It’s more cost effective to integrate the controller.
Being worse for customers is just a happy accident.

It’s replaceable, it’s not upgradable.
Apple doesn’t use standard NVMe M.2 drives. The controller is built into the SoC rather than being on the storage device itself.
Hotmail ran on FreeBSD when Microsoft acquired the company in 1997. They started the transition a few years later and it was entirely hosted on Windows by 2005.
They absolutely will. Those minerals are valuable.
They did the same with Star Trek: Enterprise. It finally picked up momentum in the fourth season when Manny Coto took over as show runner, then they killed it.
Having borrowed a quest 3 last week I’ve almost pulled trigger on buying one.
The only thing holding me back is… it’s Meta.
Also they never sold it in many countries.
I bought a Tesla years ago before Elon completely removed the mask.
No way I’d buy one now, but I also don’t want to sell it early and lose a tonne of money.
The Tesla board should intervene and remove him, but they won’t because he’s stacked it with yes men like his brother.
Notifications etc I can understand if you don’t know how to use tech properly.
What I don’t understand is how every older person seems to have loud speakerphone conversations in public. They had landlines most of their lives so why do this?
That desktop app really is super hot garbage.
I’ll hold out for the Pro Max Ultra
Linus is really, really shitty at responding to criticism. I don’t think it’s malice, it just didn’t occur to them.
He should just be upfront and say “you know what? We should have done better here”. That’s it.
Cowards
We have a similar mix, though I was referring to the underlying virtualisation providing their cloud hosting.
Azure runs on windows. Hosts run a modified version of Hyper-V.
At least, they did last I checked.
What we wanted: Alpha Centauri 2
What we got: Civilisation in a $2 shop Halloween costume.
The solution is to just buy a cheap Brother mono laser printer.
Transformers
MacGyver
Star Trek TNG
They’re a business. Reducing their costs (while charging you a premium) is absolutely what they do.
Apple’s whole deal for decades now has been building a vertical supply chain. Using their own SSD controller is one less component they have to pay others for.
They just don’t give a shit about downsides: aftermarket repairers or user upgradeability.
