  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, I am waiting for my refund check for the products I’ve paid inflated prices as you passed those tariffs down to your customers. Fortunately, I bought everything through the Apple Store and all the applicable transaction details should be on my account.

  @MAGA_X_Times @udreams30 Yep. THAT’S the scam I expected from these ‘gift cards’. No accountability. No recourse. Just a chorus of “not our responsibility” and the theft of your cash. The scam is that thieves take many cards from the store’s rack to their ‘shop’… and carefully open them to steal the alphanumeric code inside. Then, they carefully put the ‘package’ back together, replace them on the store’s display rack and, wait for someone to load money on the card. Then they immediately load that balance into THEIR ‘account’ using the stolen code. Started with Apple Store cards then spread to all of them. There is NO SECURITY on these things. Whoever uses the code first… gets the cash. Merchants couldn’t care less. They get the money no matter what. So, there is ZERO motivation for them to fix the problem as addressing it would necessarily require them to ADMIT there IS a problem. So… the whole gift card thing is a scam from every angle. Unless you can purchase the card DIRECTLY at the actual merchant and verify the balance before leaving the store, your ‘gift’ will likely disappear before the recipient can use it. Even with these precautions, the cards cannot be left where just anyone can access them. They should be dispensed by a managerial type. It’s the only way.

  @nafoviking Glad you like it, I worked in an apple store until earlier this year and those things were SUCH SLOW SELLERS. Absolutely nothing wrong with them, except the charging port sensor was to sensitive to humidity. Just a perfectly OK iPhone.

  MARCUS CHEN STACKED 30 MAC MINIS AND BUILT AN AI SERVER FARM. A SINGLE $599 MAC MINI CAN REPLACE YOUR $200/MONTH CLAUDE CODE ACCOUNT, COSTING JUST $3 IN ENERGY. Two months ago, a developer posted his Claude Code bill on Reddit: $170 in just 10 days. Someone replied: “I bought a Mac Mini M4. I haven’t paid Anthropic anything since then.” That same week, Mac Minis vanished from Apple Store shelves. The M4 chip delivers 120 GB/s of memory bandwidth and a unified memory architecture. The CPU and GPU share the same memory pool, so the model loads just once and both access the same data. In practice, a $599 Mac Mini can run AI better than many $1,500 Windows PCs equipped with dedicated GPUs. Since January 2026, Ollama has started supporting Anthropic’s Messages API format. With just one environment variable, Claude Code connects directly to your local Mac Mini. The same interface. Zero API cost. $0 per request. A developer who uses AI intensively can spend $459 a month across Claude Code Max, ChatGPT Pro, Gemini, Cursor, and Copilot. That adds up to $5,508 a year. The Mac Mini investment pays for itself in about three months. After that, the operating cost is around $3 in electricity. Uber rolled out Claude Code to 5,000 engineers and would have burned through a significant chunk of its $3.4 billion AI budget for 2026 in just four months. Whoever controls the infrastructure today could be years ahead of everyone else tomorrow.

  @devops_nk I had the same issue on my mbp m4. The official Apple Store diagnosed it as a motherboard failure. My warranty had expired, so it costed me 68k to repair. Since yours is still under warranty, I’d recommend taking it to Apple instead of trying temporary fixes.

  Star Trek writer Peter David on why he hated Star Trek: Discovery: "I have no idea what any of it looks like. Every single scene was apparently filmed in a power outage. The sets are dark, the costumes are dark, everything is so dámņëd dark. I mean, yes, people said that the new Enterprise in the Abrams film looked like an Apple store, but at least you could see it. I can’t see crap in ST:D. " Is this a common problem with modern tv shows?

  Just got an official Apple Store Keyboard with the fingerprint reader. The thing with Macbooks is that the moment you lose AppleCare for them and the keyboard breaks, there is ZERO way to fix said keyboard. (Hidden secret of Macbook keyboard explaining why in comments) So when at home use your peripherals you extend the life of your on-laptop keyboard when you obviously have to use it when traveling.

  Sam Altman taught 720 startups one formula where luck is a random number between 0 and 10,000. Stanford, 2014. The opening lecture of CS183B was so packed he asked for a bigger auditorium. He was 28, a dropout from this same school 9 years earlier, now running Y Combinator. The formula he wrote on the board: idea × product × team × execution × luck and you only control 4 of the 5, because the fifth one goes to 10,000. His words, not a metaphor. Then he did something strange: he handed half of his own lecture to Dustin Moskovitz, co-founder of Facebook, whose entire job was to talk students out of starting companies. Dustin showed one table. Employee 100 at Dropbox with standard 10 basis points made $10 million, employee 250 at Facebook made $200 million, and employee 1,000 joining in 2009, when everyone said it was too late still made $20 million. Your own startup? Best case you build a $100 million company and keep 10% after dilution. $10 million, same as employee 1,000, minus your health. Dustin knew the price because he paid it: at 21 he was throwing his back out every 6 months from pure anxiety, always on call, unable to quit a founder who leaves wears the black eye for a decade. Then Altman twisted the lecture back with advice that cut against everything in the room. The best ideas look terrible at the start: the 13th search engine, the 10th social network limited to college kids, sleeping on strangers' couches. If an idea sounds good, too many people are already building it. Make something 100 people love instead of something 10,000 people like. Ben Silbermann recruited Pinterest's first users by walking up to strangers in Palo Alto coffee shops, then resetting every browser in the Apple Store to Pinterest's homepage until they threw him out. And the only valid reason to start is that you can't not do it. Dustin built Asana at night, after full days at Facebook, unpaid and unasked. "The idea was beating itself out of our chest." The rest is a number between 0 and 10,000.

