the "iPhone 8" should be called iPhone 7S and next year's phone should be 8. This year's names throws everything off. Well, that's my piece.

The 8 shouldn't even be called the 8. It's clearly a 7S, an incremental upgrade. Why the hell did Apple go iPhone 7, 8, 10 are they fucken copying Windows version progressions for no reason now? (yes I know that it's the tenth anniversary of the iPhone or some other numerology but 8 -> 10 is just as dumb as 7S -> 10)

I mean, they did warn that they weren't refreshing their desktops until 2019, but lol at the biggest market cap corporation in all of human history playing it safe still with their product lines when they have room for risk. Since the '90s they've always been running lean for a company of that size and wealth. I understand that it's better than being enterprise wasteful but sometimes they act like a business with anorexia

RIP iPhone SE2 Comment: The latest rumor is not the iPhone SE 2 many of us want to see quote:Sadly, today’s report doesn’t, either. The language of the piece seemed to give some hope, making liberal reference to it as an iPhone SE successor.

they had better call it the iPhone 9 to reflect its lower power and because the iPhone X had the same nonsensical jumping to v. 10 cargo cult that Windows 10 / Win 10 Mobile / Android 10 all embody yes I know the reason why they had to skip Windows 9, it doesn’t make it any better lmao I forgot BlackBerry 10 quote:Android 10 joins Windows 10, iPhone X, Galaxy S10, Galaxy Note 10, Honor 10, Sony Xperia 10, Mac OS X, BlackBerry 10 and countless other 10s in the tech sphere. It's so bland that it should have been rejected even as a codename. From most corporations, this would have been an eyeroll moment. From Google, it's a travesty.

The Management posted:Facebook releases a 100 MB update on a weekly basis to one billion clients. Apple is paying to send 100 petabytes of data every week just for the Facebook app (which gives apple zero money in return). Sounds like if anything Apple isn't doing their due diligence by permitting lovely bloated apps just because they're excreted by rival tech titans https://quellish.tumblr.com/post/126712999812/how-on-earth-the-facebook-ios-application-is-so https://blog.timac.org/2017/0410-analysis-of-the-facebook-app-for-ios-v-87-0/ It's 454.6 MB at present, by the way

https://twitter.com/pierce/status/1295382846341701635 cremnob posted:mfs trying to start a color revolution? it's time for Apple to cut off Epic's head and put it on a pike for everyone to see. that's how you put down an uprising. the fracas with Hey was pretty big but they ended up resolving things with Apple and then WWDC happened so everyone forgot about it until now. Even after Epic goes down in flames there's going to be more. I suppose you can try to make a tortured analogy about Tim Sweeney being Guaidó and dhh being John Bolton Jimmy Carter posted:everyone with any grievance towards the App Store as a platform is projecting onto this spat and it's incredibly annoying. This probably highlights a more general phenomenon about corporations getting so big that they basically are unchallengeable except by another entity with deep pockets. Yeah people are projecting, but those people and/or businesses don't have the resources to mount their own flashy PR-manipulated legal campaign. Epic is definitely profiteering by tapping into a preexisting well of discontent, but what are the discontented gonna do? Tweet more? File a radar? Send Timb an email? It's a hot summer and everyone in America is stuck indoors so might as well fight the power (what power? any power) while you're at it. The Color Revolution analogy earlier is apt. Putting aside Epic for a second, the wave of third party developer disgruntlement superficially resembles any other antiestablishment tension that's boiling over in society right now. Sure, odds are there's very, very few devs who are missing the rent because of boo hoo 30%, but it's hard to feel sympathetic towards Apple as their stock climbs to ever higher records. And whether you agree with Apple or not, they are unquestionably an authority that engages in forceful actions, and presently such authorities aren't exactly popular. If it wasn't Epic, it'd just be someone else fanning the flames. And regardless who wins this dumb company fight- well, the mob at least gets to see some action and the illusion of things happening.

I’m sure Steam or UbiSoft or loving EA aren’t great platform keepers to deal with either, but you tend not to hear the same nightmares as with Apple. I’m not saying that Apple is inherently worse but I think their stebe jobes “my way or you’re outta here buster” act leads to a lot of unnecessarily bad feelings and optics. So it’s not just the 30% cut, it’s also how much of a petty tyrant you look like in the process and how much of a hypocrite you look like too. Like I remember a big viral story a few months back had nothing to do with 30% or payments dick-waving, some poor schmo just had their account locked for weeks without explanation: https://rambo.codes/posts/2019-11-05-apple-has-locked-me-out-of-my-developer-account
