  @Kate__KC @Sassafrass_84 @PigWar You are right about that. My son used to work at the Apple store fixing people's phones and iPads. He would talk about how easily they are broken, but then run out as soon as the new one hits the market and buy it. I hate to admit it, but I had my Blackberry until I was required to get my emails on my phone. I went out and got a Galaxy S4. Kept that for over 11 years.

  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, I discovered at the Apple Store that the serial number is tied to a date of purchase from 2024 in a Walmart in the United States. Avoid this retailer.

  Hello @ads, I think there is a problem with adding my app on the Ads platform. I keep getting this error but the id is available on both Google and Apple Store. Although, I tried another Package name and it worked but for this particular app, it's throwing error. What could be the reason.

  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

  Or change in the settings the lives stopped working. I’ve even taken my iphone13 to the Apple Store to see if the problem is there but it isn’t. And now the apps crashes every 2-3 mins and the time doesn’t build up and people don’t stay long enough where as in every stream before

  @vakifedits @gibbybaris I have the app before but it was malfunctioning so I deleted it to download it again, that’s how I didn’t see it on Apple Store. But I could login through the link gibby shared.

  @johnnylocal @WallStreetApes I buy a new iPhone fully from the Apple Store and it lasts 6 years with 1, maybe 2 battery replacements. Lol yeah some women will buy a new purse every few months. This is an American thing. I grew up in Canada and they don’t let it get this dire. My cousin had terrible habits

  @PhoenixCharts @Schmavid1 @NortonMpls It must be comforting to confidently write a daily fanfiction about how the biggest issues just so happen to be the handful of things you're already mad about. Yes babygirl, rioters burned down the Apple Store but not until after we'd decided to leave Amazing Thailand untorched.

  @MtSilvr @KirscheVerstahl I love the apple store. One day, you walk in and say you want an orange. You like oranges better. The store owner says, "everyone must want oranges," and starts selling oranges. Now, no one shows up to the apple store, and it goes out of business. This is the problem.

  @Apple @Apple There are Reddit posts dated from 2020 of others with the same issues. This is an ongoing issue. Your teams don't have the knowledge to fix this. Today alone, I've spoken to 8 representatives! Not including the ones in the Apple store.

  this is my plan for this month: 1. first, i’ll focus on nomi and try to build and ship the app on the apple store. 2. after that, i’ll start working on sortai. i want to make it a useful tool for founders to solve marketing problems, especially around ugc content and app marketing. 3. the third project could be a big b2b technical saas project. what’s your plan for this month? feel free to drop it below. i’d love to hear what you’re building. let’s go 🔥

  YES! Mac Mini at $599 is killing AI subscriptions Developers are massively ditching Claude Code, ChatGPT Pro, and Cursor — switching to local models running on Mac Mini M4. One Reddit post ("spent $170 in 10 days on Claude Code") triggered a wave: someone replied "bought a Mac Mini — haven't paid Anthropic since", and that same week the mini-computers disappeared from Apple Store shelves. Why it works:The M4 chip with unified memory (120 GB/s) runs large models more efficiently than a $1,500 Windows PC with a dedicated GPU. Since January 2026, Ollama supports the Anthropic API format — Claude Code connects to a local server with a single environment variable. Cost per request: $0. The math is simple:A heavy developer spends ~$459/month on AI subscriptions = $5,500+ per year. The Mac Mini pays for itself in under 3 months, after that — $3 a month in electricity. Marcus Chen took it furthest — he built a rack of 30 Mac Minis as his personal AI farm. Those who own the infrastructure today will have years of advantage tomorrow.

  Terrible experience at TRX’s Apple Store. Was minding my own business with my 14 year old walking in front of me when a staff said “make sure your child doesn’t press the glass”. Doesn’t seem like their store and company is too child friendly. Taking my money elsewhere.

  @Andrewislington I had to go to the Apple Store and they just plugged it into another Mac to restore it. I could have done it myself but I only own one, and no friends with Macs were nearby at the time hahaha. The main issue was that I hadn't backed anything up so lost loads of files oops

  @Sassafrass_84 @PigWar With Android some versions, you can rollback if need be, with Apple, they own everything on it, apps, etc. If Iphone crashes, you csn't roll bsck to previous version, you either wait for a software update, fix, or Apple Store.

  The Ultimate Takeaway: Taking Back Your Phone She walked out of the Apple Store at 2:45 PM. Her wallet was exactly as full as when she walked in. Her battery was at 82%. And for the first time in six months, she didn't feel a knot in her stomach about finding a wall plug. The Situation: We almost always blame the physical battery. We think our phones are just getting old, or broken, or that we simply use them too much. We accept living in a constant state of low-battery anxiety, carrying heavy power banks and tangled white cables everywhere we go like we are carrying life support. The System Reality: When you take a brand new smartphone out of the box, it is not actually set up to serve you. It is set up by default to serve app developers, advertisers, and the parent company. It is set up to constantly pull data, refresh feeds, track your location, and report back to base. The Technical Drain: Think about it: you are spending over a thousand dollars on a device, but out of the box, that device is working a full-time, 24/7 shadow job behind your back. It is burning through its own life span and your battery percentage to do things you never even asked it to do. The Fix: Take 12 minutes today to walk through these settings. Turn off the background noise. Shut down the silent trackers. Put up boundaries. Tell your apps they are only allowed to work when you physically tap on them and ask them to work. The Result: Two weeks later, the woman went to bed at 11:00 PM. She placed her phone on her nightstand to charge for the night. The screen lit up: 34%. This is not just about saving your battery life. It is about taking back ownership of your device. It is about getting a clear peace of mind and making sure you own your phone, instead of letting your phone own you.
