Money isn't really the issue. But what do you do when you realize that you have lost or left your dongle behind? It's another device to carry, to lose, to break. It's the opposite of "just works".
Oh, so USB->lightning, no problems. USB-C->lightning, OMG, the sky is falling.
The average consumer still feels they have to go into a store and touch and feel a phone and won't just buy one online based on specs.
And you say that like it's a bad thing? Does anyone still remember how the Pentium 4 had such a fast GHZ but was in fact, slower than the Pentium 3, especially the server versions of that CPU?
There is the possibility that Apple discovered some TLAs have been fucking with their TouchID and using it to steal fingerprints/bypass TouchID.
Otherwise, Apple typically prefers to have good user interaction rather than bad interaction, and they have to know that if they brick enough people's devices, it's going to be extremely bad press, and reduce the chances of people immediately upgrading when new versions come out - which is a number they really like to keep as high as possible!
To balance that bad press, against people hacking TouchIDs, and them falling on the "lets keep it secure" side, I can see that happening.
How is it Apple's fault, when it was a replacement battery, and the third party person who replaced it left a tiny screw that punctured the battery, when the put everything back together?
40 mil units over the lifetime of a product, a 2 year period, vs 40 mil units in one quarter, is a little different. Not as much as a couple of thousand vs 40 mil in a quarter, of course. But as others have mentioned, OLEDs aren't known for color accuracy when it first came out.
Apple screens _are_ known for color accuracy. Until OLEDs can match the color accuracy, Apple wouldn't move to them.
Are you a fucking idiot? If I send a continuous spike through an entire range of frequencies, that'd kill your "spread spectrum. Sure, you can go use other frequencies, but I can generate noise or just overwhelm any signal you can put out.
You are of the opinion people who come visit do not need visas? There's a number of countries that don't need it for short term, but if you stay longer than X days, you'll always need a visa. And most citizens of other countries do need a visa.

Are you really that fucking stupid?
Those aren't rented out under AirBNB. You're bitching at the wrong people.
Just saying.

Going by specs would be completely stupid.
I for one welcome our sharks with lasers on their heads, eating hot grits, suitcase cracking overlords! From Soviet Russia, in the name of longcat.
Whatever happened to Natalie Portman...?
Then it's a bug in design or in writing that software. Why should the behavior of the OS change to make up for the bugs in your design/software?
Apparently, according to some reports, this came about because Gnome can't properly kill off all your sub processes when you log out.
So, systemd to the rescue. Why is anyone using gnome again?!
Who's bitching about debian? No one.
Who's bitching about systemd's insanity? A lot of people.
Who's concentrating on things hopefully working in debian stable? You.
But how are Apple haters going to be able to come around to these set of facts...?

For Mandarin, you will have to bend your tongue to it, being a tonal language and all that.

Apple goes for color accuracy, which OLED isn't known for previously.
Of course, all the haters love to pile on just for fun.
Wow. To make up such nonsense. No wonder you had to post a AC.
Who says you can't? Whether you have the technical means to do it or not is a different matter, but legality? No problems there.
Uh, is selling stock the only way to make money? All those private companies out there must be blackholes.
I wonder why people feel the need to lie, and make such blatant lies that is easily caught.
The only fucking reason AMD exists is because IBM mandated vendor plurality when they were creating the first IBM PC.
wow. these types of comments on a tech site that celebrates new products.
Just because you have a personal issue with the company.
Apple mandates that the app ask for certain things, like location, but the app doesn't actually have to comply with what you ask.
Are you actually saying if you deny an app access to location, it can still get that information?

Has the price of iPhones changed...?
You mean that's why Harry Whittington felt bad about getting in the way of Dick Cheney's shot?
Oh no! More regulations? Are you a communist?!?! Bwahahaha
