  • visionOS 26 at WWDC rumored to have a big emphasis on gaming

    Apple should treat gaming with the same gravitas as TV+. Which means getting exclusive content on board. Acquire some larger studios, make content that goes well with the Apple brand and reposition the TV product as a capable gaming system (M4 Pro powered) under a new name.

  • Trump may have added 25% iPhone tariff specifically to punish Tim Cook

    If that's true the tariff won't stand up in Court. You can't tariff people you don't like. The Constitution has a thing about Equal treatment. 
    If one thing has been proven is that the US has very weak filters in place to keep a democracy, a democracy. I fear at some point a civil war may be the only option for true and lasting change. God forbid that ever happens.

    That corrupt-to-the-bone man child needs to spend the rest of his days in jail, and with him many more of his family members and allies. America is a mess.

    Oh no what would one of the richest most profile companies in the world do? How about stop using cheaper labor and move manufacturing back to the country that buys 40% of your products and oh wait makes 12% less profits..   I don't know how people are not pressuring companies like Apple to focus on the people instead of the profits.. I blame the Stockmarket. I t made us forget why we do what we do.

    You clearly have zero knowledge of cost and supply chains. First, this transition will take more than 6-8 years to complete. Moving a very complex production chain to the US will take years, from building factories to overcoming regulations and hiring and retaining talent (which isn't even there!). Then, most of the parts and raw materials will have to be imported, oh no wait - tariffs...sourced from the US. Most of the raw materials aren't even there. Anyway, basically you end up with semi-empty factories because no one wants to do the work or labor is too expensive, a lack of raw materials and parts, and $5000 phones. 
    You are clinging on a past that no longer exists and doesn't make any sense today.

    In less than a week, Apple has proved to be extremely vulnerable. 

    Its supply chain is under attack by tariff's.
    Its flagship product is under attack by its former star employee.
    Its AI is nowhere to be found.

    Apple is under enormous pressure and let's see how M. Cook can address it. 
    There's a bunch of kids on this forum disliking everything they don't want to hear versus what they don't agree with. You are right, Apple is in a tough spot. Why would any adult user of this forum 'disagree' with a simple fact like this? No, instead they 'dislike' the comment because it's not the reality distortion field they feel comfortable with. That attitude feels very MAGA to me.
