Comment on Apple Rumored to Be Working on AirPods With Built-in Cameras

Someone correct me if I’m wrong here, but anyone feel like Apple is slowly having an…over-engineering problem?
The Apple Vision Pro, this… the new iPad Pros with FUCKING M4 CHIPS THAT ARE RUNNING IPADOS (???)
Like what is happening in their product development department lately?
They need to take their talent and apply it to stuff that could actually use it, rather than rehashing stuff that is already good. An Apple clothes dryer that actually can sense dry clothes and doesn’t break easily. An apple garage door that doesn’t suck. An Apple Ebike that lasts ages and is repairable (and gets people out of their cars).
I think an Apple bidet could be neat. A toaster, too.
Did you just put “easily repairable” and “Apple” in the same sentence?
The bidet is under development. It is going to have cameras to confirm cleanliness using ai.
… I don’t know if I trust Siri to wash my asshole tbh
Something tells me you wouldn’t like the coming AssID feature either.
I bought a fancy shmancy toaster and it sucks, matches my mixer but ruins my sammiches.
Yeah, it feels like no matter how much I spend on stuff like toasters, air fryers, or blenders, they just aren’t built like they were a couple of decades ago. It’s a drag to go through appliances that shouldn’t be disposable. Even high-end vaccums don’t last as long as they should, and when they do need parts, they are difficult to repair. Miele even got bought out, iirc.
That would probably disrupt the brand too much.

I just saw that clip a week or two ago and I’m still laughing at it every time I see an apple product

Listen, I can’t lie…my iPhone X is the best phone I’ve owned. Bought in 2017 and still going strong with promised support until 2026/27. I still have fond memories of “paying” my parents back for it (I was child labour 😀)

Huh? I was pretty sure it’d fall out of OS support this year. And without security patches, shudder

It still gets security updates, just not iOS17 support. My mum is on the 6s with iOS 15 and that still gets security updates. It’s my secondary phone, and in it’s lifetime l’ve had a two Pixels and a Samsung that I had to return for build faults (Pixel) or they stopped doing software updates/security updates.
There are many faults for Apple, but their iOS support can’t compare to any first party Android. iPhone owners don’t NEED to upgrade every two/three years, they do it because they’re dumbasses.

I bought a 14 pro and gave my nephew my X. Besides the island and the camera quality they are largely indistinguishable for almost all of my use-cases. And they are almost 5 years apart.

Or they have a ton of M4 sized wheels and it’s easier just to use the same wheel for everything
