  • iPadOS 19 rumored to get more Mac-like in productivity push

    If Apple wanted to give the iPad Pros a real sales boost, make them capable of booting into either iPad OS or Mac OS at the user's discretion, which Apple Silicon can do. 
    That would be a terrible mistake IMHO.
    First of all, it creates a terrible user experience, having to constantly boot between OS’es based on your use case.
    Secondly it would create the narrative “we don’t know what the iPad is about so we give you all the option”. No, instead the iPad has its own positioning and the operating system is designed around that. 
    In such case the better option would be to phase out iPadOS entirely and make macOS more tablet friendly, and make that the standard. Which will never happen too.

    The problem with the iPad Pro is that it competes too much with Apple’s laptops in what it enables, except art (drawing on the tablet) and perhaps a few other things. This means that now the perception is that the iPad Pro is a more limited, more cumbersome expression of a laptop, where it’s harder to “get shit done”. To me the iPad Pro was by far the most disappointing Apple purchase ever. 

    The better product to me is the regular iPad; it comes at a lower price point compared to a desktop based product and clearly positions itself as a light computing / media consumption device. It’s amazing for that.

    They would need to overcome the challenge of a touch-first requirement. In my opinion, there are way too many gestures and concepts on iPadOS with the most recent failed addition being Stage Manager. I bet most of us aren’t using it because it’s too complex and pulls people out of their flow-state.

  • Trump gives Apple a giant break with wide-ranging tariff exemptions

    This ‘president’ is a disaster to the world. He has no real strategy, economists are baffled by his idiotic actions and constant flip-flopping. 

    Even more so, his entire corrupt administration have clearly benefited from their own actions through insider trading. They belong in jail and their assets being taken. Unfortunately in the USA, the rich are untouchable. You can buy yourself out of the law there.

  • How and where Trump's new tariffs affect Apple

    I wouldn’t be surprised if the corrupt tech bros get exempt in a back-alley deal.
