Doesn't use the native and fast hypervisor.

I've got my purchases refunded multiple times on the AppStore just by writing "the app doesn't do what the description says".

Google ads are really everywhere. Even on Hacker News!

Chromecast isn't Just an Apple TV only with AirPlay?

Siri also can turn your Phillips Hue lights. From your writ.

In fact, with iOS 10, you can arrive at home and Siri will automatically turn on your Philips Hue lights for you.

People have been saying that the Surface will be nice "in a year or two" for more than 2 years.

Whatever Intel and Microsoft do, Apple will always have a cleaner OS, a more efficient CPU and it's a more approachable product.

You're pretty wrong.

Free SSL.

Enough reasons for me.

Yeah, Tesla make sure that OTA is applied in every car.

Because writing control routines is not a big deal in assembly.

Specially in these CISC processors.

There's Amazon besides Microsoft.

Duopoly? No, more like Apple and Google are the only good companies out there.

And that didn't came from anti-competitive behaviors, but from HARD WORK.

Things like Google Maps and Apple Stores are cold hard work that are really meaningful for people's quality of life.

Amazon and others don't give any of this to the consumer, that's the reason nobody wants to go with their platforms.

Translating back to Portuguese could be "alum mau arranjo é melhor que um processo".

Which can be translated to "

This, and they also realized they had leftover RAM.

Because there's no reason to do that.

They need and are investing in other countries besides USA. Their mapping sucks completely in Europe.

So nobody would pay?

People that download games from the AppStore are kids that don't have a credit card, so subscriptions are not even an option.

I just thought I would just need to make a game and pay $99 a year.

Do you mean that's not enough?

(sarcasm)

> The problem is that games designed to "stick over many months & years and monetize the player" are generally garbage, as far as the quality of the actual game goes.

It's what the kids want to play.

I don't think the author's games are much better.

The AppStore has a category listing.

Of course category search is not going to work for everybody with 2 million entries.

If you want to search the games for genre, price, etc. go to toucharcade.com

So your problem has nothing to do with search, but it's simply a game that isn't available on the AppStore.

What did you expect?

The search to port the game for you?

> You need to make a game that competes on quality with the studios that spend $millions on their apps.

No, for example Crossy Road or Flappy Bird made some good money with a minimal team and minimal investment.

Not $millions like those studios, but also the creators didn't spend $millions in marketing and assets.

> Thats not a very promising proposition to anyone considering making a game.

Risks.

That's why most people find a job and not make games for the AppStore/Play Store in their room.

Well, try your luck at Android or Consoles or PC.

Never noticied the AppStore was some kind of heaven where money rained.

Seriously, so much entitlement. If you want to make money selling games, you have to spend a lot in advertising, how much does Clash of Clans and etc spend? It's the rules, it always has been, what's the surprise? Maybe it worked for a couple of months out of novelity, but it doesn't work any more.

Get real, people.

And yes, it's free games with IAP the rules. Because they are designed for kids without credit cards that at most buy iTunes gift cards. And yes, it's jewel and candy games, because that's what there is for girls, which are 50% of the population that the "mainstream gaming" has abandoned.

Must be a revolutionary new feature called "jailbreak bait"...

Why do people think that having programming skills is something that people of the future need? It's useless for most of people, and for many people who know how to program, is also useless for them too, as most if not all their needs are already fulfilled by someone else.

I think it's more important for the younger generation to learn about other things, some of them I do not know.

Things like agriculture, law, music theory, etc. are much more important than programming.

This type of fanboy comments are getting sick here, must be the summer.

This post is not about those subjects, and for the normal user, who uses his laptop unplugged, this is much more important than a browser being available on the Mac and Windows, or developer tools, etc.

I think Microsoft's works better, try also IBM's if you can.

Tough luck you.

Apple wasn't barred after all...

You remember from what?

From illiterate journos or YouTube comments?

Apple sued Samsung for cloning.

Samsung has been copying Apple to the millimeter, they have discovered a book with ways they should copy Apple, and they were spreading misinformation to the consumer like "Samsung makes the iPhone for Apple", or "it's like the iPhone, but bigger and better", and other BS.

Also, there is no problem in making a rectangular phone, but making the edges EXACTLY the same radius as Apple's? That ridiculous.

Samsung more than deserved what they got, from their advertising, where they attacked Apple users and offended them. For that reason, I will never buy a Samsung device, even if it's 100x better and 1/100 of the price of an Apple's (or everyone else) equivalent.

And their unilateral comparisons to Apple on their product announcements? Ahah, ridiculous!

Doesn't need to.

It's very different from the 6, and Apple has launched the iPod Touch in 2012, which is practically identical to the 2014 iPhone 6.

So you're citing crap bloggers that don't have a clue about what they are talking about, and don't present any evidence for what they write?

Good!

Yeah, tell that to the 10s of thousands of engineers that Microsoft just laid off.

While Apple is building offices in India.
