Heh just playinButtercup ? On a positive, happy to see that Steve and I had the same opinion after one exchange
Just want to mention that I am currently debating going NUC vs Mac Mini as a plex media server + other things. I don’t mind Windows but I love MacOS.
However, I am weighing the pros/cons between value (NUC) or MacOS.
So yeah unlike some people in this thread, I never discount Windows out of the picture. It’s the solution that matters.
Will you be having pumpkin pie or cherry at Thanksgiving?
[doublepost=1542724158][/doublepost]Here comes the next wave in the storm.
Neither. I don’t have pies for thanksgiving.
And I know you’re trying to bait, but I am just pointing out there are people like me who can openly use other things outside of Apple
The latest iPhone, XS 64gb is almost the double price of my 6S 64gb (at the time the latest). Most people salaries haven't doubled during that time. But Tim, the executives, the board, the institutional shareholders have benefited.
$749 in 2015 vs $999 in 2018 is not “almost double the price”. In fact the $250 / 33% increment over 3 years seems justified based on how the iPhone has revolved and in line with certain Samsung products.
The investors and mgmt of Apple deserve every nickel they get based on company performance.
Maybe people’s salaries haven’t doubled in three years, but if I dig deep I’m sure some expenses have gone up 33% in three years.
maybe you can explain something to me, I am being serious,
We have macbook 2015, my wife won't use it because she can't download docs off a state web site she has to use all the time, why is this? She ends up having to use windows to download these docs.
I was just pointing out this thread was about iPhones. People always have to bring Macs into iPhone threads.I think MR would improve immensely id they cut the off topic stuff more. I prefer pumpkin just so you know.
Could be an AdBlocker, most likely it’s an requirement of Adobe Flash. Just install a second browser like Chrome to use only for the odd misbehaving website. Unfortunately governments assume everyone uses Internet Explorer. Companies who’ve got to earn a living ought to have a mobile version of their website fully compatible with Safari.

Steve Jobs famous ‘Thoughts on Flash’ have changed the internet, but not the ways government works.

Who told you that? Source? Oh, that's right. Just a random person saying something doesn't make it true.
Cook himself said the X has been the most popular model every quarter since the X was released. And no, he can't lie or he'll go to jail.

I, like the 218M others that bought iPhones, see the value in Apple's products, software, support, ecosystem, etc. It's not like comparable Android phones are cheap. The Note is over $1,000. Even the once "cheap" OnePlus is over $600 now. I don't need to save a few $100 on something I have in my hand hours per day. I'd rather not have Google's software spying on me 24/7, zero support, and a buggy software experience.
You cannot release a phone, the Xs, that really has zero meaningful advancements over the iPhone X...or this happens!
The camera is slightly better in the Xs, and it has Smart HDR and "Adjustable Depth of Field" which allows people with the Xs/Max to control the blur of the background in their Portrait Photos. I still believe that the iPhone X can do Apples version of "Adjustable Depth of Field" but they left it off the iPhone X so the Xs had one smaller "new" feature. I can do the adjustable depth of field with a third party app like Focos, which many say does it way better.
The A12 is a beast but it is nothing that you can really tell the difference in day to day apps and even with iOS 12. If they want to put these amazing chips (which are only going to get better and better) in the new iPhones, they need to have some sort of "Pro" apps that take advantage of that power or what good is it? We are all paying for something that we cannot even take 100% advantage of!
I could go on and on, but this is what Apple gets!

I think the meaningful release this year was the Max. I don't know why anybody would buy a XS if they have a X already. I am not sure if Tim Cook is aware of this, we can only hope he reads MR so he doesn't miss out on this sort of stuff.
The title of the article should be "Now is the time to buy Apple stock".
what kind of files are they that she cant download them? ive Never had an issue with docs if I have the software to support it on my Mac.
I have this weird sound coming from the back of my Subaru. Any idea what it might be?
I went with a maxed-out NUC i7-6770HQ (Skull Canyon) just for fun and after two years of heavy use I am completely satisified with it
Not sure, I know they pertain to docs that attorneys download from a state website. Maybe victim advocacy, appeals, court filing docs that type of stuff. Her boss uses iPhone and bought a mac once for the office but he always had to run to a back office and use a PC for these docs. He eventually went back to PC for work.
There is a middle ground Apple is missing though. Android has how many different sizes, resolutions and what not? It might be in 100s, certainly dozens. Apple is never going to come close to that problem. It wouldn't kill them to have 2 or 3 different formats. The notch present a problem in keeping all the relative screen sizes the same, as they probably can't scale down, keep all the aspect ratios the same and fit the faceID stuff in there. But there is no reason the same aspect ratio can't be used over the basic foot print of the screen.

That's four major pullbacks in 11 years? I don't think that's happening for the reasons you think its happening....
Has she asked for help?
Maybe it is not possible, maybe it is, but it does seem pretty unlikely that she shouldn't be able to download something with a Mac.
We could speculate about it all day. What i do know is Apple has a bright future. I am 43 years old the year is 2018 and i look forward to laughing at this thread when I cash out when I am 63 or whenever.
