So on ATP today little beta bitch Marco Arment was planning to keep the money for his Peace app, and isn't happy that Apple just refunded everyone. What a piece of poo poo.

yeah. I was prepared to think, ok Marco you didn't get the chance to give the money to charity, because Apple took it away from you. then he is flat asked if he would've refunded everything given the chance and he bitched about the cost of his SSL certificate and development time. what a baby

what is this

it's like when you slide to go back like in messages, do the same with a bit of force and it'll go to the last app you had open, if you do this and only drag your finger half way across the screen it'll open the app switcher instead. v neat

he also said he's going to pull the ghostery connection because it costs him money, which will break the app for anyone who is still using it.

his post was more like "I guess people can request a refund if they feel like they really need to, and also the app might keep working for a while, but I'm not maintaining the server", knowing that many people won't waste the time to do that so he gets to keep their money.

I listened to rest of the podcast and Siracusa got a :master: in at the end by telling Marco to order a fracture logo and then throw it away after a day.

I'm disappointed no one will call him a navel gazing retard for not being willing to just say "I am donating the proceeds to a charity of my choice"
