If Apple really wants to lower their costs they'll put their own A-series CPU/GPUs in their Macs.
Now that I have a gaming PC next to my Mac mini, I don't care as long as the future Mac can run the software I need. Bonus points if it means a cheaper MacBook Air that can run for 20 hours per charge.
They're all gone. The problem is, when you walk around with an aluminium foil hat all the time and you happen to have half a sandwich to store in the fridge for later, you just grab your hat and... then it's too late.
It's sad that Windows and Linux users have to go to such troubles.
Me? I only buy Macs. Because Apple takes the 1% of the best drives made in each manufacturing lot and puts them in their Macs. That's why Macs are so expensive.
I mean, this has to be the reason, right? Surely they're not just buying the same parts as Dell and others and just selling overpriced computers and pocketing the profits.
How about virtual wallpaper? I'd like the inside of my home office to look like I'm actually in a café in Paris while I code. Sort of a first step toward a holodeck, I guess.
Second step? Beautiful women in swimsuits sitting in the café.
Third step? Don't bother. We'll keep ourselves busy with step two.
The 6 Mbit stream is compressed; it gets upconverted to a 25 Mbit stream before decoding.
What kind of nonsense is that? Do you understand how video compression works? Take a 4K picture, compress it to a 10KB JPEG and then "upconvert it" to 4K again, it will look like shit.
Okay then Apple should unlock macOS so that it can be used on any regular PC. Just list the supported laptops, CPUs, GPUs, chipsets, etc and let us nerds worry about compatibility.
So why not make all consoles world-wide multilingual? Doesn't HDMI and external power supplies render the "country" problem obsolete? All you end up with as a problem is trilingual packaging for the USA/Canada/Mexico.
You can also blame the fucking Office de la langue française. It's these fuckers' fault we can't get stuff here because of archaic laws. This is 2017, you either read english or you're stuck with 1% of the Internet.

If all you do is run the latest apps, sure. Otherwise they still work fine.
I prefer to wait until someone I know ditches his current phone for a newer one and gives me the old one for free.
And this gives us gems like this one.
Man, I must really mess up Google's data on me because my fetish is searching for stuff on Google.
You just gave me an idea for a new detective TV show: Magnum I.P.

I live in Canada, and all our documents are encoded in UTF-EH, making them incompatible with other systems on the planet.

Seagate is not reliable.

Fuck AR.
Except if it can give me a virtual 3D anime wifu, then get out of my fucking way - nobody will stop me from getting AR.

Whenever I see "A.I." in an article I read it as "Advanced Ignoramus".

Sony is blocking crossplay? Explain Final Fantasy XI and Final Fantasy XIV.
You can connect a keyboard and mouse to a console but will the games use them?

Official Nintendo SNES gamepad -> ATtiny85 -> USB HID gamepad.

Fucking iPhones... Give us decent Mac mini and MacBook Air updates, PLEASE!
