So you finally realized the world is not you.

Again, how would you know unless you have access to everyone's calendar?

1) You said no one uses or has a calendar. That's entirely different than no one can see your calendar. Why would you lie? 2) My entire point was no one should be able to see your calendar. What part of that was unclear to you?

And you know this, how? Do you have access to everyone's calendar?

In the case of surgery, you mean besides to remind people I work with that I'm having surgery so I will be out for X number of days? In the case of maternity leave, I have a coworker that I do not interact with on a daily basis. She's out on maternity leave but I don't know when she started or when she gets back. Guess what scheduling a meeting tell would tell me: She's out until [date].

In what world do you live in? I have 2 calendars: Outlook and Zoom. How do people at your work schedule meetings again? Telepathy? Text messages?

What does a cashier have to do with Amazon again? You do understand Amazon has office workers right?

Let me see if I understand you correctly: According to you no one uses a calendar even though I have 2 of them to keep track of meetings. No one blocks off time in their calendar so that people know not to schedule a meeting or that someone is unavailable. Do you actually work in an office because it seems like you do not.

In your world people just take time off medical leave without reasons?

They are not supposed to be visible which is the point you are missing.

Good for you?

And here is the crux of the problem: You do not represent everyone but somehow think you do.

More than likely it is a clickbait title. After all, there are many "shocking" things that “companies don't want you to know" that will "change the world."

Probably the same as Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Samsung products. Probably in the same factories that made Apple products.

So just like Dell, HP, etc.

Sounds like you're trying to fit a square peg in a round hole and blame Apple for that. First of all, for AI work, why aren't you using the Apple Neural Engine that has existed since the M1. Second, you can get external GPUs if you wanted. But again neither the Mac Mini nor the iMac explicitly designed for the task you want. I don't complain a Toyota Prius can't move large pieces of furniture.

Redundancy would not be my concern. Security would be. What does that code plug into? As head of HR, I would imagine that she would have access to sensitive information. If we suppose she extended her calendar app to access all of Amazon employees' calendars did anyone secure that? What data can be gathered from the calendar: Medical leave dates including pregnancy leave, surgeries, etc. Meetings about disciplinary actions.. Meetings about terminations/layoffs. Any notes attached to or recorded at those meetings.

There are laws against stalking. The problem is police officers using Flock surveillance to stalk people. Guess who was watching them: no one. Guess who would prosecute police officers for stalking. Probably no one.

As opposed to closed source where no one will ever know that a 20 year vulnerability is being exploited by unless the company acknowledges it (if that company is till around).

That's a false dichotomy argument that people are against computers or security cameras. What people are against is the state using automated surveillance with LPR. People are also against police using that technology with little oversight including many, many cases of stalking. People are also against the tax payer paying for all of that.

It is all about "winning" but not for US companies or China. By making everyone else lose, Trump is winning.

Xinuos ' legal argument in this suit seems to be that even though IBM settled with SCO Group, IBM technically never got a license to the code they used in Project Monterrey under the settlement. Under copyright laws, this was infringement by IBM. As the court clarified, even if they that ignored that SCO Group did not grant them rights to sue under their purchase agreement, infringement lawsuits are defined by "accrual" and "notice" when it comes to statute of limitations. When did the infringement occur and when did the copyright holder know about it. The court ruled that an infringement can only accrue once and that was settled by SCO Group. The second part is that Xinuous knew of the infringement when they purchased the assets in 2011 and they would have had to file a suit by 2014. Both courts did not go into the merits of the suit only that it is effectively dead due to statute of limitations.

On iPhone and tablets, there are many restrictions on 3rd party software. On a Mac, the OS prompts the user the first time they try to run downloaded software that did not originate from the Apple Store.

Blaming Apple for RAM apocalypse is the same as blaming PC, smartphone, tablet, [electronic device] makers for the RAM apocalypse. They are all "contributing" by existing. How dare they. ;)

Those are called laptops. Yes some manufacturers throw in a keyboard and mouse for free but few throw in a monitor for free unless it's an all-in-one. Mini PCs generally do not include keyboard, mouse, or monitor. At my company there were bins of keyboards and mice in the computer supply closet that no one used. I think you can buy them used by the pallet.

That's your opinion that they look bad but the main reason Apple disabled subpixel font rendering since Mojave (2018) is that does not look good on higher resolutions displays like Retina.

Why? Unless your ancient keyboard uses ancient 5 pin DIN, USB keyboards works. I've plugged in Windows keyboards into Macs and they work. Sure, the mapping of certain keys is different but I don't need a new keyboard.

Again why? Any USB mouse works. I've used Dell mice with Macs, and, again, they just work.

Have you actually used USB keyboards and mice with a Mac in the last 30 years because it seems like you have not.
