Apple is working on the new A17 chipset, but it may be restricted to the Pro handsets, leaving the regular iPhone in the slower, colder, climate: "The leaker’s latest information is unlikely to go down well … [Read more...] about Apple Loop: iPhone 15 Pro Disappointment, iPhone 14 Crash Advice, Embarrassing MacOS Problems

Two Thai activists are reportedly in serious condition after staging a hunger strike over Thailand’s lèse-majesté law. The young women activists, 21 year old Tantawan Tuatulanon “Tawan,” and 23 year old Orawan Phupong “Bam,” were accused of insulting the monarchy after holding up a poster in a mall that allegedly defamed the monarchy. The poster’s writing asked whether people thought the royal motorcade created trouble for the country’s residents since it created road blockages and traffic jams. According to The Guardian , Tawan and Bam are on strike to demand the lese majeste law be repealed, along with other changes that include the courts allowing activists to be released on bail. Both of them started refusing water and food on Saturday, January 18, 2023 and were both hospitalised two days later.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Apple just blamed its weakest quarter in years on forces outside its control. But something else could be behind Apple’s 5% drop in sales for the most recent quarter. Apple is violating one of the most basic requirements for growth: customers will switch to the product that offers them the most value. Based on listening to my undergraduate students this week, many are feeling like fools for being locked in — via the iPhone — to Apple’s “ecosystem.” They would rather own a product that costs less and works better. Apple’s business is dependent on essentially jailing its customers within its ecosystem. The iPhone is a 15 year old product — that accounted for 56% of Apple’s revenues in the latest quarter. It competes in a declining smartphone industry — shipments were down 18% in the latest quarter, according to the Wall Street Journal . Apple’s growth problem is not really due to macroeconomics or supply chain … [Read more...] about With Revenue Down 5.5%, Tim Cook Presides Over Shrinking Apple

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Apple’s quarterly earnings dropped 5% for the holiday quarter, as the company announced yesterday. That’s the biggest drop since 2016, even though the company still vacuumed up more than $96 billion in just three months and now has not just over $50 billion in cash and liquid investments but over $100 billion in long-term investments. But there were three things that were up, and two of them are completely related: total active devices, and services revenue. Total active devices crossed the two billion mark for the first time ever, Apple CEO Tim Cook said, and he connected that to the almost $21 billion in services revenue for the company’s first quarter results. That’s almost the only revenue number that was up. Every single geographical category — Americas, Europe, China and Taiwan, Japan, and Asia Pacific — were down. And almost every single product category — iPhone, Mac, and Wearables, — was down, with the … [Read more...] about Apple Had A Down Quarter. But 3 Things Were Up

Bank of England, London (File image: Reuters) The Bank of England raised interest rates by half a percentage point Thursday as it sought to tame double-digit inflation that is fueling a cost-of-living crisis, public-sector strikes and fears of recession. The bank’s monetary policy committee voted 7-2 to push its key rate to 4%, approving the 10th consecutive rate increase since a post-pandemic surge in the world economy and Russia’s war in Ukraine drove inflation to 40-year highs. Economists suggest this may be the last big rate increase for Britain’s central bank as inflation begins to slow. “The extent to which domestic inflationary pressures ease will depend on the evolution of the economy, including the impact of the significant increases in Bank Rate so far,” the bank said in a statement. “There are considerable uncertainties around the outlook.” The U.S. Federal Reserve has already started tapering its response, boosting its key rate by just a … [Read more...] about Bank of England hikes rates by half-point to tame inflation

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin In Maui, life revolves around the beach. The $5.5-million plantation-style residence in Wailuku on Hawaii’s second-largest island takes full advantage of its oceanfront setting. The 4.5-acre property at 490 and 497 Lilihua Place was custom-built in 2020 to maximize access and views. The beach lies right outside the backyard, a perfect location for surfing, kitesurfing, standup paddling and just kicking back and watching sunsets. “There’s big wave activity out there that’s just amazing,” says listing agent Brad MacArthur of Hawaii Life. Love horses? There’s plenty of room for equestrian activities too. Views abound inside the elevated main house. “As soon as you walk in the front door, all the glass around the hall showcases the ocean view,” MacArthur says. There’s not a bad view from any window in the five-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home. The property also has a one-bedroom cottage with a private entrance. The main … [Read more...] about 4.5-Acre Oceanfront Maui Property Hits The Market For $5.5 Million

NEW YORK — On a brisk recent Sunday, a band of teenagers met on the steps of Central Library in Brooklyn to start the weekly meeting of the Luddite Club, a high school group that promotes a lifestyle of self-liberation from social media and technology. As the dozen teens headed into Prospect Park, they hid away their iPhones — or, in the case of the most devout members, their flip phones, which some had decorated with stickers and nail polish. They marched up a hill toward their usual spot, a dirt mound far from the park’s crowds. Among them was Odille Zexter-Kaiser, a senior at Edward R. Murrow High School, who trudged through leaves in Doc Martens and mismatched wool socks. “It’s a little frowned on if someone doesn’t show up,” Odille said. “We’re here every Sunday, rain or shine, even snow. We don’t keep in touch with each other, so you have to show up.” After the club members gathered logs to form a circle, they sat and withdrew into a bubble of serenity. Some drew in … [Read more...] about “Luddite” teens don’t want your likes

PHUKET: The easiest way to get 3G service in Phuket involves a trek to the True office in Phuket Town, in the little building in front of Robinson’s department store. There you will find several people who understand 3G (believe me, that’s quite an accomplishment), and they’ll set you up with 3G service. If you already have a True SIM card, and a dongle, 3G iPad or 3G capable smartphone, you only need to enable the 3G service from True. You can keep your old phone number. 3G will run about 800 baht per month, in addition to your regular phone charges. But you’ll be limited to three gigabytes in total data transmission during any particular month. If you go over the allotment, True automatically drops you back to plain old everyday GPRS service, which is painfully slow. Three gig is enough for moderate web surfing and email work, but won’t even scratch the surface if you download torrents or movies.
