I'm sure that's really noticeable when using the phone.

sure, when your use case for the phone is "running benchmarks to show how fast my phone is", that's why batterygate/lifecycle management was such a scandal

I hear people complaining about their Iphones getting slow way more often. It's such a big issue, the press made a huge amount of hay of theories about intentional slowdown with new Ios versions. Also, the whole batterygate thing that was just mentioned.

more notable i think is that there’s basically no discernible difference in performance between my 7 plus and my xr despite the a12 being ostensibly like twice as fast or whatever. at least the cars in grid look really nice

apple cares about privacy because they figure it will be a key point of differentiation between themselves and android, especially as they become heavily involved in medical devices

I think the moon is made of cheese. [UPDATE: Apparently people have been to the moon and only found rocks. Apollo missions even apparently brought some back, and they're in museums and so forth. I don't think this means the Moon is entirely made of rocks, and frankly rocks are boring, and there could still be a lot of cheese there too.] Linguica fucked around with this message at 19:13 on Dec 11, 2018 |

nasa no longer goes to the moon. so i think it's safe to assume that it's now made of cheese, even if it wasn't before
