  Oh good the other way worked and the article is up for anyone else who is having trouble with posting if this gets posted the issue is probably you have a update check with your Google/apple store and if you do update but then run incognito and load web

  I feel sorry for @Macys & the @Apple store — they’re going to loot the stores, who you ask, Mistah Mayor? Why, your low IQ Arabs, Dominicans & “Those People” — they’re going to burn the City down & loot everything in sight

  @AppleSupport It’s been more than a week since I visited Apple Store to get my iPhone 17 PM fixed. Which has issue with its charging port. I was told to drop the device at genius bar for the repair. Since then I am continuously taking update from the Apple team and crazy part is.. 1/2

  The uncomfortable truth: Apple's business model rewards storage anxiety. The more often customers see "Storage Almost Full," the more likely they are to: 1. Pay for iCloud subscriptions 2. Upgrade to higher-storage models 3. Buy a new iPhone entirely Every default setting on a new iPhone trends in the direction of consuming more storage, not less. The 7 fixes above take 10 minutes total. They cost nothing. They will recover an average of 40-60 GB on most iPhones over 12 months old. The Apple Store employee said one more thing before he left: "We see this every day. Most people don't even check Settings → General → iPhone Storage before they walk in. They just assume the phone is too small for them. It almost never is." RT this so more iPhone users stop spending $1,000 on a storage problem that could be solved with 7 toggles.

  Remove my cellphone from the case because I was using the portable charger and it ******* fell down. Still not the festival since I had to go to the Apple Store. Super wonderful ppl and I needed a phone asap since I’m alone. Now I have a 17 PM, an expense I didn’t think of

  @ramcharger22 My wife and were having security issues that might’ve involved her phone. Went to the Apple Store & they checked it out, no problem. Also told us that there is no real difference between a 13 - 17. If it’s working fine no need to change.

  9 out of 10 people replace their iPhone because the battery dies fast. My brother almost did too. Then I opened Settings and changed 7 things in under 10 minutes. His battery went from dying at lunch to lasting all day. Zero cost. Zero Apple Store visit. Here's the exact fix:

  An AFP TV crew filmed an 8 year old Chinese boy named Zhou Zhiheng for a feature on Asia's youngest coders. Round green glasses. Red shirt. He sat in front of a MacBook Air at a glass desk in a Shenzhen co-working space with iPhone XR posters behind him. The narrator said he started by programming games. The subtitle said he had 60,000 followers on a coding tutorial channel. The camera pushed in on his fingers on the keyboard. While the West runs panels on screen time for children, China sits an 8 year old in front of an unregistered code editor and films it for the international press. He was supposed to be the cute face of Asian tech literacy. He just left the file tree open. Pause at 1:34. Ignore the C++ on the screen. Ignore the if statement that the AFP narrator was reading aloud. Look at the left sidebar of the editor. The folder is named aspirin. The open file is jizhe.cpp. The folder tree below it: 1-7, 1-7b, 10-1, 10-1.2, 10-2, 10-4, 10-6, 10-8, 11-2. ColdMath. $94,318 profit. 5,612 entries. Joined September 2025. Bio: Edge Compounds. Jizhe is the mandarin word for journalist. The file the AFP crew was filming was named after them. The boy had the open scanf reading a score variable. He had not written it that morning. He had named the file the day the AFP request came in. The numbered folders were not coding lesson chapters. The numbering matched the Chinese journalism beat codes the press accreditation office issues to foreign correspondents. 1-7 is the technology beat. 10-1 is consumer electronics. 10-2 is mobile devices. 11-2 is venture capital. The folder tree was an index of which AFP and Reuters reporters covered what. The boy was not the developer. The boy was the camera trap. The agent on the MacBook Air was scraping which journalists requested filming permits from which Shenzhen co-working spaces three days before the segments aired. Every requested permit was a position on the company being filmed. The agent traded the gap between filming and broadcast. The crew filmed for forty minutes. The agent placed eleven positions during the shoot. Every position was on a company whose office the AFP team had visited that week. Comments turned into a detective board. Someone slowed the AFP clip to 0.25x. Someone else translated jizhe out of the filename. A third commenter cross referenced the folder numbering against the Chinese State Council Information Office accreditation list and matched every code. Six months ago a 14 year old in Shenzhen pushed an AI agent to GitHub. Judges said no real world application. 3,100 forks later. The boy's father had been one of them. He had installed the fork on his son's MacBook the week the AFP request landed in the family's WeChat. The 60,000 follower coding channel was not a coding channel. It was a feed of which co-working spaces hosted which crews. The followers were operators running the same fork from different cities. The iPhone XR posters behind him were not Apple Store decor. The shoot was inside a media briefing room rented by foreign correspondents to film exactly this kind of segment. The agent knew the room. The room was on the list. The AFP segment is at 2.1 million views. The freeze frame of the folder tree hit 4.6 million on the repost. The wallet is still compounding. The agent is still reading press accreditation requests. The unregistered editor is still open. The jizhe.cpp file is still on the screen. He was filmed as proof a child could code. The child was the lens. The agent did the filming.

  @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.

  @Koutchboom There aren’t any actual Disney Stores left anymore. But there’s a concept there that could be expanded upon. The Apple Store isn’t a terrible idea actually, but it would have to be executed the right way to bring in numbers. It would have to be a local bastion of the Disney exp.

  So, going back to the question l asked the technician at the Apple Store: "Are these default settings really protecting the user, or are they silently wearing down the device?" He didn't have an answer. But every iPhone he tested that day had the same 2 switches TURNED ON. Silently burning in the owner's pocket.

  @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 don't know. I'm sure it's pretty, but this looks like an Apple Store on wheels. Where are the physical controls? I'll take real engineering that solves real problems. My two cents.

  @TimSweeneyEpic You have no ******* room to speak on this. You had fortnite on the Apple store and coerced your players into paying you directly so you can avoid giving Apple a cut. Then had a whole animation rendered and ready before hand when you got in trouble with Apple. Shut. The. ****. Up
