an Apple product, and there are plenty of stellar alternative products from numerous other brands.

Why? Because having Apple in control of the device is valuable to me. VERY valuable. It's the big reason why I willingly pay more for Apple phones. If I wanted control over my phone, I don't need to "demand" it. I wo

For me it’s because that approval process is highly valuable to me as a consumer, and especially as the family member of other consumers. I happily pay more per device to have Apple as the systems administrator for my device. If I want soft

Common sense ties them together. While the Fortnite app was in violation of terms, it wasn’t the app itself which violated the terms—it was the corporation.

In the conventional sense that the US ultimately failed. Yes they managed to blow up a lot of things and kill a lot of people, but it's difficult to argue that US national interests have been improved, let alone with any durability. In

> Last I remember it was the US invading Afghanistan/Iraq and not the other way around. Which means the US had to do all the expensive logistics work too.

And it's not like much of that US budget is spent wisely. A lot of it is just make-work programs and military industrial complex expenditures to appease various congresspeople and constituencies.

To say the least. But it's nonetheless a direct quote from Epic Games' lawyer Katherine Forrest. I agree it's a dubious claim, but that's what Epic told the court. “It will no longer be a usable engine,” Forrest said. “

You probably misread the title. Prepair is the name of the company whose logo Apple is filing a trademark objection.

It’s not a case, Apple isn’t suing anyone.

by sjwright 6y ago
Apple isn’t suing and this isn’t going to court. It’s just a bit of paperwork that will be ignored.

Apple didn’t sue Woolworths, they just filed an opposition to the trademark to IP Australia. Same sort of thing as is happening here.

Apple isn’t suing and there isn’t a case. It’s just a filing to the trademark office.

IMHO it’s not sex that’s the real problem for teenagers, but rather extreme sexualisation. And that doesn’t require nudity.

The worst plausible answer couldn’t possibly be worse than pumping it directly into the air we breathe, as we do with diesel and coal.

Nothing is trustless. It just distributes trust which makes it harder but by no means impossible for your trust to become misplaced.

The license fee would be based upon the method of counting installed base. If Adobe wants to change the method of counting, Dolby should be allowed to change the fee.
