Most people aren't going to have the ability to replace BGA components like DRAM and NVRAM chips on Apple devices. Some repair shops might, but it's not something someone with zero experience and a soldering iron is going to be replacing.

BGA component rework requires $30k+ in equipment, temp and humidity controls and knowledge of how to build thermal profiles.

They are also moisture sensitive, so managing them is more complicated than just sticking them on a shelf and waiting for someone to buy them.

True! I'm just glad I'm not the only one who sees it. Just want some positivity.

Anytime the CEO asks the rank and file to do QA, it is a disaster. QA is a skilled position and randos usually generate more noise than signal. He should know better.

Tell me how current algos are not giving curated ads already? What does putting AI in front of it add? Other than a more clickbaity title.

Trying to recoup the billions they lost promoting bing over the last decade?

Also, capitalism.

And if it is so then Tesla can provide documentation of the low performance and signed interactions with said employees stating they were told. This is standard practice in every major company I have worked at. It's done so employees can't claim they weren't told

I tried to get Siri to suck and she said no

Damn, it's not even working yet. Used to be a day companies actually got things working, worked out the kinks, and built users, before monetizing it.

>You keep conflating the word pro with premium,

no, I'm saying that they're not pro, nor premium. Shiny toys.

All those specs, and it's still a toy, unsuitable for doing professional work in all facettes; there is always something that they fucked up in order to make you buy another product, that still doesn't get the business done all the way. Halfway yes, but I'm not getting paid for half projects.

I can take my SpectreX360 only with me on a trip and get more done than with a macbook, ipad and an imac and a Wacom Cintiq (terrible drivers for Mac, btw, and terrible hardware) combined, in the office. I tried. I only still have the iMac and it runs one specific software (Caldera RIP) because I'm too lazy to build a linux box just for that one program, and the iMac is doing it just fine, but apart from that it's unused in the corner, because it doesn't allow me to do real work till it's done (I'd still have to use one of my PCs to get it finished, so why bother in the first place).

What does this even mean in this context?

Get out of here with this information, Elon Musk is a POS, so any negative information involving him is automatically true and does not require fact checking.

But seriously, it's a genuine issue, if you say a bad thing about a bad person nobody will care to investigate if it's true because why would you "defend" a bad person.

Well, isn't that the point of all of this?

Beginning to smell like desperation!

“We’re concerned that middle America isn’t being radicalized fast enough. Make us some promises!”

You're aware that right now, he's the President, right? And right now is what we're talking about?

That is a fair analogy, but my comment was in response to the claim Google was trying to catch rather than innovating, which I thought was weird since innovation isn't Google's problem, execution and strategy are.

I’m sure it’s going to work great like Siri lol Apple sometimes makes magical amazing things but other times. It’s apparent they have not a clue what they’re doing

Isn't virtualisation running on bare metal, at least the CPU side of things?

Yeah it’s totally reasonable to have subject and industry experts weigh in on the policy you’re writing.

The problem is that politicians don’t actually check the homework that’s done for them. If you’re an engineer for a business and someone tells you “there’s no risks associated with this project,” you translate that as “I don’t know” and find someone else who can actually critique your plan. You don’t assume that there’s literally zero risk, because that just doesn’t happen

I literally called this yesterday

Though, I doubt it’s an original hot take.

>They keep things simple

simple things for simple minds. masses need simple things, not everyone is a power user or a professional, I understand that. There's nothing "pro" or "premium" about it, and that's my point. Half-assed shiny toys for the masses. Like a Mercedes with a Fiat motor. Drives 50 and looks nice, and is expensive like a mercedes. But dare to try going over a hill in it. "They are built for roads, not hills", they'll say and you'll eat it like cake and repeat "hills are scary, I'll pay extra to use the tunnel over there". Well, I wanna go to the top of the hill, offroad, and Apple doesn't do that.
