  Bought an #iPhone17Pro from the official Apple Store, Borivali on 29 June using an HDFC credit card EMI. Two weeks later, the EMI still hasn’t been processed. HDFC says they never received the instructions. Apple Store says it’s HDFC’s issue. 1/2

  Anyone in Gaborone who specialises in Apple software issues? My Apple Watch got stuck in a boot loop after a software update & the Apple Store at The Fields Mall doesn’t seem to know how to fix it. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

  A guy walked into an Apple Store to buy a MacBook Air. He walked out having spent $2,100 on a $999 laptop. He thought he made smart choices the whole time. His brother in law, who worked Apple retail for 9 years, watched the receipt and just shook his head. In the parking lot he said: "You didn't buy a laptop today. You bought seven upsells wrapped around a laptop. The storage tier. The AppleCare pitch. The trade in number. The 'while you're here' accessories. None of it is random. Every rep is trained to hit those seven moments in that order." He broke down 9 tricks Apple retail uses and the counter move for each one. Two months later the brother bought his own MacBook using the playbook. Same store. Same model. $760 less. Here's everything he said.

  A student in the United States received a $3,000 university grant and spent the entire amount on five Mac Minis, not because he wanted a better study setup, and not because he was trying to impress anyone in his dorm, but because he was tired of waking up every morning and explaining his life to an AI that had forgotten everything by the next session. He did not use the money for textbooks, private tutoring, paid courses, or a new laptop like the university probably expected. He went to an Apple Store, bought five small machines, carried them back to his dorm room, numbered them from 1 to 5 with a black marker, stacked them on a cheap metal shelf beside his desk, connected a power meter to the wall, made instant noodles, and went to sleep while the machines began turning his room into something that looked less like student housing and more like a private AI lab built on scholarship money. His neighbors thought he was mining crypto, which made sense from the outside, because all they saw was a shelf full of computers running through the night, cables hanging behind the desk, a small fan pointed at the stack, and a student who suddenly cared too much about wattage. What they did not understand was that he was not trying to mine coins; he was trying to build a system that remembered his classes, his assignments, his codebase, his mistakes, his goals, and the product he was quietly building while everyone else was still treating AI like a smarter search bar. The problem he wanted to solve was simple but annoying enough to change everything. Every time he opened a new AI chat, he had to explain who he was, what he was studying, what project he was building, what the professor wanted, which parts of the codebase were broken, what he had already tried, what had failed, what he had learned the day before, and why the answer needed to fit his specific situation instead of sounding like generic advice from a model with no memory. He realized that the most valuable thing was not another chatbot, but a system that could keep context long enough to become useful. Each Mac Mini became responsible for a different part of his life. One machine processed his lecture notes and turned them into explanations he could actually understand. Another reviewed his assignments before submission and checked whether his arguments, code, and formatting matched the requirements. A third acted like a private tutor that questioned him until he could explain the material back clearly. A fourth wrote, tested, and refactored code for the product he was building outside class. The fifth coordinated the whole system, kept the rules updated, stored the context, and decided which task needed to run next while he was sleeping. There was no development team behind it, no manager assigning tickets, no daily standup, no productivity consultant, and no university department guiding the experiment. There was only a rules file, five machines on a dorm shelf, and a student who understood that local AI became much more valuable once it stopped being a conversation and started behaving like infrastructure. The university had given him money for education, but he used it to build an education system that did not forget him. That was the part most people missed when they saw the setup. The point was not only that the machines were powerful enough to run useful models locally; the point was that they belonged to him, which meant his lecture notes, unfinished code, business ideas, exam prep, personal mistakes, drafts, and prompts stayed in his room instead of being uploaded into somebody else’s cloud dashboard under somebody else’s terms of service. During the day, he still went to class like everyone else, listened to lectures, submitted assignments, and looked like a normal student trying to get through the semester. At night, the system summarized readings, found gaps in his understanding, generated practice questions, cleaned up code, tested features, wrote documentation, and moved his side project forward without needing him to sit there and manually push every step. When he woke up, he was not starting from zero like everyone else opening a blank chat window. He was starting from wherever the machines had stopped. At first, people in the dorm laughed at the shelf with the numbered Mac Minis because it looked excessive, strange, and slightly ridiculous for a student room. Then they started asking him to summarize lectures they had missed. After that, they asked whether it could help them prepare for exams, review essays, explain technical concepts, debug projects, and remember the context of their classes without forcing them to rewrite the same background information every time they needed help. That was when the private study system became a product. He packaged smaller versions of the setup for other students, not as a replacement university and not as another generic AI wrapper, but as a memory layer for people who were tired of using tools that forgot them every morning. It became private study agents, class note summarizers, exam preparation bots, coding copilots, and project assistants that remembered the user’s material, progress, weaknesses, and deadlines. The grant was $3,000, the machines cost less to run than most monthly subscriptions, and the first paying users came from the same dorm that had originally joked he was mining crypto. What started as a way to survive his own semester turned into a product other students were willing to pay for, because it solved the problem they had all accepted as normal. Now the system makes around $45,000 a month, and the strangest part is that none of it began as a startup pitch. It began as a student using university money to stop repeating himself to a machine. The university thought it was funding his education. What it actually funded was the infrastructure he used to rebuild it.

  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.

  @maye23musk32 @Elonmarsmusk12 My phone is not working well, I have made a list to follow-it is all Apple controlled things. Hopefully tomorrow. The Genius Bar at the Apple store was no help. I can’t transfer it to a new phone until I get it solved or I will simply have a new phone that only half works.

  Went to @Apple store in Arndale to diagnose/fix my screen that’s been going dark & they told me the screen & battery were done for & it’ll cost like 600 quid to fix; advised me to get a new one instead 😩. In the meantime I’ll just keep connecting it to my TV w/ HDMI 😩😭😭😭.
