"Boudin's Bakery" is this the one where their Sourdough Starter, over 150 years old, is so valuable that it is taken from store to store in a Armored Van?

I am certain AMD like most responsible vendors (Seagate) also worked with Apple to correct the issue. Nvidia's issue was that it told all of the laptop vendors to just deal with it. It's why they are hated by other vendors and AMD

The issue is that Zoom continues to keep the mic open after you quit the App. They blamed it on a bug and said it was fixed in a new version but it's still happening! This is why doing this in the browser would be better or even adding

Objective-See has a utility to do this called OverSight. It's a firewall for your webcams and mics. BUT do not mention this in the Zoom forums as it will be taken down.

MacOS (Certified Unix OS) is bundled with multiple OpenSource projects since it's initial OS X release, just like many other *nix OSes. It's so easy to install your own version and override it that this is not an issue. Simple res

Nothing. NVidia still has it's ARM license and as long as they are kept out of the x86 chip business (thanks to Intel and AMD) they are happy to renew the license with ARM.

Yes but Apple's license for ARM v7 allows it to do anything it wants with the tech regardless of who owns ARM. Only 5 to 7 companies have this license and it's very expensive.

But it's not and it has been documented. Apple paid for the 3nm process years before TSMC had the fab ready. I'll bet that the moment a new process is available that Apple will invest in it as well.

hmm, Nintendo, Sony, Sega and MS all have a monopoly on their stores. In fact, Target has a monopoly to their retail stores. You can't just sell your crap at Target because you want to. Also to probably lose 50% to the retailers.

It's not Apple's fault that Global Foundry and Intel didn't invest in the 3nm. If you read up on Apple and Intel you would know that Apple (Jobs) was ready to use their CPUs for the iPhone but they won't produce anything

Nothing to negotiation. Apple invested (pre-ordered) before 3nm was built.

Yeah but if 1 of your customers offers to prepaid for 10 years of service at the same price you wouldn't turn that away. Allowing you to maintain your other customers. Apple's pre-order of 3nm will get them priority as they ordere

TSMC may not have needed it but Apple did invest (pre-order) and they will continue to do so. There is not exclusivity but pre-purchased capacity and similar video games and kickstarters. They don't always work out for Apple (the Sapph

They aren't buying up all of the infrastructure. Samsung and Intel offer the same services. It's not a monopoly for a company to pre-order ahead of time. It's like Kickstarter but at a grander level.

They did for the glass manufacturer who built the large panels for the Apple Flagship Store in NYC. They also invested in Corning for building the glass for the iPhone (Tech that Corning shelved for decades).

Not in the x86 arena. Every time Apple gets involved with a CPU developers (Motorola, IBM, Intel) their needs splits from the developers desires. This time they decided to go on their own (well after years of doing this for the iPhone). Not
