Apple seems to want it both ways with the iPad Pro: it loves to tout the iPad’s laptop-dwarfing sales figures and industry-leading performance, but when pushed on the iPad’s limitations, the company insists that the iPad is still an ongoing attempt to build the future of computing, not a laptop replacement.
But after eight years, this double-sided argument is no longer tenable. Unlike virtually every other computer, the iPad is a product of Apple’s singular vision: the company designs the display, the processor, the operating system, and the limits of the applications and accessories that plug into it. And after all this time, it’s clear that whatever roadblocks and frustrations exist in using the iPad Pro are there because Apple wants them there. There just aren’t that many excuses left.

- The problem is really the software. They need to look at common use cases and work with developers to address them.yuekit

Apple set to unveil streaming service, will reportedly offer HBO, Showtime for $9.99 a month
This is the Netflix-killer...never stop innovating Apple!
- I'm dropping HBO as soon as Game of Thrones wraps up, sooo. And, Showtime sucks.section_014
- 9.99 each, though.
apples stock is still up 21% YTDGnash - That is same price they (hbo and showtime) offer anywhere.monospaced
- Plus, that's not the story here. you can already get those services through AppleTV, anyway.Gnash
- Exactlymonospaced
- lol @ "Netflix-killer... tried that , and so did Amazon. Netflix is still king because of their content.Maaku
- HBO tried that*Maaku
- Yeah. They shouldn’t be measured by if they kill or don’t kill Netflix. That is unreasonable.monospaced

gnash :"sounds like support didn't warn you that resetting the phone erases all the data. that sucks, but not the phone's fault, i don't think"well, the thing is I didn't reset the phone. it all logged me out of every apps, mails etc by itself, without any action from me...

- I misread your initial statement: when you said "this cunt" I thought you were referring to phone-supportGnash
- (this cunt "on the" phone -- is how I read it)Gnash
- No worries gnash, I realized that maybe I hadn’t been clear on my post.dyspl
- Not backing it up often enough, my fault. The iPhone breaking down like this, it’s a apple issue.dyspl
- It’s kinda crazy to see people are all up in arms when you just say that apple isn’t perfect. A cult for a fucking brand 0_odyspl
- I get your reluctance to use cloud services (i shudder at the idea of a breach) but I love how simple it makes everything within the ecosystem .Gnash
- iCloud has lost my dad his pictures many many times... so it's not perfect either. The problem here is that we used to pay extra to get cutting edgezarkonite
- design/technology on a platform that just works. Apple's value prop is gone and that's why google has 80% of the phone market.zarkonite
- oh, and when they switch to fucking cloud music they erased all my exclusive DJ sets, and replaced a bunch of songs with versions that weren't the same.zarkonite
- ^ point takenGnash
- Google has 80% of the phone market?monospaced
- like a radio edit of a song that was a live version, etc.zarkonite
- Wow, on a global level they do!monospaced
- In the USA, they have ~55% and Apple has ~45%monospaced
- There’s also the dependency on an online service, that you then pay for when you go above the given free space.dyspl
- ^ you can use iCloud for only contacts and keychain and iMessage and keep usage small.Gnash
- it's totally customizable, and 99c a month isn't that bad :/monospaced
- I’ll look more into it.dyspl
- mono: yeah globally, I'm surprised it's still that high in the US. They're being outsold about 3:1 right now in the US.zarkonite

Guess the new Mac Pros won't be using any Apple silicon yet?
- This is just GPU updates for current Intel Macs. Apple Silicon "pro" Macs aren't announced yet.evilpeacock
- They updated the existing line with this option a few days ago.monospaced
- While I think Apple's MPX form factors aren't all bad, one could already get non-Apple GPUs (or CPUs) and drop 'em in already.evilpeacock
- How is this GPU compared to nVidia ones?grafician
- They are good GPUs, but they don't have support for CUDA. That means some 3D renders can't even use them.monospaced
- Hmm how exactly could AMD GPUs have support for CUDA when that's nVidia tech?!
It's up to the 3D renderers teams to offer support lolgrafician
