Is anyone here getting the Apple credit card?
Also , I love my Sony over ears and was thinking of getting the in-ears but I think I like the W1 chip or whatever and rather get the powerbeats pro whenever they go on sale.
Did you get an email for the soft launch or did the ability to apply just appear in your wallet after an update?

Coding what? I'm developing Webapps and it's JetBrains IDEs. PHPstorm Webstorm etc.So what's better for coding on Mac OS? Sublime or ATOM or VS Code?

My reply from the other thread:
Nah she's high maintenance when it comes to stuff like this. I don't use it in the same way at all so it antagonizes her that the go-to Apple/tech person has no idea WTF.
Some others will probably chime in with better answers but I'll just say that I prefer the way VSC handles extensions and it generally feels more accessible / easier to make it into what I want. I think most would have said Sublime was better a while back but VSC has done a lot to catch up. Both are well supported so you're golden regardless of which you go for.So what's better for coding on Mac OS? Sublime or ATOM or VS Code?
That stuff is neat and all but to me not worth the greater cash back (or points) offered by other cards. I'm the type that loves to maximize rewards though and all the cash back categories I can easily beat or at least match with my current set of cards.My reply from the other thread:
I'm intrigued about this not just as an Apple user but because of how it works with the stuff I already have. Mainly how it tracks and displays all the info about what I'm buying. And that gradient thing is really cool too. Where each vendor gets a different color and the gradient changes as you purchase more stuff.
MKBHD explains it here:
So basically, yeah I want it. I kinda wanna replace the card I have with it. I'll be doing research first of course but I think this might be the next logical step.
It's automated for the banks and cards that support it. Some don't allow Mint access to anything though.Does Mint do all of the tracking/charting automatically or do you need to manually input each purchase?

But don't you need to give your bank login credentials on them?
Yeah but it's secure. Mint is made by intuit. It's a major company.But don't you need to give your bank login credentials on them?

I want to buy a cheap MacBook. My first one.
all I want is for it to not run as slow as a turd,and run the newest OS this fall, and Sidecar for my iPad Pro.
lole all I really want is the MacBook experience, but I don't care if it's 10 years old. I just want to learn how to use the OS. Think of it as a device for me to learn Mac on and than throw to my kids and get my own for me and the wife.
where do I start to even google.
Current Sidecar compatibility:
iMac 27″ (Late 2015) or newer
MacBook Pro (2016) or newer
mac Mini (2018)
Mac Pro (2019)
MacBook Air (2018) or newer
MacBook (Early 2016) or newer
iMac Pro (2017) or newer

MacBook (Early 2016) or newer
iMac Pro (2017) or newer
Is there some hardware in these machines that makes sidecar easier to run that is no in the next oldest machine in each category?

macOS Catalina - Apple
i see it lists what systems will work on at the bottom, that's a start
I'd suggest not getting the MacBook, as that falls into "feeling slow as a turd" if you do anything beyond basic web browsing on it.
If you want a good machine, I'd recommend the current MacBook Airs. They're $999 with a student discount or regularly on price for that much, they've got more reliable keyboards that have an extended warranty program for piece of mind, and it's a light machine that's still decently speedy and should last you much longer than the MacBooks. You could always also get the previous-gun model if you want since the differences are negligible and it'll be a little cheaper.
welcome back to greatnessJust got an iPhone XR, I had a 6S+ back in the day, and two dead android phones later (one was completely my fault tho), I'm back.
I love it so far, everything is so snappy!
yea camera sucks ass though. I miss the Google camera.Just got an iPhone XR, I had a 6S+ back in the day, and two dead android phones later (one was completely my fault tho), I'm back.

I had a Moto Z2 and honestly the camera wasnt that good IMO
'sucks ass' is hyperbole if not outright bullshit. In any case, Glad you're enjoying it NarohDethan , it's a sizeable jump from the 6S too.
Thanks :) I'm happy with the camera so far! A massive upgrade from my Z2, especially the selfie camera.'sucks ass' is hyperbole if not outright bullshit. In any case, Glad you're enjoying it NarohDethan , it's a sizeable jump from the 6S too.
I'd honestly wait at least until the September event if you want to buy new AirPods. We had multiple reports of a new refresh coming this year iirc (since 2nd Gen AirPods were delayed for months due to the airpower fiasco). Now that the wireless market has some competitors, I don't think it's far fetched to think they'd want to stay ahead of the curve.My AirPods (first gen) batteries are getting shorter and shorter and I'm torn between getting the 2nd gen or getting the Powerbeats pro. Anyone have either and can chime in if the upgrade is worth it?
As someone that moved from a Pixel 3 to an iPhone XR, the XR can't touch the Pixel. It doesn't "suck ass", but the Pixel blows it away.
At least iPhone is still the market leader in video recording.

I have been using a pair of OG AirPods since launch month. I used them every day, and loved them. I bought a pair of powerbeats this summer due to the same battery fatigue. IMO the PowerBeats Pro are better in every way except case size. The bigger case doesn't bother me because I either put it in my bag or I leave it at home, I never try to bring the big beats case in my pocket. It is easy enough to put turn off the PowerBeats with the activity button, or take them off and put them in your pocket. The PowerBeats Pro sound better, they have a much longer battery, they have volume buttons and an activity button on each ear, they have different size ear tips to choose from. They come in black (and other colors), and they have a hook around your ear. The only question is if they feel comfortable in your ear, they are slightly bigger so it is not 100% guaranteed that you will like how they feel in your ear. If you don't like how they feel then you may not want to buy them. Otherwise to me it was a no brainer if your willing to spend that kind of money on earphones.
Do the power beats pro have the same features of AirPods like removing one to pause music, hey Siri, etc?
