  @yourtechguyyy That’s sucks! Getting a jobs nowadays is harder now due to tariffs and economy crisis. I hope, you do get hired in a better job somewhere else I have a job and is employed. Working at a retail store but it is not a Tech store and me and my mom works there. But I’m trying soo hard to quit that job because of the work load and the conditions that make me wanna leave 😭 Right now, I’m thinking of either working at the Apple Store or Best Buy but sadly, English is not my first language and I struggle to speak English fluently so no way I would be able to communicate with a customer, even tho I know how to fix a problem when it comes to Technology stuff Wishing you best of luck with getting the best jobs and I hope, one day, you’ll be employed and earn some cash and buy your dream house and car, plus Apple products too 🥹

  @jwblackwell Anyone with any sense has now switched off system updates on their mobile. This will cause significant issues with viruses. Also it could totally tank the new phone market as people realise they are buying crippled phones. Meanwhile direct sales of China phones without crippleware will be rife. Samsung, Google and Apple will be badly damaged. It might even see the advent of Harmony OS taking off where it has been restricted for so long. If having access to the Google or Apple store means the government controlling your life, a whole generation of users will abandon the status quo.

  Reclaiming Your Device The man walked out of the Apple Store that afternoon with his original battery still inside his phone and his eighty nine dollars still safely tucked into his pocket. A week later, he sent the Genius Bar worker a short message. He was finishing his entire work day with forty percent of his battery still remaining. He had not touched the Low Power Mode button a single time. We have somehow accepted a strange reality where we think our expensive modern devices just naturally degrade in a few short months. But the truth is much simpler than that. Tech companies design these phones to constantly harvest data, build their corporate networks, and serve their massive ecosystems silently in the background. They are actively using your hardware and your battery life to do their heavy lifting. Stop letting your own phone work against you. Take fifteen minutes tonight, sit down on the couch, and go through this list. You bought the phone to serve you, so make absolutely sure it actually does.

  The biggest challenge for all consumer apps is acquiring users at the lowest cost. Sweatcoin was having the same issue before it exploded with new users. It was able to acquire users with traditional paid ads, but its CPI would always remain high. Sweatcoin's growth stayed linear until it decided to try a new strategy. And that strategy was mass UGC marketing. Sweatcoin partnered with creators and created organic feeling content. High volume testing of viral hooks and formats. It took these winning viral pieces of content and turned them into Spark Ads. UGC powered paid media. Sweatcoin never had to burn ad spend by guessing on creatives when the creatives were already proven to convert and get engagement. Sweatcoin 10x'd it's ROAS using this viral content made by creators. Hiring tons of creators and ad spend sounds costly, but in reality, Sweatcoin was able to lower its CPI by 53%. In fact, on Apple Store Sweatcoin had the lowest CPI possible. 60 million users acquired. And it all started with one shift in thinking. Mass UGC + UGC powered paid media = 📈 🚀 user acquisition Stop guessing on creatives. Let the market tell you what works. Then put money behind what's already proven. Organic tests it. Paid scales it. Simple as that.

  ok so I just saw the most unhinged tech setup and I need to talk about it someone stacked like 50+ Mac Minis on a shelf. yellow shelf. looks like a construction site met an Apple Store. and honestly?? this is lowkey genius and I'm mad nobody told me sooner because here's the ***** secret the M-series Mac Mini might be the best value compute unit on the market right now. per watt, per dollar, per cubic inch of space. it destroys traditional server hardware in efficiency. it just doesn't LOOK like serious infrastructure so people dismiss it but some guy in a random office somewhere said you know what, I don't need a $400k rack from Dell. I need 60 of these bad boys, some ethernet, and a dream. and now he has a build/test pipeline that probably runs faster than your company's entire cloud setup no loud fans. no special power requirements. no "enterprise support contract" where someone charges you $800 to restart a service. just apples. wall to wall apples. the chair sitting lonely in the corner of the shot is sending me. someone WORKS there. they just sit next to the apple army every day and think nothing of it we are not the same #ai #macmini #macmini4

  I bought a set of AirPods Pro from Laptops Direct about a year ago. I have a problem with the left AirPod charging, and I went to an Apple Store to have them look at it today. Astonishingly, the serial number is tied to a date of purchase from 2024 in a Walmart in the United States. Avoid this retailer.