  Thanks to @Apple slow *** resolving on Apple Store issues, I have missed a limited time purchase. Taking 3 whole business days to resolve a purchase out of registered Apple Storeregion issue in 2026. As if people can't migrate overseas while using the same store is insane.

  Setup 9: She replaced the battery instead of buying a new AirTag. After 11 months, his keys AirTag stopped chirping as loudly. The Precision Finding response was slower. The battery was dying. He assumed the AirTag was disposable. Most people do. He was about to buy a replacement for $29. She took the AirTag, pressed down on the stainless steel back, twisted counterclockwise, and popped it open. Inside was a standard CR2032 battery the same coin battery that powers watches, calculators, and car key fobs. Available at every pharmacy, grocery store, and gas station in America. $3 for a single battery. $6 for a 4-pack on Amazon. She popped out the old battery, dropped in a new one, twisted the back clockwise, and the AirTag chirped to life. Full power. Ready for another year. The entire replacement took 15 seconds. No tools. No appointment. No Apple Store visit. No subscription. She told him this was the part most people don't understand about AirTags. There's no monthly fee. No annual subscription. No service plan. The AirTag costs $29 once, the battery costs $3 per year, and the Find My network the billion-device global tracking infrastructure is free forever. The total cost of ownership for a single AirTag over 5 years is roughly $44. Compare that to Tile, which charges $2.99/month for premium tracking features $36/year, $180 over 5 years. Or Samsung SmartTag, which works only within Samsung's smaller device network. The AirTag costs less per year, uses the largest tracking network on earth, and runs on a battery you can buy at a gas station. She'd been replacing the batteries on all 7 of their AirTags once a year for $21 total. The entire family's tracking system wallet, keys, car, dog, backpack, 2 suitcases costs $21/year to maintain.

  Update regarding this issue: I just visited an authorized Apple Service Center. They told me that if Apple approves the replacement, it will take about 1–2 months because the replacement unit needs to be imported from Singapore. Even though I have the case number and a letter from the Apple Store Shinsaibashi, they said those documents don’t guarantee that my iPhone will be replaced. If Apple declines the replacement request, I’ll need to contact Apple Support again. I’m really hoping they’ll replace my device. In the meantime, I’ll be using my other iPhone as my main phone.

  24+ hours later my @TMobile eSIM still won’t activate on my brand new iPhone. I’ve spent hours with @TMobileHelp, visited a T-Mobile store for over an hour, and even went to the Apple Store. Apple believes the issue is on T-Mobile’s provisioning side.

  What I learned from the book "Apple in China" is that communism means gunning down people in the brand new Apple Store who are being unruly and anti-social, so who can say if it is all that bad.

  Most people in crypto are still chasing the next 10x narrative while completely missing what’s actually being built right now. $GARLY is building something unique and new. 99% of crypto projects that are born are larps/farms and often copy and paste just to farm and that’s it. Pure crap. People buy in FOMO projects that are only pump and dump — as we just saw with solana:HmTi3CQfKfXWbn1tNoiAxH7GzMV7L3tDAmPWabZEBAGS , which went from 4 million market cap down to 200k in just 3/4 days. Meanwhile it fades solid projects with legit teams that are developing something unique like $GARLY. $GARLY isn’t another recycled narrative. It’s the first real AI personal safety companion in crypto — privacy-first, proactive, and designed for the exact moment you can’t press a button. No other crypto project is doing this. The only real competitors are traditional companies already valued in the billions. Meanwhile the problem @appGarly is solving affects billions of people worldwide. Holders are growing every single day. The team is shipping real updates almost daily: • App submitted for final Google Play review • Apple Store (iOS) setup starting now • Jupiter verification submitted (likes needed to fast-track) • Premium version coming soon (name chosen by the community) • 30 automated test suites + 1532 checks, zero failures This is what an actual category-defining project looks like when it’s still early. Don’t sleep on it at just ~150k Mcap now. Millions are coming. $Garly 🧄💎

  Apple support has gone down the gutter. AppleCare+ doesn't help either. Waste of money My airpod pro 3 has a hardware defect where the right pod inner hardware starts to shuffle on long runs They denied my warranty claim because their 'test' didn't detect anything in a stationary environment I had an appt at the Apple Store scheduled but it took 30 mins to chat with someone. Another 30 minutes to chat with a manager All for them to say they can't help and that their test was rigorous enough to simulate my 'long run' use case. Sure I could've sworn that their Support used to be much better! Maybe it's location dependent

  🚨 #BREAKING : The @telegram app has just been removed from the @Apple store. It had been removed because it had made "inappropriate content" available to users, founder Pavel Durov said. The removal came soon after Telegram launched an unfinished version of its "experimental" Telegram X app. Apple took down both the official messaging app and the one still being worked on.

  @Escargot4U @0x_Mattt The GME e-commerce issue was with regulation. Remember Gary Gendler was in charge at the time and heavy issues with the Apple Store. He was smart to scrub it back then. I think you’ll like Ryan. This guy picks up the phone and calls customers personally all the time.
