Well, if you know so much about A.I. and such, why not craft a MUD client for those that play those games? Lol sorry to be off-topic, but my gosh we have all these programmers on list, and no MUD client that works well with 10.10 and doesn’t crash every 30 minutes or so. > On Jun 6, 2015, at 1:2

Thanks Devon for seeing past some kind of weird polemic some people in this mailing list are stuck on. I was just raising a tech question, issue, debate, whatever. But it seems not everyone is a computer science student or someone working everyday, including with apple (I won’t say more) on maki

In fact, When I am done with my final exams, I am heading to Cambodia with 200 donated macs to teach blind students skills in voice over, with an NGO called Krusar thmey. The IT staff there is also blind and is excited to use the mac platform as they know a lot about its positives. See, I’m not

What would you have us all do? If you are so concerned about the direction Apple is headed, the smart thing for you to do is to donate all your Apple possesions to your favorite charity and move on. You are out of line to come down on those of is who either do not share your concerns or

By the way Saben, So you’re scared of your data being collected though you hand your life to the company? Itunes, your email, your music on the cloud, your files on the cloud? You really are this naive about how everything really works not only in technologies but also in the socio political fa

Again, y’all didn’t even get the essence of the concern. the concern is about apple adopting a technology or Artificial intelligence technique that other tech companies are adopting which will surpass what any of you can imagine. I can say this, being at the uni’s computer labs with other peers

Wow, Saben you’re totally sucked into the apple paradigm and can’t even look at the other side of the coin, only pigeon holing anything coming out of business insider (which incidentally takes a lot of interesting covers from all angles) as a money making scheme. You also think just because not

I do not know if many people, with brains that cannot comprehend legalese, will take the time to read terms of service and user agreements every time they are updated, if in fact they read them at all. I have no clue if Apple has me on the receiving end of anything but the great produict

Hang on a minute. You’re concerned about Apple’s continued business viability in spite of overwhelming evidence of their success, because unlike those guys over at Facebook and Google, they don’t make gobs of money by harvesting user data for free services, and your explaining your justificatio
