So $500M global fine minus $300M already paid equals $200M more. Throw in a waiver for no more suits on 4G anywhere win the world and sign. Or am I missing something??

That's the problem in a nutshell ... there apparently isn't an approved texting program for secure government communications. There's certainly a secure email system, and approved secure phone lines, but no texting platform for sensitive discuss…

And then there’s the enterprise bulk purchases. Companies will usually order whatever is cheapest. We buy around 500-1000 SE’s per year, with a 2-3 year turnover timeline. If you don’t like what they’re offering, you can go BYOD and get a $25/month…

Apple is a global company. As such, it should use place names that are internationally recognized. If a particular country wants to unilaterally use their own nickname for a place, fill your boots. But you can’t make it change for the rest of the wo…

As long as Banks don’t compromise the security of the system or start mining data. I like the tokenized system where the merchants don’t get to see my actual card number, store it, then lose is in a data breach.

Qualcomm snagged a few ex-Apple engineers to create their ARM chip. Apple could flip the script and do the same. Yes, I know there was an extra layer of abstraction with Nuvia. Same thing applies here. Some Qualcomm engineers could branch out and st…

What I also like about this fitting underneath the Mini is that it lifts the air intake up off the desk a bit. Thus reducing dust intake.

Right... Time to finally retire my 2013 27” iMac and replace it with this and a Studio Display.

If Apple wants to assert its right to a piece of third party transactions in Europe because it owns the platform, then countries can claim their right to a piece of their citizens transactions. It cuts both ways.

There is only so much one can do. You can’t stop a sports store from selling baseball bats because they can be used to assault people. But a sports store can’t exactly market them as weapons either.

I’m waiting for the new Mini to come out to replace my 27” intel iMac. I don’t want to drop $3k+ on a Mini and Studio Display, but I want retina scaling and I REALLY don’t want a 24” screen. So what’s a guy to do?The absence of the 27” iMac is likel…

I’ve long felt that Apple and their privacy first stance should just stay out of the advertising business. The revenue is just not worth the antitrust attention it draws.

I was hoping for an Air to Air comparison. That’s likely to have better parity than a Pro to Pro comparison, and by extension, better adoption. Pros have more specific needs whereas Air users have more general workflows that iPads would have solutio…

The tax man could argue my malicious compliance because I use every letter of the law I can to pay the least amount of taxes possible. Anything more is fiscally irresponsible. And I still fill out a paper return, which they probably don’t like becau…
