I hate them and without a close look on the details they are just made for getting attention.

This article – a great read btw – contains statements of Apple’s Craig Federighi, SVP Software Engineering regarding an attack of Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai as well as the widespread criticism of Apple’s decision to store iCloud data in China on servers run by GCBD, a company owned by the provincial…

Imo the topic ‘Privacy’ is highly overrated.

Since years I find countless articles and endless discussions about privacy as well as articles drawing comparisons between companies you can create accounts with.

Sadly they are all worded in general terms.

That’s boring. Even if I ask people what it means for them that “Apple is great on privacy” and “Google’s business model is selling user data”…

I live in the ISAAN. It’s in central Thailand. The region is well-known for rice cultivation and poverty.

I took this shot with my iPhone 6s Plus today in the late afternoon. It’s hard work for the people here. It’s 40°.

Do you agree that it’s not the high-tech camera which makes a good photo? In my opinion it’s the knowledge and imagination standing behind the moment you took the shot.

Thanks…

About the iPhone backup

Important data is saved into various files within the backup folder of a computer when using the software dino iTunes to backup your iThing.

Btw, I hate this bloated tool combining the work of DJs with that of users who just want to manage their iOS devices. Developers, isn’t it possible for you to give us a clean UI focused on backup, file management, and restoring app specific content without…

Will this be Apple’s Next Big Thing?

Facebook will announce a new cryptocurrency this month. The project is called “Libra”. Facebook employees working on Libra can choose to be paid in FB-Coins (or whatever the currency will be named) or hard cash. A global launch could happen in 2020 for a user base much bigger than the Europe and the USA together. It’s reported that FB Coins will be tied to a “currency basket” rather than just the…

It would cause quite a headache

if Reminders and Calendar events stop syncing with your Apple Watch.

It happened to me in May for the first time in 3 years according to Murphy’s Law “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong”. ‘Reset Sync Data’ solved the problem with my 1st gen Apple Watch and my iPhone 6s Plus.

Here’s what you can do to fix the problem.

First check the connection of the two devices.

Apple’s 17-Bit OS in 2019

17-Bit not performance-capable?

Not at all although it sometimes slows a bit down because of a thermally overheated market for e-loot.

Beside some iOS, OSX, watchOS, and tvOS updates Apple also released a human update to its kernel, located in a spaceship, ready to launch for searching the next big thing.

Where’s Angela?

She once said …

“I don’t want to be a great executive without being a great…

Not necessary. China thinks differently.

The Chinese government could simply say that the presence of foreign hardware and security-protected operating systems violate its laws about data security and its right to access citizen data.

An example …

Launched in 2011, WeChat, China’s most popular messaging app, has been under surveillance. Any message sent through a WeChat group is monitored by the…

Are you tired of getting distracted by ad on small screens?

Me too.

Use the Reader View in Safari to focus on the things which matter.

I love these tiny features showing that developers put some thoughts into their work.

Thanks for surfing by.

The Tokay Gecko is much more annoying than notifications on your iThing. He’s crying the whole night and believe me, there’s no way to adjust the volume or apply the “Do Not Disturb” option.

Tim Cook told us at the TIME 100 Summit in April 2019:

“What it has done for me personally is I’ve gone in and gutted the number of notifications. Because I asked myself: ‘Do I really need to be getting…

I saw him at the Nurburgring F1 race and I feel sad.

He impersonated what Martin Luther King once told us:

If you can’t fly, then run, if you can’t run, then walk, If you can’t walk, then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.

In some way forget Apple’s Calendar. There are way too less options for alerts.

2 hours before a flight is ready for takeoff?

Google did a much better job with a perfect combination of options.

Just to remind you

This happened in September 2007.

“I have received hundreds of emails from iPhone customers who are upset about Apple dropping the price of iPhone by $200 two months after it went on sale. After reading every one of these emails, I have some observations and conclusions.

First, I am sure that we are making the correct decision to lower the price of the 8GB iPhone from $599 to $399, and that now…

is the best way to be and to stay happy. This is my Thai-style breakfast. Very tasty.

As always I took the shot with my dino, a very smart phone designed by Apple in California and born as a 6s Plus at Foxconn in China.

Have a nice weekend. Thanks for dropping by.

Don’t LOVE your iThing just LIKE it.

Sadly there are also other very special people leaving their distinctive traces (aka Fanboy DNA) in social networks most often trying to incite one of these useless and boring platform wars, predominantly about the pros and cons of Android and iOS.

Here’s just one example:

”Lol brainless samsungfags, if you hate iPhone so much, why do you care to watch it?…

Charging means staying connected

Hey Apple, is there a 75m cable available? It would cover the part of my garden in which I regularly have to cultivate fruit and vegetables.

1m of the magnetic charging cable for the Apple Watch with USB connector is €35 in the German Store. 0.3m with a USB-C connector is also €35. What? 1/3 of the length but the same price?

So the USB-C cable I’d like to have in advance of your next connector…

5G isn’t available yet

but hey Apple, I use your smart phones for more than 5 years. So I‘m not amused if you’re late to the party again with implementing a new technology.

If I would invest in a 2019 iPhone I‘ll keep it until at least 2025. Without 5G?

Admittedly we all don’t know what we have to pay for a 5G contract and it’s unclear which innovative options 5G will have but to not even have a piece of hardware not…
