That is very much the house style of The Register, isn't it? Love it or hate it

Just because he's biased, doesn't mean he's wrong.

UK Reg commenters are sore b/c they have to deal with the prospects of mass-manufacture in the UK. Which will soon experience the sort of renaissance one would expect from trying to run industry on windmills & solar panels.

I find much reporting similarly painful. The style where they start with something like "John Smith was riding a bus to work [...]" and go on a whole narrative journey really annoys me too.

For this reason I prefer sources like the Associated Press or Reuters. TFA could be replaced with https://www.reuters.com/business/apple-adds-bosch-cirrus-log... for example.

You can also ask an AI to rewrite using "neutral, factual, inverted-pyramid" style.
