Problem is companies like to use global accounting schemes to hide/move profit.

If it was “5% of profit in the EU” then overnight Apple would suddenly make 0 profit in the EU due to “brand licensing fees” to Apple Cayman Islands Incorporated.

    I don’t know what the big fuss is about, the whole project has been a roaring success, and looks to continue delivering for another decade.

    …you didn’t think the purpose was to improve public transport did you? 🎩💰

    Just to say I would love for an iPad Pro to replace my MacBook, but without root file system access or a bash/zsh terminal it wouldn’t work.

    Does the new multitasking stuff and liquid glass work well on the base iPad that’s a couple of hundred bucks?

    Can’t justify having two super powerful four figure devices that have such overlap otherwise (for me).
