The Spirit of God is expressly speaking, to untangle his people from a monetary system that will shortly serve to control. Hear the warning!

This MacVoices Live! session wraps up as Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Jim Rea, and Warren Sklar continue their disagreement over the Apple Wallet app being able to be removed from the iPhone. That leads to a discussion of Apple Pay and other mobile payment platforms being available on competing platforms, and why that isn’t necessarily a good idea. The panel wraps up covering the announcement that Spotify is getting into audiobooks and how they are trying to differentiate the offering. (Part 3)

This time, the MacVoices Live! panel of Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Mark Fuccio, Jim Rea, and Warren Sklar shift gears with a report on the JAMF User Nation conference, their exclusive focus on the Apple market, and a notable customer who has abandoned Android and moved to JAMF-managed apple devices. Then, the first part of a heated debate about Apple allowing the Apple Wallet app to be removed from the iPhone in iOS 16. Is it Apple being targeted with unreasonable requirements, or are they appeasing their detractors before the requirement becomes reality? (Part 2)

The MacVoices Live! panel of Chuck Joiner, Jim Rea, David Ginsburg, Warren Sklar, Mark Fuccio, and Jeff Gamet take a look at the cancellation of Spotify’s Car Thing, and whether it is a symptom of what seems to be their “quick hit” mentality. The discussion then turns to Apple Pay, and a claim that they are overcharging the banks and credit card companies. (Part 1)

Bu gün "Tam Vaxtı"nda qonağımız ABB-nin Rəqəmsal Biznes Departamentinin direktoru Mehmet Ali Savaş bankın təqdim etdiyi ən son yeniliklər barədə məlumat verdi.

Topic 1: CISA Guidelines for MSP Clients

Like it or not, the US Government has defined Managed Services, and published guidelines for your clients and prospects to evaluate you! We expect a lot of heat - and maybe some light - to come out of this document.

Topic 2: Forcing options to Apple Pay and Google Pay

In the continuing saga of Apple (and others) forcing app developers to use their pay systems, the government of South Korea has decided that Apple and Google cannot force game makers and others to use only their payment gateways. This is, of course, the beginning of other nations jumping into fray.

We comment - including how this might affect potential lawsuits in the US.

Topic 3: Tesla building their own chip to train self-driving vehicles

What? Tesla joins the chip-making industry - because they can't buy the chips they need! Is this a sign of impending disruption for Intel, AMD, and others? Tesla has a unique demand, given the specific requirements of their autonomous vehicle strategy. And if they can't buy chips elsewhere, they're going to make their own - for now.
