I did that a few years ago, Windows and Android have been worse with support in my experience. (Windows a bit better than Google when dealing with customer support on an issue)

You're gonna LOVE the Solidigm P44 Pro. Those drives are a STEAL rn.
any extra space they do create, they just cram in more and more camera tech. People want battery.

Interesting to hear.
I ended up NOT buying Ubiquity products a while back because their management software and server didnt work on Macs at all - just Windows and Linux.
Must have been a while back, because I don't ever remember it not working on Macs in the last few years. Now you can even get cloud support (i.e. only need a browser.)
Would you entertain the idea of a wedge shape, thus making it where there is not a bump but the entire phone wouldn’t be thicker? Or what if the bump ran the width of the phone so at least the phone doesn’t rock when on a table face up?
I think you are comparing apples to oranges here on many levels.

Yeah, I'd like something like that. But I'd prefer something like how MS has a LTSC (Long-term Servicing Channel) version of software. No new stinking bugs, just bug fixes and security fixes. Basically, every update is a Leopard to Snow Leopard upgrade. I don't want new
I turned off automatic updating on my work machine because Windows updates kept breaking sh-- um...stuff. I bought a used educations market laptop ($75) that came with Windows Enterprise LTSC. It's comically underpowered (Celeron), but all my stuff just works even with subsequent updates😎, unlike my i7 work machine.😑 Basic office work and web browsing doesn't require a highend machine.😉
More to the point, should Apple and M/Soft abandon named operating systems, Monteray and Windows11 and instead just progressively update, or name updates by month of release, Win11 Jan24 or MacOS Jan24? Updates published around the last day of the month.. Using names or confusing code like M/soft does, it all gets a bit hazy, what version is Snow Leopard, 10 what dot what... But if you say MacOS March 2013.. this creates context, you understand dates..
Opening up the iOS ecosystem could involve allowing users greater customization options, such as choosing default apps for certain functions. It might also entail loosening restrictions on third-party app stores, providing users with more choices beyond the App Store. Additionally, a more open ecosystem could encourage developers to explore innovative features and functionalities, fostering a dynamic app environment. However, balancing openness with maintaining security and user experience standards would be crucial. A thoughtful approach to customization and external app sources could enhance user satisfaction while preserving the integrity of the iOS ecosystem.

Does anyone think we'll see a better monitor than the Studio Monitor right now, but not as crazy as the 6k monitor?
I just think the rebranded 27" LG ultrafine from like 7.5 years ago doens't justify a $1600-$2000 price from Apple right now. No HDR, 600nits (maybe enough for me), limited dimming zones, etc.
Studio 5k: 600nit, non-HDR, no local dimming at all ?!?
Pro Display XDR 6k: 1000nit, HDR, 576 dimming zones
Just can't see spending $2k on that. Best price would be like a refurb - 15% sale for $1300-1500ish.

I’d like to see Apple stop adding so many useless features like new emojis/etc and start focusing on stabilities and bug fixes. I’d also like them to start doing an 18-24 month release cycle to help squash those bugs, but we all know Apple isn’t going to do that because it’s all about the 
How does a 12 month OS update cadence make apple more money when OS updates are free?I’d like to see Apple stop adding so many useless features like new emojis/etc and start focusing on stabilities and bug fixes.

Because Apple's product marketing starts at WWDC for each year. New devices and some plans are announced and the world also gets introduced to what Apple is up to to possibly in the future when they demonstrated the newest version of the OS's.
This yearly kick off each June is highly visible to the press, its akin to the major keynotes at CES for Apple.
What I would like to see is the supposed big Siri update launched alongside the Vision Pro in a few weeks. Not only would that encourage people to get the Vision Pro because Siri is one of the ways it is to be used, but also by the time the developers need to see it at WWDC they will have had time to come up with more ways to incorporate Siri and to their apps.
Exactly. Thanks for calling that out .. and freeing me from racking my brain and trying hopelessly to figure out what I was missing. lol
What does this have to do with the comment regarding a 18-24 month *OS* release cycle making money for Apple? The point that OS releases are free stands. Conflating Apple’s OS release cycle with Apple’s promotional cycle doesn’t change that.
In the real world, nothing is perfect unless you live in a utopian ecosystem. Once you realize this you become more knowledgeable about how systems world.
Foldable phones are just gimmicky and not practical. I will NEVER buy a foldable phone, even if it’s from Apple.
