PC sales fell by 10% worldwide last quarter, according to Gartner. Apple had been outpacing the overall industry, but this is the second straight quarter in which Mac sales performed worse than the overall PC market.
Mac sales were relatively abysmal, badly missing Wall Street analysts' expectations. They expected 600,000 more Macs to be sold during the quarter.

maybe they could look at taking the macbook air, their best selling model of all time, and putting a better screen in it? just an idea

The only way a good TN seems to exist is if someone has only ever used a monitor from 1998, or they're used to a 200Hz 'gaming' panel that sacrifices everything for speed.
Considering it's the year 666 + 666 + 666 + 6 + 6 + 6 you would think we would finally have OLED laptops from the places trying to market themselves as boutique brands and be done with screens that can still be comparable to CRTs of the same size in power consumed.

there are a lot of tech that can make tn screen better and the one in mba is as good as it get and almost comparable to the ips panels in certain metrics eg. contrast ratio beating the older ips 15" mbp and delta e of ~2.3 compare to 1.95 on the 13" rmbp

one of your devices has that poo poo on and it's going to keep prompting every time it attempts to do the second factor of authentication.

if you don't see Advanced on Settings > iCloud > Keychain, it's not authorized, and you probably want to turn it off on that device (or authorize it)

oleds still degrade, but not nearly as fast. the bigger issue is that different subpixels degrade at different rates, but still probably not fast enough that you'll notice a difference in even an extended phone lifetime. tvs have solved this by putting white oleds behind a colored filter.
