take it to the appel store because they usually give you a completely new laptop for the 2016/2017s because of the keyboard and monitor cable issues lol

the keyboards will keep getting shittier while apple insists that this time they've fixed it. it doesn't matter. every apple fan will buy one regardless.

apple, make a touchscreen thats a keyboard and put a physical overlay so people can lift the whole thing off and wipe it down but have real keys that dont stop when a hair enters the case

it is brilliant for apple to make the se2 "8 with upgraded internals"

there is a good valid reason to want the previous-gen cheaperphone (it is the objectively correct size and everything else is too big), with such a se2 the only differentiator will be "its cheaper"

are they finally making a phone with a home button again? i destroyted my iphone 6 and have been using 7, lack of headphone jack sucks but at least it still hsa a home button. everytime i've fiddled with a new X/XS phone i feel like a confused boomer and i hate them

im not sure this is correct fyi. looking at 1blockerapp twitter the guy says that the new mac version will be free if youve bought the ios version. i havent seen anything about what happens if you bought the current mac version

oh. well, thanks for that heads up, I’ve just been repeating wrong stuff. 1blockerX is the best iOS blocker, so get that anyway

this is actually a cool idea, can’t wait for Asus to make a $5k, six kilo ROG suitcase with it in six months.
