"Distribution isn't free." - Horace Dediu And when OpenAI, Google, etc start charging for their AI services through Apple devices, regular Apple App store fees (15%) will apply.

"When California passed a 2018 law that banned employers from considering prior pay to set compensation, Apple asked applicants about pay expectations instead, the suit says. The plaintiffs' lawyers argue that the practice of asking about pay expectations perpetuates gender discrimination because women have historically been paid less than men."
Hard to believe anyone would sign onto this suit and hard to believe these attorneys have nothing better to do.

Hard to believe anyone would sign onto this suit and hard to believe these attorneys have nothing better to do. You really doubt it? What's the downside, for individuals? We have a pretty open justice system, but it seems more and more the US is sue happy, and there is no downside as long as they get someone to take their case. And often they'll do it for free, on the condition that they get mega bucks if there is a payout. I don't like the system. But it would be limiting if you had to pay a fee or deposit to start a lawsuit too. So what is the right answer? But with just about everything there is no clear black or white choice. Pay is one of those areas too. Over the years I have really seen the value, from Apple's side, of having many hires be contractors first, where the company has a little more flexibility. And once you've worked for a while, ideally it is a lot easier to come up with a suitable salary.

This is news I have been waiting for! Apple will let you send text messages via satellites in space later this yearNo pricing data yet. My wife just picked up a garmin to do this while backpacking, since the REI sale had it for $100 off, though she has no trips planned for this year. She didn't remember about Apple's SOS feature, and we hadn't yet heard anything on non-emergency satellite messages. Big parts of the tahoe rim trail have no cell coverage, especially in desolation wilderness. And there were big sections in-bounds at ski resorts I tried this year that didn't have coverage, like at Kirkwood. I'm looking forward to this. I'm sure there will be a cost, at least beyond just a few messages. But a lot of people here will want it, along with a lot of visitors.

The company's stock is trading higher due to Apple's launch of iOS 18, which includes satellite messaging capabilities for iPhone 14 and later models. Then GSAT (Globalstar) stock, who have supposedly been working with Apple, lingers. My inquisitive mind is looking for information.
