You don’t make a quarterly revenue of almost 20 billion dollars by keeping prices the same instead of gouging your customers when the opportunity arises.

@atpfm tangentially related to the discussion of AirPods Pro as hearing protection, I usually wear my AirPods Max as ear defenders when I'm mowing the lawn. Every time, without fail, my Apple Watch will give me a Loud Environment warning. I really wish the watch could interrogate the phone to discover that I'm wearing AirPods Max in noise-cancelling mode.

On the web it is being “fireballed”. On Mastodon it is being “Melt(on)ed”. Always a pleasure @lisamelton!!

Them: How was your weekend?

Me: Tiring! I finally put in all that Waynescoting I've been meaning to do!

Them: Ha! It's not “Waynescoting”! It’s “wainscoting”!

Me: ... Well, shit.

Transferring an eSIM during migration between two iPhones was a remarkably straightforward experience today. This was my first migration post eSIM adoption and I had visions of lengthy support conversations with my carrier to make it work.

I was convinced that nothing was more straightforward than SIM eject and manual transfer. The reality was so smooth that I’m probably going to convert my kids’ phones over to eSIMs ASAP now.

DHL can feck right off with their delivery date of 25th of September. Failing to deliver a day of release iPhone on iPhone release day is like a war crime, right?

Got this email today; can’t believe the iCloud team didn’t wait and offer me the new tiers. It’s like one part of the company doesn’t talk to the other. Doomed.

What if the best value you can give to shareholders is making a better world?

It’s an orange vinyl night apparently.

Hello to my new followers and job people.

I’m iain, a remote macOS developer based in the UK. I’ve had 20+ years experience of being remote so I know how to handle it.

For the last 8 years I worked on Visual Studio for Mac and was responsible for making it accessible and rewriting the UI shell into native Cocoa. I miss it, it was a good IDE and a good project RIP. I know hoW to write Swift&ObjC as well as C#.

I also have a passion for media based apps and write sample editors and VJ apps for fun (no profit). I like writing apps.

So #fedihire whatcha got for me?
