  Apple Store didn't gave me the reports Even after multiple requests I've raised. Not sure if this is problem with the brand or the country or their employees If the law is firm, reachable, strict and scary to all the cheap bastards, then it'll be a hell for CSR folks

  DANIEL CHEN BURNED $14,000 A MONTH ON H100s UNTIL HE WALKED INTO AN APPLE STORE AND BOUGHT 1,000 MAC MINIS. his AI startup was getting magic output and a death certificate at the same time. the cloud bill was eating the runway faster than the product could earn revenue so daniel ran the math on running it locally. one $599 mac mini m4 pulls 10-20 watts, costs $3 a month in electricity, and runs 24/7 forever. one $599 box replaces a $200/month subscription he racked 1,000 of them into a single facility. the whole stack draws less power than one nvidia server while pushing the same throughput then in january 2026 ollama added the anthropic messages API. now claude code itself connects to your local mac mini with one environment variable. same interface, zero API costs apple stores ran out of mac minis the same month. $599 one time beats $200 a month forever and the market figured it out before the press did the window is open. follow and bookmark before it closes.

  @AppleSupport I’ve now spent over 6 hours between Apple Store visits and phone support regarding an unresolved trade-in/store credit issue involving my iPhone upgrade. Senior Advisor escalation still has not resolved it and promised callbacks never occurred. Looking for Assis

  Crazy, I was searching the Apple Store for an app like the one I'm building with 0 results, and just today - 2 popped up. 1 with the exact name I was going with... Atleast I got the .app domain name It's going to come down to distribution once I release

  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.

  @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.

  @politigaymer I used to work at the Apple Store Genius Bar and they would definitely do that under extenuating circumstances (or when they couldn’t figure out the issue). But they would most certainly let you know if they did because it would improve your perception of the brand and service.

  @beverleyturner Yes. A colleague has same problem. When I went into Apple store. Advised to buy new phone with more storage. The new phone’s are want government expects you to purchase for the control features. Facial recognition even for banking. I’m not interested in paying out over £1000!

  So I updated my Apple IPhone a few days ago and today I get a message “No sim”. I take it into an Apple Store and they tell me to fix it it’ll cost me 500 dollars, so what I do? Just get a new IPhone. I should have listened to people who say never update your iPhone, but how can I not! #Apple

  8. Hire from hard mode. McNeill challenged hiring Apple retail people for Tesla. Apple store workers were often "order takers." He wanted Microsoft store people selling a slate two doors down from a MacBook Air. Hard products reveal real sales ability.

  @IM_Pritchard @InternetH0F Allowing you to fix your battery instead of being forced into buying a new one is a good thing actually because a lot of manufacturers like apple will brick your phone if you attempt to fix it outside of a Apple Store

  You have no clue what you are talking about, moron. Take some time out @AlexErrera2 . Go for a walk down to the local shopping mall. Find a shop called "Prestige **** Accessories", it will be next to the Apple store, or not. Go in and ask for a "super small jack off the crumb" self-pleasure, base model - you don't want the luxury model because that will be too expensive for you. Now, go to the chemist, or Priceline, whichever you prefer, and buy some KY jelly. You can actually get it at Woolworths, but it won't be any cheaper there, just so you know. Then walk all the way back home, like a complete ****, because you can't afford an Uber. When you get home, get a picture of Pauline Hanson, go to the bedroom, and do whatever ******** you like. We don't care what you do, and we don't want to know what you do, but you will have a "super small jack off the crumb" self-pleasure, base model" so you can ******* work it out from there. You dumb ****. Off you go. Walk.

  @rose_stabler How did it end up? Most people who go to the Apple Store are there to make a purchase. Whereas the people there to take care of a problem concerning their device are handled by the technical staff.

  "Roads are incorrectly priced" 10 people want 5 apples at the government apple store. So the govt sets a price cap of 5 cents and we have an apple shortage. Allowing the price to be determined by auction would relieve the shortage by allocatimg the apples to those who value them the most, but the basic problem of having only 5 apples remains.

  like sure I'm a nutjob or whatever, but "sir for $75 you can be taking it into the apple store, and we can be pleased to address your issue" just die lol. I don't care. waste my time, waste my life sure, but really? $75 just for me to bring it to you? How about $75,000 and you can go die.

  @yonann Lost me at "Perception of Customer Support" Have a problem, go to Apple store and they handle it. W/ Apple Care no issues. PC, who do I go to? Best buy, where they upsell/run-around try to sell x. Time is your most valuable asset! *Cough

  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.
