    Apple is using games as advertisements and missing the point

    Edit/tldr: Apple are showing off years old AAA games to show how powerful their chips are. But gaming is far bigger and varied than AAA games. They need to help cultivate development- AAA and indie. I don’t feel like they are doing that. Hey guys. I want to preface this by saying that I love...

    Lockdown Mode and privacy issues

    I understand that Lockdown Mode (on iOS, iPadOS and macOS) is to increase security. But I read somewhere (IT tech website) that if Lockdown Mode enabled, there would be have some negative impact on your device's privacy.

    The software on my iPhone is extremely slow!

    I converted a macOS programme for the iPhone. WOW!!! Is that slow? At first, I wondered if I was making a lot of disc accesses. However, as I began to examine, I realised I was just reading an offset from a binary file. Only roughly 512 bytes of data were read in. I also have a sizable array...

    From time to time, on macOS, I get a notification in the top right corner of the screen (I think that is the Control Centre area).

    I was getting weird ScreenTime notifications. Then I found "montgomerycountymd.gov" in my App Limits settings. Problem is I NEVER even visited this site on any of my devices let alone adding it to App Limits. Is this just a bug or should I be worried about device security? I ran a Malwarebytes...

    Login In Screen Frozen

    I found this weird bug earlier in Ventura today. I booted up my MacBook Pro, and once I clicked enter the screen froze and displayed like 10 ten bars at the bottom of the display. The MacBook was not responding at all. It stayed like that for over 10 minutes, so I finally had enough and luckily...

    There're many comments, in various threads, wishing Apple would slow down, or even stop, adding software features, and focus on tightening-up their software. Many often cite Snow Leopard as being the heyday for Apple's "it just works" age, and I'm sure there's a similar reference for iOS. As...

    "Create PDF" as individual files versus a combined file
