Yes. I too enjoy seeing big tech companies face stricter regulations, and seeing the fines they receive increase. #Apple getting a record $2 billion fine for anti-competitive business practices is a good start.

To put that in perspective, Apple reported $96.99 Billion in profit over 2023.

That's an average of $265.72 Million in profit every day.

Apple will have earned enough in 7.3 days to pay off this fine.

Considering the years of leverage they've held over app developers and competing services, I think we can see they make a lot more money on these business practices than they're losing in fines.

Even record breaking fines.

@BalooUriza only one question remains: voices by original voice actors or the Hollywood stars from the movie? (I'd rather have the former)

@SomeGadgetGuy what even IS a photo nowadays with all the AI editing tools available?

@SomeGadgetGuy I love it! Looks light as a feather!

@SomeGadgetGuy here waiting (not) patiently for the video

American friends, you have limited smartphone brand options in your country, give a chance to lesser known companies (at least lesser known up there)!!

@repeatro VC rules! So excited to go back to it on #GTAVI

@slanderoid it used to be Audio mainly but nowadays I'm seeing it more and more in Accessibility! (Sometimes even on both menus, since Accessibility may summarise all options related to accessibility in different sections)

@SomeGadgetGuy can't wait for Samsung to re-invent variable aperture lenses or for Apple to invent it!

Xiaomi 14 Ultra will get f/1.6~f/4.0 Stepless Variable Aperture 👀 but who cares if it's not Samapple right??

@SomeGadgetGuy as is the case, Chinese / less renowned brands bring on the innovation and then it's up to traditional brands to "perfect" those features or make them mainstream. It's so unfair

One of my favorite shots from the #OnePlus12 so far while testing the phone. A little ant caught a brief ray of sun during a rainy week here in Southern California 😊
The OP12 telephoto is surprisingly good at close up shots 👍

@SomeGadgetGuy scalpers will scalp

@SomeGadgetGuy touche... At least dry it 😅

@SomeGadgetGuy different issue: must be cultural but down here we never boil water in the microwave. We use the stove for that lol (or at most an electric kettle)

Pertaining to the poll: wash your cup man 🤣

@SomeGadgetGuy @GeoffBySea aaah me too...
Xiaomi 9T Pro (zoomed 2x lens, cropped) and LG G6 (with external 12x lens). G6 probs the best manual camera from what I've owned

@GeoffBySea @SomeGadgetGuy the reasoning I've seen the most is "they take better pictures". Then again... (Check the watermark lol. For comparison, same night, me with a Moto G71)

@SomeGadgetGuy @GeoffBySea forget that, most people's days center around emails and PDFs lol. I mostly work from home on my PC, but when I got an on-site gig I just carried around a Galaxy Tab A8 with a BT keyboard to keep doing my remote work
