so is the safari ad blocker thing on ios just going to be like adblock pro plus addition where the adblock people can "approve" ads/companies and those ads go through.

except in adblocks case, you can turn that off, but in apple's case I"m sure that you won't be able to.

so basically every advertiser is just going to have to pay Apple a fee to get through the adblocker...

lol why would apple a company with the yearly income of a small country give a single poo poo about pennies from ad companies

the camera is a big reason why i got the 5S (the others being retina and speed), and not thinking about deleting photos and videos is why i got the largest option available at the time

i dont have my iphone photos sync with icloud since im only on the free tier. are photos free? are uploads recompressed in any way? what about video? in any case why would i want my sole copy of a photo to be on someone else's server?

i used to have the paid icloud 20gb tier but it turned out i didnt need it with dropbox's free 20gb, google's free 15gb, icloud's free 5gb, and my personal and professional storage

it uploads full resolution, the on phone photots get automatically compressed based on the sapce availabel on ur phone and will make themselves smaller if u need space. if u have a mac as well like a normal person the pohotos then get synced to it as well at full resolution so u have a hard copy still. ium sorry the fututrue is so scary 4 u

The fact that, to this day, people think Apple when they think of Adobe products boggles the mind since stuff like Premier and Aftereffects runs like a tire fire covered in dogshit even when you have a beefy graphics workstation, let alone some Mac that's going to be outperformed by a Chromebook in about a year


Same goes for Solidworks really, if not more so. TFW you start getting pretty high up there in the vertices count and complex operations begin to take for freaking ever

bcos if a progoram is on both OSes then u pick osx automatically so u have a stable system.

i want to go ahead quote stymie and say that i agree

yeah apple can do better like making the small 4s sized phone with a9 SoC in it or an unbendable iphone and that idiot users need to be protected from themselves and there's no excuse for apple to make something bad just because other manufacturers made something worse

idk ifi this is difficult to remember, i ge tit was like waht 3 years aog now, but both the iphone 5 and 5s were slammemd byt the emdia for being easily bendable. turnsn out they werentn. also the 6 sint either. a 6 will nto bendn from jus tbeing in ur front pocket, anyonee who has bent their iphone ahhsbeen absudiong that handset.

idiot users need others to protect them from themselves, it's probably one of the cost of doing business if you want to sell as many phones as possible


on a related note it's funny to see that people complain about how fragile the phone is but no one really do drop test on dSLR cameras or SLR lenses

imagine if they drop tested the canon 300mm 2.8II or 70-200 f2.8 II lens and come away surprised that the glass somehow shattered

eyveyr iphone sincne it has exisited has been a big loving slab of glass theat will break if u drop it. if ur in the businensns of beign a idiot an dbrekaing pheosn then stidkc to plastic android poo poo bxoes u can replace fo r$15 every 2 motnhs.
