Curious to see what they cripple with usbc. And if they’re updating every lightning port product to usbc too. Be interesting if all phones will get the pill/dynamic island treatment. Hope it’s useful and not a gimmick when more apps support it

I think it will be hilarious to watch them continue forcing their phones to communicate with USB2.0 speeds even after the move to USB-C just so they can push more people to buy overpriced iCloud storage. It will be 2060 and we will still have USB 2.0 on our apple phones.

Democracy has inherent flaws: very few people grasp the complexities of issues or the consequences of various options, and representative layers serve politicians more than they educate or empower voters.

It’s troubling to see otherwise astute thinkers so mindlessly devoted to a system designed to undermine its most critical participants.
