Exactly, which is why I said “charging people to play pirated games” (though I suppose it was really just one game, so no plural was needed.)

Seems about the same?

The best cheese temperature is fresh out of the refrigerator and I will die on this hill!

I downvoted it because it’s blaming the wrong entity; the real bad actor here is Apple.

The AltStore should be free and it should be available globally, but neither are possible thanks to Apple’s anticompetitive shenanigans.

Agreed, most of the characters in the book are so flat, and only do things because the plot needed them to do that thing.

The Netflix series managed to make the character’s motivations seem more believable which I appreciated.

If only they had functional data backup and export on non-Android platforms…

Ah, you’re right! I evidently mixed up the expensive Apple accessories haha

My favorite post-Jobs keynote moment was the confused laughter when Apple triumphantly announced the price of the $699 Mac Pro wheels.

So disappointed they’re still doing the prerecorded presentations. The old live ones were so much more fun!

Seems they are aware of that problem, according to the article:

Taxis can use Market Street but Uber and Lyft can’t — an aspect of the system that even planners say has problems, since so many people use those ride-booking options, but there’s no obvious way to let them cross 10th Street without allowing all other drivers, too.

Agreed. The problem was they had planned to redo the streetscape as part of the Better Market Street initiative, but the plans fell through because the Board of Supervisors spent so much time infighting that they lost the federal funds that would have funded it:

What would you love to see in a future version of Apple Maps?

For me it's got to be an option for always have the map be north-up when doing turn by turn directions.

 
 

If so, which plastic option did you pick? And how did you like it?
