Reply to comment by IronManConnoisseur in Apple Pay Later nears launch, company will use past spending with Apple to evaluate creditworthiness. by SUPRVLLAN

"We realize quite well that the Enterprise computer system is definitely overpowered in terms of twentieth-century computing applications. On the other hand, the history of computer technology has shown that each time a faster, more powerful computer becomes available, useful applications quickly follow to take advantage of the new machines, which in turn spurs computer designers to build still more powerful machines. One might expect that such trends will yield enormously powerful computers, which one might reasonably hope may significantly enhance the quality of life, as they apparently do for the men and women of the Enterprise."

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Apple Store Customer Claims Uber Driver Stole Their $2,000 Delivery Order and Apple Won't Offer Refund by StrongInteraction594

I literally had someone today tell me they ordered the phone online from Apple, selected the local 2 hour delivery option, it was an extra $9, and the order never came, then they got an email from Apple saying the order was canceled well after the phone was supposed to have already been there.

Sounds like this system is just not working. They need to either do the deliveries themselves, or hire contractors, not subcontract it out to a company that already doesn’t have the best reputation.

Reply to Why do modern phones overheat? by [deleted]

Yeah video calls can do it. Although the 14 Pro Max overall in my experience rarely gets warm even if I’m playing games or using the camera. But FaceTime after say 10 minutes gets it warm.
