  You'll make WAY more money if you stop trusting something because it makes sense IN THEORY Getting plenty of comments sounds great IN THEORY, but 99% of them are almost always tirekickers and don't indicate potential buyers Selling at top of funnel after using spray and pray content sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize top of funnel content is outside a funnel so its guaranteed to attract mainly people who would never pay you Shipping new product updates publicly sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize other people with more experience can now clone your offer in 1 hour and market it better (you are also just procrastinating instead of making money) Giving up after 20 DM/Cold Emails sounds great IN THEORY, until you learn statistically you will make no money unless you send 650-1000 Doing lifestyle marketing with Ferrari's and Penthouses and Private Jets sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize that just makes you look like a moron Making your entire goal retiring your parents sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize not everyone has poor third world country parents Hiring early sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize you have no idea how to write an SOP, and nobody will ever be as good as you at your job in the early stages Depending the Apple Store to make software sales sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize you are now dependent on a system that can remove you whenever they want for whatever reason (and you still have zero idea how to drive traffic yourself, make sales yourself, or build a customer acquisition system yourself) Earning all your income from YouTube views sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize there's a 21 year old selling ebooks on Instagram borrowing traffic who's lapping you in profit every month (and unlike you if he loses a YouTube channel he doesn't lose all his income) Building a landing page using a framer template/lovable sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize you maximized aesthetics and destroyed your conversion rate (because you have zero idea how to write actual copy and now your site looks like a clone of every other landing page) Spending $200k on a ******* dance theory degree sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize you just blew $200k you could have spent 5% of that on a mentor and hit $30k/mo in just 1 year Posting "Insane Value" on the timeline sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize you are sophisticating the market and years from now you're going to see all the sh#t you charged thousands of dollars for are now common sense and available everywhere for free Reading 100 Books every year sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize most of the OG books teach the same fundamentals, and you could easily have absorbed all their most important lessons using Notebooklm over night instead of spending 365 days reading platitude drivel and irrelevant personal stories they put in between the actual value inside the book Being afraid to pay for high quality help sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize the broke guy who saved up the $600-$5k and invested in a good mentor is now making $30k/mo, and you're still under $2k/mo despite starting at the same time Posting mainly platitude drivel every single day to drive impressions toward your middle of funnel sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize everyone now thinks you're ret#rded because you don't seem to have an original thought about anything whatsoever (stop trying to be Kieran Drew, Dan Koe, or Justin Welsh) Not following your mentor's instructions sounds great IN THEORY, until you realize the only reason you're doubting yourself is because you don't have his/her experience, and because they already went through that self doubt and figured it out anyway, you not listening to them is the only reason you are not making money We solve every single one of these problems and bottlenecks in DPU btw (no audience required) Godspeed, Ian

  A guy walked into an Apple Store to buy a MacBook Air. He walked out having spent $2,100 on a $999 laptop. He thought he made smart choices the whole time. His brother in law, who worked Apple retail for 9 years, watched the receipt and just shook his head. In the parking lot he said: "You didn't buy a laptop today. You bought seven upsells wrapped around a laptop. The storage tier. The AppleCare pitch. The trade in number. The 'while you're here' accessories. None of it is random. Every rep is trained to hit those seven moments in that order." He broke down 9 tricks Apple retail uses and the counter move for each one. Two months later the brother bought his own MacBook using the playbook. Same store. Same model. $760 less. Here's everything he said.

  We finally got something from Apple that brings us one step closer. We got declined, but we only need to fix the issue and apply again. We need to add Face ID or a password to the app. After that, we should be in the Apple Store. Be ready. Givest will be the future of RWA on-chain. It’s never been this easy to send a stock. Soon, you’ll be able to send stocks like it was an SMS (like, for real).

  @dhh In case you’re wondering how he set this up: Download Tailscale: creates the secure private network between both devices. Dowload Termius on playstore or apple store: the terminal app running on the Fold. SSH: connects Termius to his remote computer or VPS. Install Codex/Claude on the server: runs on the remote machine as the coding agent. The Fold is the interface; the real development environment and computing power remain on the remote machine.

  @DisneyScoopGuy Honestly the hourly call center support dude (or dudette) doesn’t know **** all. Ask for a higher tier of support and that you’re willing to wait for a call back or go through email if need be. Also a good time to visit an Apple Store as someone there will have incentive to fix it for you and not just get you off the phone.

  After a 750 km road trip from home, our @cybertruck threw the PCS2_a094 error. Apparently it’s a well-known issue that disables all AC charging. The truck will only charge at a Supercharger. Tesla’s response? A repair appointment 3 weeks from now, and they actually tried to reassure me by saying Supercharging would be free. So I guess I’m supposed to waste an hour every few days driving 9 km to the nearest Supercharger, waiting for an 80% charge, then driving back home. That’s completely absurd. If this is a known failure, why isn’t there a recall? Why are owners expected to live with a vehicle that suddenly loses a core function? And the service experience keeps getting worse. Last time I drove to the Service Center, waited 3 hours, only to be told the tires they had ordered never arrived. I had to come back two weeks later. @Tesla seems to have very little respect for their customers’ time. The attitude is starting to remind me of those teenage Apple Store geniuses who ask whether you’ve installed the latest software update when your battery is physically dead. Love the truck. The service? It’s becoming harder and harder to defend.

  does anyone else remember when @Apple was a good company with great products? back when apple store associates used to help you with your issues instead of upselling? back when their devices used to work properly for longer than 6-12 months? when they use to innovate technology?

