New iPad Pro only works with the new Apple Pencil Pro. Which is the same price as the 2nd Gen.

So anyone with a current Pro and a 2nd gen pencil needs to upgrade both. That’s insane.

Now if that isn’t the shadiest Cook move I don’t know what is. What’s next? Do I need a special Remote Pro with the new Apple TV? Are we really doing “Pro only” accessories?? Is that where we are these days???

All 4 Apple pencils still being sold as of writing this. Yes even the first gen that’s nearly 10 years old. And despite 3 others available.

So much for tight Apple product lines.

Mass grave 🤣🤣

Jack Dorsey. In a life long mission to look like a pencil. Steady progress I see.

This dude woke up and decided, blood.

The realtors will find a way to make it bad news, don't worry.

Yeah totally worried for Ryujinx. I don’t see how they can survive.

I track their progress by seeing GitHub commits…

What?

LOL. Just trying to take a reasoned take to the situation bro. Every OS siphons user data Einstein. Yes even Linux (distros like Ubuntu do). A VPN won’t save you. It’s cute you think adding a lock on your room’s door will keep people out of your house.

Good luck in your travels.

They also said that they would divulge more about the huge critical fault they found “in a couple of weeks” which was like 6 months ago. Colour me skeptical.

LOL. They built the entire fucking OS. If they want to siphon my data, they can. Without anyone knowing. Also everything is linked to my Apple ID. So what’s the point? They already know everything and have tied it all together with my unique IDs, device serial numbers and the payment data associated. What’s the point the of running FaceTime over a VPN? They already know everything…

At some point you have to stay calm and think rationally.

Now if Twitter or some random app I downloaded from GitHub can bypass my VPN, then yeah, that’s a pretty big concern as they currently have nothing on me.

I’m going to ignore the “corpos aren’t your friend” because FUCKING DUUUHHHHHH

What do you mean don’t let you? https://screenrant.com/samsung-galaxy-watch-4-use-with-iphone-compatible-explained/

Same shit as with Apple on Android, basic functionality, nothing more.

So you blame Apple for Android having basic functionality with an aWatch but then blame Apple for a Samsung Watch having basic functionality on iOS? So it’s just Apple’s fault all the way around then?

I guess you also missed the part where I say all big tech is the same? And are all basically shit? Or you just didn’t read that far…

The one that irks me is how some apps that have already established a connection can ignore the VPN. I always wondered about that, like if I enabled my VPN, what happens to existing connections. One thing I couldn’t find is what apps can do this? If it’s third party apps, that’s pretty serious. But if it’s just Apple apps or default ones, that’s a far less of a concern seeing as Apple seems to bypass VPN anyway for its in-house wares.

It sucks really. I would have preferred open source projects don’t shut down. I guess it is what it is.

Cheers 🥂

They doubled rent, food and just about everything in the last two years. Coming off massive layoffs and a two year lockdown that saw most of the service industry without jobs.

This is why I moved to Emby. I use a different player on all my devices and all my content is HEVC or H264 with AAC or DTS so never an issue playing. No need for premium either.

Jellyfin is on fumes. They made a call for help a couple of years ago but since then, haven’t had much of any. They found a critical bug last build I think and where supposed to disclose the details around the end of last year and it’s May now. No news.

There’s a ton broken and no one to really fix it. I remember posting about a bug and a long standing contributor just basically blamed the scraper and said well that scraper is shit.

I got the sense most of the older crew just gate keep but don’t actually work towards making the thing better.

Lmao. People really are just out there on the raggedy edge. The watch communicates with a shit ton of sensors and other tech only found on Apple devices. Also, last I checked, I can’t run an Android Watch on iPhone fully, there is always a slew of things that don’t work or kinda work. Maybe Apple didn’t want that experience for its users.

You need a Mac to build Apple apps because why in the actual fuck would you use a PC to do that!? What’s the point?

I’m not defending Apple as they clearly gate a lot of shit but the complaining about the dumbest shit ever doesn’t make them Nazis. Also, Google, Samsung, Microsoft, all of them are the same level of asshole. Big Tech is trash. This is not new news.

Uhhhh, source? Those are pretty bold claims to just casually toss out
