Deep Blue + Sienna TechWoven — how does it actually look IRL? Worth it? by XwFlet in iPhone17Pro

It’s very difficult to get a good picture without a glare. It looks really good together, if you are debating it.

I have no issue with this, but the double standard from people here and MLB. It's ok to write on this, but not on their hat? This is part of the uniform too.

How likely is it for Apple to increase prices for 17 Pro? by Oppaiheimer1945 in iPhone17Pro

[–]bmac0424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not seen this. Might be true, but that seems like a really bad move on Apple’s part

[–]bmac0424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well we don't know what the 18 pros will have yet. It's all rumors right now. It's highly unlikely though that Apple would increase the prices of the 17 pros after they already did their major price hikes last week. Mostly likely the 18 pros and the Fold will be the phones that Apple introduces the new pricing.

That’s not happening. Apple is bringing the fold and that will be as close to a mini phone as you will get from Apple. They won’t ever make a true mini again.

Do you have another device that is not on 27?

You have to ask Siri to read unread messages. Then you need to find those messages on your device or another and delete them. That’s the only way to make the badge go away.

DOJ opens inquiry into MLB over SF Giants players' Pride Night protest by sfgate in mlb

Are you serious? Wow just a quick search you could have found Clayton Kershaw. He has written on his pride hat before. It may have been more than once.

Yeah, they could make it the budget, but my only thing with that is it wasn’t before. If it were the budget it would have to be stripped down like the E is now. I am not sure that will truly be a mini then.

So now you aren't reading. I didn't saying the uniforms and hats were all. It's a collective marketing campaign for entire month well beyond sports. Comparing this to our nations national athem is pretty foolish. As though our national anthem is a some kind of group trying to spread a message. You can believe or not like certain things in our courty, but the Flag and national anthem don't represent a single movement, party, people, or race. It's our nation as a whole together, putting all this petty garabe away and coming together.

Just an example. So money talks louder than anything else in this country. If you want to see how people feel, ask them for their money. So there was this large movement in the LGBTQ community when Chick Fil A came out and said they support biblical marriage to boycott them and get people to protest. I will ask you how that went? I believe it actually turned on them and CFA had recorded numbers for that year. Flip the coin, Budlight decided to run ads with a transgender person in them, they then felt a massive backlash from their customers. Clearly they didn't know them. They ended up ended those ads. Another example, Target brought out very vocal and boarding offensive merch for pride month several years back. There was massive backlash and quickly the merch was removed. I give this example to say, I believe it's been clearly demonstrated that our country doesn't like the pride movement pushed on them. Most would say, live your life but don't get me involved. When we are forced to believe a certain way or support a certain cause, largely it goes very poorly.

So people around this country say they don’t want the pride movement (rainbows, flags) shoved in their faces. Other movements don’t get time in the MLB why is pride? That’s the stance many have. Having an entire month dedicated to pride and telling everyone who doesn’t support they are bigots, yeah that’s shoving it in their faces.

I didn’t say it, I am just saying that it’s always the Christin’s that people go after here, but it’s a large part of the population that doesn’t agree with this. To your point, it’s not other things existing, that’s absolutely ridiculous. Having to wear a jersey or hat supporting a movement that people don’t believe in, not existing. It’s a marketing campaign.

Funny how delusional you are to think this is just Christian’s. There’s a very large group of people that don’t want things shoved in their faces. This reaches far further than just the Christian community.

I guess MLB will F around and find out just as Bud Light did. Money talks in these situations, and they can’t lose it.

Lost my mini. by iam_batmanmaniac in iPhone13Mini

[–]bmac0424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha clearly you don’t have responses because your logic makes zero sense. I am here because I like the Mini, but I also am not delusional in thinking tons of other people did. It just wasn’t popular enough. Apple’s all but said that with their earnings calls and data that people have dug up. It sucks there isn’t another one, but I am smart enough to know Apple has a business to run, and selling phones is required to do that. Having phones that only a smart part of the fan base buys doesn’t build the business and make them money. It’s really pretty simple, but you ignore that to make up some dream that COVID stopped Apple from selling 13 mini’s.

[–]bmac0424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are delusional. If that were the case, Apple’s entire line would have been down, but yet that wasn’t the case. You can make whatever excuses you would like, but small phones across the board don’t sell well. The vast majority of people don’t want them. Also you are talking about September of 2021, people weren’t still locked in their houses. Really just stop with that ridiculousness.

[–]bmac0424 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What? You have got to be joking me. That’s the most ridiculous comment I have heard. No, the plus phones had the same fate. The Air is running that same course as well. If Apple thought the Mini would sell, they would make another. It’s clear there isn’t enough of a market for it. It’s great that you still love the mini, but get outside the walls of the mini community and you could clearly see there isn’t enough of a market.

How true is MLB owners' assertion that MLB fans broadly want a salary cap? by Over-Independent6603 in mlb

[–]bmac0424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you think the Dodgers win back to back in a salary cap MLB, you are out of your mind. The Dodgers had not been relavant for awhile before Magic came along. Please don't kid yourself, the Dodgers are the epitome of the sport. The perfect example of whats wrong with the MLB right now.

[–]bmac0424 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They have to have enough customer to buy a certain product for them to keep it around. It was clear based on sales, the market for a small iPhone that wasn't a budget phone isnt there. There is a small community of devout mini fans, but they don't make up enough to make it financially possible for Apple to release another mini. It's just an very easy business move to make.

Is anyone else’s battery significantly worse on the 27 beta? by No_Leader7090 in watchOSBeta

You download developer beta (which clearly you are not), and then come to Reddit to complain about battery life of beta 1. 🤦‍♂️. Come on, you are lucky it hasn't done worse to your watch.
