So it's Kinja Comment Stars for restaurants. I'm sure that will be fine.

They’ve kind of screwed this up. Now there’s 3 pencils, none of which has ‘all the features’ AND works on ‘all the iPads’. If I buy an iPad Gen 10, which has USB-C, the 2nd gen doesn’t work with it. But the 1 and 3 do, except 1 gets pressure sensitivity, and the 3 charges via USB-C. The 2nd gen has all the features,…

It’s actually identical to the pen I got free with my ASUS laptop last year that I am charging as we speak. The entire end slides out to reveal the USB-C port

It’s actually pretty identical to the pen I got free with my ASUS that I am charging as we speak. The entire end slides out to reveal the USB-C port rather than just a piece of it.

By removing pressure sensitivity, Apple turned the their Pencil into a Ballpoint Pen.

Seems like re-branding of the FREE HP pen my son got in his laptop...

Yeah, I’m not sure who the consumer is for an $80 stylus vs. the $130 one that functions better. $80 is still a lot, and anyone who’d use a pen for something more substantial is willing to spend more anyway.

And lacks pressure sensitivity. So they made a pencil that’s more expensive to manufacture (sliding parts and a mechanical port), but with fewer features and a lower price. I literally don’t even know why they’re selling this. They’re actually losing here.

They also bought GM’s credit card business from Capital One for $2.3 billion a couple of years back. 

Oh, pleeze, GS has lost its way, and is using its Apple partnership as an excuse. No way is that partnership affecting their bottom line that much.

Not innovative? How about all the security features? I love the ability to rotate the security number to foil fraud. Or the fact you can have “throwaway” card numbers. I also love the ability to force authorization on every purchase (ask to confirm before charging card). No other card lets me do that shit. You just an…

so there weren’t millions and millions of people who rushed in to sign for an Apple Card?

Super surprising....

Loving those Marvels posters. Goose is going to sell out fast. 

I’m fairly sure this whole website is ran by AI bots and they just put their names on it.

Either that or they’re dogshit at their jobs. 

The Protostar crew “save the day at the very last moment” in the synopsis for “Supernova, Part II” — the first season finale of Star Trek: Prodigy.

Oklahoma, not Indiana. But thank you for the recap!

Looks awesome, I’m definitely in, I’ll sign up for my free Apple TV month when the series is almost over so I can binge it. 

GOJIRA!

I’m generally a sucker for this kind of family-friendly fantasy movie (and much as the trailers are hiding it this is also a musical) - I’ll be first to defend the honor of Santa Claus: The Movie anytime - but between this and the surprisingly similar-feeling Wish I think it’s time to retire this subgenre for a while,…
