Companies report back to the government. Governments report back to the illuminati. The illuminati report back to the gray aliens. The gray aliens report back to the united milky way conglomerate. The united milky way conglomerate report back to the master control system. The master control system is the engine running a game on my phone.
But we are the users of those products. If as their users we can't understand the reason for the changes, it means the reason is either non-existant or totally pointless.
If you want proof that they still haven't learned, look at the upcoming iMac Pro. Yes it has incredible specifications on paper, but cramming all that powerful hardware in a thin-for-no-reason all-in-one computer? Disaster waiting to happen and an insane sticker price to go with it.
He advised his audience to "be intellectually honest -- and have the courage to change."
Oh, okay. So instead of doing what Steve Jobs taught you, i.e. "You've got to be willing to look yourself in the mirror and say I was wrong, it's not right." you're telling us we're the ones who need to change?
Update the Mac mini, really update the MacBook Air and hurry up with the new Mac Pro already. Releasing hardware without headphone jacks and making all the UIs flat as shit isn't innovating, it's moving stuff around to give us the impression that you're doing anything at all.
I was listening to music before 8-bit home computers came out. Try again.
Think of what I said. Writing down, by hand, the price of EVERY item in a grocery store. Multiple times, as many as you have checkouts at the store. You'd have to shut down the store just to wait for those lists to be ready.
Then every single item people purchase would have to be checked on those long hand-written lists. It could take what, up to a minute to locate an item on the list? Average 15 items per customer, that's 15 minutes to checkout. Think of the waiting lines at the checkout.
The only way to speed this up would be to split the items lists to multiple people at each checkout, maybe by department or type of item so you could quickly know which person has the price list for the item, but then you increase the noise floor because everyone is shouting to get the items names and prices back and forth between the cashier and the price checkers.
And let's not even talk about the problem of hand-written anything. The only way to make sure the price list checkers could easily and quickly read the lists would be to write them down themselves, otherwise that's another delay in the whole setup.
When some generator-powered ATMs finally opened, lines stretched hours long, with people camping out in beach chairs and holding umbrellas against the sun.
So... they were connected to generator-powered networks?
The second you lose power, you're fucked unless you already have cash on hand and until superinflation happens it which case it's only worth something as toilet paper. That's why gold doubloon is king, always has been, always will be.

You got that right! Some news could be "here's the latest update about .net implementation on FreeBSD running on a Raspberry Pi Zero to mine Monero."

I guess that explains why my Win10 box rebooted by itself two days ago.
But you can still connect an external optical drive. You can rip music CDs and movie DVDs to your HDD/SSD.
You can't add ports to a laptop.
I just tried that and she replied "I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that."
How insulting. After all these years she's still calling me Dave even though it's not my name.
I use Apple's Pages, you insensitive clod!
3A) You think you get control of what data is being sent.

I don't post comments on Slashdot.

You don't want to breathe the fumes.
All companies do it. Not saying that makes it right, but don't single out Apple as if they're the only ones doing that.
You know what's written on the CPU fan of my intel i5? Foxconn.
Changes to make something better are one thing, changes for change's sake is pointless and pushes your customers away to competing products.

It will, because the store will have the possibility of making hand-written price lists of every item in the store for all checkouts.
Hey, nobody said it would be easy or quick.
And those e-paper labels only need power to change the image being displayed.
Not in Canada, it's not paper anymore.

I think you mean a nice hot cup of a liquid that is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
And imagine me, eating a poutine while typing a reply to your comment in english on a US website.
Bleh. Some poutine sauce dropped on my shirt. No problem, I'll wipe it with my towel. Could be useful later.
