After my first impressions, lengthy update, decision point and one month update, this week is when I have to officially lose the ‘skeptic’ prefix to my Apple Watch diary series and relabel myself as a fully-fledged convert. The trigger for this realization was a fairly small one, but one which clearly demonstrated to me that – little by little – the Apple Watch is transforming itself into a gadget I eventually won’t want to be without … The trigger was the arrival of Apple Pay in the UK – something I’d been impatiently waiting for ever since the U....

Typed emoticons can still elevate any chat, especially the timeless and hilarious ¯_(ツ)_/¯ emoticon. Here’s how you can type out this shrug emoji on Mac, Windows, iPhone, and Android devices. A Quick Guide On How to Type the Shrug Emoji ¯_(ツ)_/¯: How to Type the Shrug Emoji ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Quickly and Easily On first glance, the shrug emoticon seems like a tricky and complex emoticon to write out. It’s one of the more intricate emoticons to type, and most people often resort to copying and pasting the emoticon from other websites....

I’m a self-confessed smartwatch skeptic. The first one I ever tried, the original Pebble, struck me as an extremely ugly solution in search of a problem. The Apple Watch, when it was finally announced, looked like a rather attractive (if too thick) solution in search of a problem. Which raises the question: why was I up at the crack of 8 am (time zones can be useful things on occasion …) to order one?...

Apple shares yesterday closed below $100 for the first time in 15 months, the WSJ noting that the value of the company has dropped by $100B in a little over a month, losing 7% this week alone. The slide is being attributed to two factors: one (semi-)factual, one speculative … The Cupertino company’s 4.2% drop on the day was greater than the overall market’s slide and the 3% slump in the Nasdaq Composite, which closed down 10% from its May peak....

While a stock split doesn’t directly change the value of a company, it can encourage more investment in a stock. Historically, AAPL stock splits have seen the share price rise an average of 10% in the following 12 months, says an analyst who did the sums for ten large brands over a 60-year period … Business Insider saw the analysis by eToro. AAPL’s biggest rise following a stock split was in 2014, when the share price rose 36....

So, the other week, it shocked me when I heard on the Reply All podcast that a hacker had successfully phished someone using 2-step Gmail verification. This was in the episode entitled What Kind of Idiot Gets Phished? It’s a great episode, so I won’t spoil it for you by telling who the “idiot” was, but I will tell you some of the tricks they used. 1. Look alike domain names The hacker had permission from the show’s producers to try to hack the staff....

A Star Is Born has emerged as 2019’s big Oscar favorite, with the bookies currently having it on odds for Best Picture rivaled only by Roma. Bradley Cooper’s directorial debut, the fourth official version of the story after films in 1937, 1954 and 1976, was the toast of the festival circuit in Fall 2018, and quickly emerged as a favorite to win big at the Oscars. This was emboldened when supposed competition from previous Oscar winners, such as Damien Chazelle’s First Man, Barry Jenkins’ If Beale Street Could Talk and Steve McQueen’s Widows, fell by the wayside care of poor box office and unclear critical praise....

Canaccord Genuity estimated back in July that Apple was taking home 92% of the profits in the entire smartphone industry, and now says the figure climbed even higher last quarter, hitting 94%. Samsung was the only other company to make a profit, says the report, with 11% – the somewhat odd math explained by the fact that everyone else is losing money. Investors Business Daily quotes analyst Michael Walkley predicting continued strong performance by Apple....