  I have at least one theory concerning that, and it all boils down to passing the buck. The companies insuring these lootboxes for Nvidia will likely insist upon installing some sort of odious security measures in the hardware. Much like the store model iPhones at the Apple store.

  His iPhone battery health dropped to 78% after just 1 months of use. He took it to the Apple Store expecting a free battery replacement under warranty. The Genius Bar technician ran every diagnostic. The battery passed every test. The phone wasn't defective. Then she said something he wasn't expecting: "This battery isn't broken. It's been worn down. There are 8 default settings on your iPhone right now that are aging the battery faster than they should and they're all on by default. Apple ships every iPhone with them enabled. Most customers come in here thinking the battery is bad. It's not. The settings are." He asked the obvious question: "Why doesn't Apple turn them off by default?" She didn't answer. She just opened Settings and started walking him through them. Here's everything she showed him in the next 10 minutes. 🧵

  Her Apple Watch battery dropped to 78% after just one year. She wore it daily. She charged it overnight. She used it like every other Apple Watch owner she knew. Yet her battery had degraded faster in 12 months than her iPhone had in 3 years. She took it to the Genius Bar, expecting them to confirm it was defective. The technician ran every diagnostic. "Your watch isn't broken. It's just been running 24 hours a day doing things it doesn't need to do. There are 4 default settings on every Apple Watch that hammer the battery overnight. Apple knows. They've known since the first Series 1 launched. They don't change the defaults." She asked why. He gave the same answer Apple Store employees have learned to give silence. Then he opened the Watch app on her iPhone and walked her through everything. Here's what he showed her. 🧵

  i made 3 apps published on apple store last month, and only 1 of them made money, around 430$, cuz the app was for solving a problem i was dealing with. the name is PingRev, it gives the new order alert on ios from woocommerce stores with cha-ching sound like shopify, and also showing analytics for all my site combined the other two apps: one app i modify from akinator, the other app i modify from slapmac: Fame Oracle and Baby Tap still havent made any dough yet

  The Apple Store is a joke. Went in last week to replace my iPhone battery. They had to order the part. Waited ~10 days, then got told: “Come in within 2 days or we might give the battery to someone else.” Made an appointment for today. Waited, then the rep says they can’t do the repair because “the system we use to track repairs is down.” Me: “You have the part. You have my phone. But you can’t install it because the computer is down?” Poor guy — not his fault. But the geniuses running the Apple Store aren’t quite as smart as they like to pretend. This is NOT the future.

  @Nibiru1000 I got a gas station down the street owned by Indians and I swiped my card in there one time and a few days later I had a bunch of random charges from an Apple Store, we don’t have an apple store in my area. They are lowlifes.

  12. The "Location-Based Alerts & Apple Ads" The Situation: You assume that seeing targeted ads is just the unavoidable cost of using the internet, and that occasional alerts from your phone are harmless and normal. The System Reality: Apple positions itself as a privacy-first company, but they still have a massive advertising business. Your phone is actively tracking your location, crossing digital geofences, and analyzing your proximity to retail locations to serve you geographically relevant Apple Store ads and location-based suggestions. The Technical Drain: Geofencing is expensive for a battery. The phone has to constantly calculate its distance from invisible barriers to know when to trigger an alert. It’s using your battery power to figure out how to market products to you more effectively. The Fix: Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → System Services → Toggle off "Location-Based Alerts", "Location-Based Suggestions", and "Apple Merchant ID". The Result: You completely sever the connection between your GPS hardware and Apple's internal marketing algorithms. You stop burning battery to get advertised to.

  back in 2023 I took it to a different Apple Store and my laptop was in worse condition (it was broken) but they repaired it so quickly. But this Apple Store was so terrible. all but one of the workers actually cared from the beginning when I spoke to them.

  Can’t find it because the search function is broken but I am thinking about the email exchange in the Epstein files involving Barak and Koren discussing headphones being returned at a specific Apple store location in NYC. Which was obviously coded talk about moving something