  Went to @Apple store in Arndale to diagnose/fix my screen that’s been going dark & they told me the screen & battery were done for & it’ll cost like 600 quid to fix; advised me to get a new one instead 😩. In the meantime I’ll just keep connecting it to my TV w/ HDMI 😩😭😭😭.

  Just wanted to share an update regarding this issue. I spoke with one of Apple's Senior Advisors in Indonesia, and they explained that my replacement request couldn't be approved because Indonesia doesn't have an Apple Store—only Apple Authorized Service Provider. The Apple Authorized Service Provider denies to replace my phone. They suggested that I visit an Apple Store in Singapore or Malaysia instead, as those are the closest countries to me with official Apple Stores, and they should be able to replace my phone there. Will I fly to Singapore or Malaysia just for a replacement? Definitely not. Plane tickets aren't cheap these days. I'll treat this as a lesson learned, and hopefully it can be a lesson for you guys too—especially if you live in Indonesia or another country without an Apple Store. Do I blame Apple? No. They actually offered to replace my phone from the very beginning, but I chose not to accept it. That said, I really wish Apple would open an official Apple Store here in Indonesia.

  Apple Is Testing AI Powered 'Live Notes' to Streamline Genius Bar Appointments. Apple is testing a new artificial intelligence feature called Live Notes, designed to make Genius Bar appointments more efficient for both customers and Apple Store employees. Instead of a Genius Bar employee manually writing down everything discussed during a repair appointment, Live Notes uses AI to listen to the conversation and generate a transcript in real time. The feature only works if both the customer and the employee give their consent, making it an opt-in system rather than something that's enabled automatically. Once the conversation is finished, the AI generated transcript is saved directly to the employee's iPad and becomes part of the repair record. This creates a detailed log of what was discussed, including the customer's description of the issue, troubleshooting steps, recommendations, and any repair decisions made during the appointment. The biggest advantage is that employees can spend more time interacting with customers instead of constantly typing or taking handwritten notes. Rather than dividing their attention between the customer and their iPad, they can focus on diagnosing the problem, answering questions, and explaining repair options while the AI handles the documentation in the background. For customers, this could also lead to more accurate repair records. Important details are less likely to be forgotten or recorded incorrectly, which can help if a customer returns for a follow-up visit or if another Apple technician needs to continue the repair later. Having a complete transcript ensures everyone has access to the same information. The feature also has the potential to improve efficiency across Apple's retail stores. By automating notetaking, Genius Bar appointments may move faster, employees could handle more customers throughout the day, and the quality of documentation could become more consistent across different locations. Although Apple is currently testing Live Notes in only some stores, it reflects the company's broader strategy of integrating AI into everyday services. Rather than using AI only for consumer-facing features, Apple is also exploring ways it can streamline internal workflows and improve the overall customer experience. If the trial proves successful, Live Notes could eventually become a standard feature at Genius Bars worldwide.

  Business as usual Many people wrote today about Telegram being removed from the App Store, which sparked a mild panic, and even the Gram token reacted by falling to $1.29 on some exchanges. But there's really no reason to panic. Here's why: - Telegram was already removed in 2018: Apple also removed the official client and Telegram X due to user content issues. - WhatsApp, Discord, and TikTok have all faced similar "bans" due to content issues at various times. Twitter was on the verge of being banned several times. When removed from the Apple Store, smartphones with the app already installed continued to function normally, and access to the app was not affected. As Apple representatives and the messenger itself later officially confirmed, the brief removal was caused by just one user who was distributing strictly prohibited content on the platform that violated App Store rules. Due to automated algorithms or a harsh initial complaint, apps used by a billion people are at risk of being blocked on the iOS platform. This is more positive for Telegram users, and here's why: -Prompt removal: Telegram moderators immediately identified the offender, blocked their account, and completely purged the destructive content. -Direct dialogue with Apple: The developers immediately reported to App Store censors, confirming the vulnerability had been fixed. -Irony instead of panic: The entire process took about an hour and a half. Immediately after returning to the store, Telegram's official account on social media X responded to the incident with the legendary Mark Twain quote: "Rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated," along with an apple emoji. The Gram token itself quickly returned to the point at which the incident occurred. This was an excellent opportunity to go long on Gram or buy a lot of promising memecoins, which provided good entry points. You have to look for the positive in everything.

  As great as the iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 betas have been, the watchOS 27 beta is atrocious. Siri doesn’t work for HoneKit controls and it’s super slow for checking weather and other things compared to iOS and iPadOS 27. I might have to take a trip to the Apple Store to revert my watch back.

  @bowscan Nope. What is his name, if this isn’t a scam? He launched this project on Robinhood and tricked buyers into investing in a product, and then walked away from it less than 24 hours later. Not, hey this is a memecoin, but a real project. Either way I’m going to report ******** out of it. He used Apple Store to create this X account, so it will be easy to track him down.

  African AI has an economy problem. We don’t have an Apple Store in Nigeria. We don’t have that kind of purchase power. Until we create proper consumer purchasing power we will just be renting ambition from foreign capital. Data is where we are and we need to do that well to get to the next level.

  My wife went to @Apple store to get my exchanged iPhone. No box, nothing. She had to take it out of the box which “is used to send back the broken iPhone”. What a nice customer service. I’ll pass over the fact that the guy was totally mansplaining her and she had to pay MY bill because Apple can’t find a way to send me a paiement link for me to pay it. When did Apple got so bad at customer care ?
