That was actually my thought. It wasn't until I got to the mention of Twitter than I figured out they didn't mean X11.

I did think switching from X11 to Wayland was a funny thing to post publicly about. And a funny thing for /. to pick up.

Well considering he predicted that Apple would make touchscreen MacBooks by 2025 and that has not happened yet, this might be another miss.

One of the main problems that foldables have right now is their screen aspect ratio is square whereas a lot of content is either tall (YouTube shorts, TikTok shorts) or wide (movies, YouTube). Having more screen means little if most of it is used for black pixels.

You like Google use the term "RCS" to mean Universal Profile AND Google RCS to mean the same thing. That is the lie you are spreading. They are not the same thing.

What is the "rant"? I posted "features like encryption". I suppose in your world that is a rant. The fact of the matter is Universal Profile does not support encryption and other features that iMessage and Google RCS have. You seem not to understand the word "features" or "other".

The default base protocol for that is called MMS. Please look it up. The problem with RCS is that since every carrier and device used their own version of RCS in the beginning, why should Apple implement dozens of incompatible versions of RCS again? Again MMS is the default fallback.

And Apple has never whined that Google didn't follow iMessage. Like you are whining now.

Please describe how Apple is supposed to decrypt Google RCS encrypted message then without adopting it? Google RCS uses the Signal Protocol however their implementation is incompatible with the Signal app. You don't know? What a shocker.

What are you talking about? Apple did not support RCS for years because every device used a different version. Your argument is Apple should have publicly announced the reason when it was apparent to anyone in the industry? Again, you did no research did you?

And herein are the lies. 1) Google's calls their protocol "RCS" which they used interchangeably with GSMA RCS (Universal Profile) in all their arguments. 2) While Apple did not adopt Universal Profile, which other carriers and devices supported standard Universal Profile? None of them. They implemented their own incompatible versions of Universal Profile. Why? Because Universal Profile did not have features of iMessage. It was not until Google developed Google RCS that had features like encryption that carriers and devices used a common protocol. Unfortunately Google RCS is still proprietary and controlled only by Google. The default fallback for messaging over cellular radio is MMS.

The facts like always do not support your arguments. I could assume you do no research as this seems to be a habit. Or you simply do not care that you post misrepresentations.

Or would that just be a firehose?
Who watches the watchers?

Then what is your definition of "artificial"? Bear in mind the entire article is one person's speculation on what Apple might do. The limitation right now is Apple's contract with TSMC is to make a certain amount of A18 Pros. TSMC has allocated those lines to other customers after they finish with Apple's order. I would guess if Neo demand were high enough, Apple would take 6 GPU core A18 Pro chips and disable one of the GPU cores to keep selling Neos. Implementing a new production line or designing a 5 GPU core A18 Pro would be costly.

I do not know UK laws but he can absolutely sue for libel; winning the suit is another question. Libel requires reputation harm not any general harm.

they were able to pass the physical.

Oh, come on, stop harping on Joe Biden's frailty — he's been out of office for over a year now!

But you don't read the generated binaries, do you? Not even the assembly text...

I think you give him too much credit. I don't think his "messaging strategy" has any design, nor is it a strategy. It's just Trump saying whatever shit bubbles to the top of what sometimes passes for a mind. And it's random and changes every four hours because he's random and changes what he believes every four hours. Or every four minutes.

I don't think he even "learned" to act like a reality show... I think this is just who he is and who he always has been, albeit with an added layer of growing dementia. He was moderately successful on reality TV not because he figured out how to be moderately successful on reality TV, but because his normal personality, style and complete lack of ethics, morality or consistency just happens to be perfect for reality TV.

The threat of the Neo is not just Apple entering the sub $1000 market this year. It is in the next few years as Apple applies more pressure for them to innovate in that segment. Right now they can compete with Apple on pricing and some technical specs. However where they cannot compete is offering aluminum cases in multiple colors for a few years. Adding a multicolor aluminum case process to that segment would stress any small profits.

And you are asserting as to what Apple might do in the future based on what someone wrote on the Interwebs. Apple could make all the A18 Pros with 5 cores they want as long as TSMC has capacity. If TSMC simply does not have capacity, is that that your definition of "artificial"?

And who is artificially limiting capacity again? The author is speculating as to what Apple will do in the future should they sell out all Neos. Apple could manufacture A18 Pros with 5 GPU cores as long as TSMC has capacity for them to make the chip.

By definition, that is a limited edition. It is not a "rare" or "collectible" edition. The NES Classic was also a limited edition that sold several million copies.
