iOS 11 sucks. It makes the games I'm trying to play during bathroom breaks run like trash and heat up my phone. It's a loving 7 plus, there's like one more year till the planned obsolescence.

I asked him why, since iTunes knew there was a problem, couldn’t it just do wherever it was logging out and back in again accomplished without making the user have to do it. naturally the response was a blank stare as if logging out and back in is a perfectly valid and normal thing that users are supposed to do and he couldn’t comprehend the concept of doing anything other than throwing out a mysterious error and making them struggle to figure it out. iTunes is staffed by morons and is a flaming piece of poo poo. most Apple employees learn pretty quickly that filing bugs against iTunes is pointless because they never get fixed. they disappear into a void where you can’t see them and assigned to a robot and no one ever looks at them.

the problem is really that WiFi has no real link management. all enterprise level routers do some huge hacks to make sure your phone successfully works while transitioning between access points and selects the right AP to bind to.

I wouldn't even say its that. its more that wifi link quality is subjective. someone may be ok w/ shoddy wifi if it means they don't have to use cell data where I would rather use cell data if its faster regardless of wifi quality

there is a real serious problem with apple and making things thinner, like the design team all have a collective condition because we are good on the thickness factor. like there is no reason to make phones or macbooks any thinner for the rest of human history. stop it jony

actually there are AT&T data plans where you get like 3GB/month and after that it's "unlimited" data capped to poo poo-tier speeds
