Yeah, as you say, the key point is moderation, always. I find it extremely unlikely that evolution got us to like foods that are supposedly that bad for us. Our palate is actually …

Yeah, I had a pair of MDR-V700 back in the day, and they broke in about 2-3 years max, without any abuse, just randomly. I gave them to a friend who "quick-fixed" them with a screw…

Yes, I think they changed something in the new iOS; they are trying to get people to swap old devices. I had issues with swapping before, but with the latest iOS, it has become ver…

Well, it's my observation as well, but the point is that it's not the first time this happened. In fact, we have records from not that long ago that at some point climate became co…

POS Apple just made me upgrade my iPhone Mini to 26 so that I could pair my new Apple Watch, because I just broke the old one. I wasn't sure I wanted another Apple Watch, but it wa…

Yeah, in my first job I was an Apple technician for a company that supplied DICOM solutions to radiologist, both in hospitals and standalone. I thought it was weird they spent so m…

That's pretty good. I think the sales of monitors have become slow overall, so now they can focus on higher-end stuff to make some money even if it's for niche products at first. I…

The animations and layout of Liquid Glass aren't that bad, but it is really ugly in many ways. They could have just made some layout improvements without trashing everything visual…

Musk is leading the build of the biggest objects we have ever sent to space. It does give him some sort of aura that is hard to dismantle, let's be honest. He can do and say a lot …

Pretty much, and yes, this is not a desirable path for progress. But communists have an absurd love for bureaucracy, and their need to control is unlimited, so they'll argue to the…

You are being idiotic. One hour of running is almost half of my minimum energy expenditure. All the other movements in a typical day only account for about half that, unless I make…

I'm not contesting that AI will become worthwhile on local hardware at some point. With software optimization and hardware costs falling over time, that's pretty much a given. But …

Most definitely Windows, but that's basically a factor of their past hegemony. Hilariously, you are going to argue that Apple is good because they sell a lot of stuff, but somehow …

Comment #47022819
Well, I agree with that if we are talking about the general population. But Apple does have some niches it serves very well that make the prices worth it for some. But of course, t…

People just like to hate on Windows. The home version has some issues and limitations, but if you are willing to invest in the Pro version, it's mostly fine, really. There are stil…

Yep. Basically the iPhone was very good at the start because Jobs smelled the future with his legendary intuition, but it was still a flawed product. They won because it took compe…

That was basically the whole point of it. Apple makes money selling hardware; they have a vested interest in making things slower/worse to incentivize people to buy newer hardware.…

Finder has to be used with the Miller columns; otherwise, it doesn't make sense. But since the switch to the new filesystem, it's kinda slow and annoying. They have built some prop…

The whole window management system is an exercise in contrarianism. They basically chose to do things in the opposite manner of their competitor and mostly against what intuition w…

I guess that if I ask you for a good burger, you will point me at a McDonald's. They have so many customers, truly a marker of quality.

Local AI is very limited and mostly a waste of time/capital compared to subscribing to access the good stuff provided by the key players. But by all means, throw more money at Appl…

That's just the typical Apple distortion field. I have been using Apple devices and supporting many of their users for over 20 years, and they are all extremely invested in their c…

Well, those people are resistant to facts and logic. But when you think about it, their survival depends on it, so it makes perfect sense. Most of those making those arguments have…
