A third ecosystem is needed and a Surface phone that can easily dock into a large screen, keyboard and mouse setup could be enough to cover most people s computing needs.
Add OneDrive for data storage, Office 365 and all you need is a phone that can dock in a monitor or tv to work or be entertained or dock in a car for navigation etc.
I had an old version of photoshop elements that stopped working after upgrading OS X. Same may happen to Photoshop proper at some time. The Gimp is enough for my needs and when it wonâ(TM)t be I may try pixelmator.
Spot on. Most enterprise applications are now web based so the underlying OS should matter a lot less than 10 years ago in Munich. For the exceptions its easy to run them in virtual machines, locally or remotely.
Ok so I have run battery diagnostics and appearently my battery is at 88pct according to Battery Life Doctor.
It would appear my phone is not throttled but that the latest iOS is just too much to handle comfortably for my iPhone 6.
Bought Geekbench just now so here we go, the numbers donâ(TM)t mean anything to me right now: 1547 Single-Core Score 2627 Multi-Core Score Geekbench 4.2.1 for iOS AArch64 System Information iOS 11.2.1 on iPhone 6
As I assume I cannot downgrade to iOS 10 Im stuck with a poorly performing phone or will have to buy something new. Changing battery wonâ(TM)t help, so good to know that. Happy i had this conversation, even if it was impolite.
I’ll have a look at geek bench for iPhone but I know my phone is underperforming since the latest update. Siri is slow, I have to wait before contacts load and many other small annoyances that are new. Actually I can’t be arsed to deal with it or have this conversation so I’ll stfu and may buy something new tomorrow. I have work to do.
that is nearly unusable. I have been pondering since December on buying the X or Galaxy but now I may just have the battery replaced.
Thereâ(TM)s nothing wrong with a 6 and Iâ(TM)m against upgrading just for the sake of it. Also i am happy with touchid, but would not buy a new phone that looks like the old phone.
As it stands currently the iPhone 5 we have laying around with an old iOS and a dying battery is actually faster than he 6 with current iOS.
Apple has normally been good with keeping stuff going and with this latest move they are hopefully back on track.
I could easily buy the latest and greatest, but I prefer to spend more, buy quality and make it last. The late 2011 15â(TM) MacBook is an ace that with minor upgrades (SSD+Ram) keeps going strong.
I think youâ(TM)re missing a point here. Itâ(TM)s not about being dumb but about unfair competition. I live in the Netherlands and his is a much discussed topic but very much how the current government coalition wants it.

Actually, it _is_ spread throughout the day. Itâ(TM)s not NYE at the same time in the world ;-)
Facebook could be split into Facebook, Whatssapp and Pinterest to begin - 3 companies. Their advertising section be a different company too.
Google could easily be split into a mail provider (paid), a search engine with advertising and a mapping company etc.
It would reduce the reliance on single platforms with an extensive tracking reach.
My last iPhone 6 did not crack in 3 years.
My new X got scratched by keys in the first month and cracked at the first drop.
Really fed up with jewellery design instead of a practical design.
All this glass makes it heavy as well.
And all of that in a childs toy!
The summary does not make sense either.
Just that.
Kingsmen!! The second one which was brilliant if odd.

Convergence like that finally makes sense.
Good point, now where is my OSS phone?

Insightfull and well written!

You mean also like Trump?
Yes! Where is that share button when you need it?
Problem solved.
Thats too black and white a view.

How long have you been around here?
The Slashdot Mantra is Apple is teh Evilz!
Long enough to know these fashions have come and gone. I think i registered in 1998 or so. I don’t post much from iOS.
Fuck, whatâ(TM)s wrong with slashdot on iOS???

So what you're saying is that Microsoft had won a decade ago when Apple launched their childish Mac vs PC ads?
In fact they had on the desktop.
A full reset did the job for me. iCloud also slows it down.

This is important work.
