I HATE APPLE

sorry for my barely-literate post

What akm said, really like mine.

Meantime, not Apple as such, but:

Starting October 1, smartphone customers with unlimited data plans may experience reduced speeds once their usage in a billing cycle reaches the level that puts them among the top 5 percent of heaviest data users. These customers can still use unlimited data and their speeds will be restored with the start of the next billing cycle. Before you are affected, we will provide multiple notices, including a grace period.

^^ FU at&t

"grace period" is usually a wording used for forgiveness of going over a mutually agreed-upon limit, correct? like bills or my mortgage may have a two or three day grade period for payment, or if they allowed five minutes over overage on a 200 minute plan, that'd be a grace period

changing the terms to "btw, it's degraded service once you hit this point" means that their unlimited plan is no longer unlimited!

I really like our appletv, it seemed like a good way to spent $100 particularly since I can stream all the itunes library to the stereo with it

That's why I got one. We don't have Netflix here because we are third world.

really happy this works http://safarikeywordsearch.aurlien.net/ without fucking around with SIMBL

Damn that is perfect. Thanks.

the "opening a subfolder" animation in list view is ridiculously annoying ... how do i turn this off?

oh my god, making unused space in the preview windows have a "frosted glass" effect is so stupid

You can't open the application slsk because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

I've been using iSoul as a slsk alternative for a while

And what do you know, a major update for Apple TV software:

http://www.macrumors.com/2011/08/01/apple-tv-software-update-adds-streaming-of-purchased-tv-shows/

In brief:

Streaming of purchased shows
Vimeo support
Apparently YouTube playlist support

Probably other stuff.

so apparently if you use an iphone on at&t's network you *must* have a data plan and if you don't they sign you up for one automatically

fuckers

might just be me being dumm but

seems a bit counterintuitive/hard to access the system folder on lion

it's ok apple, i never wanted to use wifi anyway. perhaps this is also a new feature?

seems a bit counterintuitive/hard to access the system folder on lion

what's a folder?

so I was having issues with my laptop battery but the machine ran fine plugged in. Took it to the apple store a few hours ago, "genius" fussed with it, the thing stopped booting. He claims water damage was already there and says he'll have the MagSafe thing replaced for $40 but didn't seem optimistic tag would fix the problem.

So if I had a working laptop when I walked it (he saw that it booted fine before he mucked with it) do I have any recourse here or am I just out a laptop?

tag that would fix the problem.

i would be screaming so loud at a manager right abt now

yeah I would have asked to see the manager, made a scene, casually mention that I was a level 5 top supreme poster at ILX some mac forum

yeah for real

yeah if the MagSafe replacement doesn't fix everything nice and tidy I plan on asking for a manager and try to calmly explain that from this store I've bought two iPhones and three laptops and etc etc and wtf guys

well actually a manager called me as I was finishing that post. I explained to him that I brought in a booting computer and that an smokies dicked with it and it wouldn't boot and then he screamed water damage. The manager was like "whoa uh well if the MagSafe replacement doesn't fix it we'll cover all repair cost I'm so sorry" so yeah. Thanks dudes.

smokies genius

I should really pay attention to iPhone autocorrect.

THX SMOKIES

http://www.stormfront.co.uk/ this apple shop has opened in my local shopping centre.

welp.

yeah my mum told me abt the r0mf0rd one, i thought she'd made some mistake

xp Apple iHate

Really unfortunate name.

I can't copy a Word doc! Error code 8003. Google search is all about time machine backups which is HELPFUL.

lion has brought my 15" 2008 mbp to its knees. any articles out there on how to speed this back up?

(turned off fonts, thanks)

don't use safari

safari is junk

yeah but firefox is a dog on my machine ? whattodo.jpg

chome?

ugh

?

integrated search/address bar alone makes chrome worth it imo

ff has that, although they do different things.

still have no idea why when you type a search in the location bar safari can't figure it out.

because it is stupid and ugly

and slow and it sucks

it also fucked my mom
