CNET reports Apple's the unscheduled untested iOS 12.1 release may work around the iPhone design flaws

Published this afternoon...

CNET reports Apple's iOS 12.1 will fix iPhone XS, XS Max charging issue.
<https://www.cnet.com/news/apples-ios-12-1-will-fix-iphone-xs-max-charging-issue/>

The main problem is that the iOS update iOS 12.1 won't arrive on all
iPhones and iPads until much later this fall.

"...you'll have to wait until iOS 12.1 hits the market,
and Apple hasn't yet said when that will be."

Since *Apple never tests even their official releases in the real world*
"Whenever Apple releases new software and new devices,
there are often bugs that don't show up yet"

It's not recommended for a mere mortal to risk the many bugs that are in
_all_ the Apple beta releases (e.g., the proven broadcom security bugs,
proven Linux connectivity bugs, proven secret throttling tricks, proven
missing functionality, proven broken functionality, proven almost always
severe negative performance issues, etc.).

Since there is arguably _nothign_ of any value in iOS 12 anyway, users will
have to update to the iOS 12.1 just so that their phones will reliably
charge.

What's kind of funny is _that_ will be the *first item of real value* in
the entire iOS 12.x release suite!

I have already refuted this BS claim. Books app is revamped in a positive
way. So you are full of shit.

And my iphone charges fine. And why are you munging your email address
unless you know your offensive trolling behavior will get you put into
posters’ bozo bins? That’s the behavior of a self-aware asshole. You
provide nothing that someone able to browse Google News would miss.

The troll is nonresponsive to refutation. Noted.

1. You Apple Apologists _hate_ facts (so you hate me).
2. You Apple Apologists think an app is an operating system.

Those are facts that you proved yourself.

Every time you Apple Apologists post, Hemidactylus, you prove to possess
the mind of a child.

If it takes you five seconds to figure out my posts, then you're an idiot.

All my posts contain *facts* for one thing.
And all my posts contain _adult_ logic, for another.

I'm nothing like you childish silly Apple Apologists.

You Apple Apologists _hate_ me.
You know why?

Because you hate facts.

*HINT: A silly stupid stinking app is NOT an operating system.*

What's so strange about you Apple Apologists, Himidactylus, is how you
prove that you can't comprehend even the _simplest_ of adult constructs.

*Renaming an app, is NOT a meaningful operating system update.*
It's just not.

It's just a silly stupid stinking little app for Christs' sake.

That you _think_ an app is an operating system, just proves, yet again,
that you Apple Apologists possess the minds of children.

*HINT: A silly stupid stinking app is NOT an operating system.*

A fact easily inferred from your output is that you are a monomanic
dingbat. Refute that.

So why do you take measures to circumvent killfilters? I think the answer
follows from the easily inferred fact that you are a monomanic dingbat.

When you act like an adult, Hemidactylus, I treat you as an adult.
When you act like a child, Hemidactylus, I treat you as a child.

I don't have to prove you act like a child, Hemidactylus.
You know why?

Hey I haven’t posted here much over the past month. Someone posted stats
that support that fact. Can’t I have just a little fun poking at him?

But yeah maybe time for an author/content filter to silence his bullhorn.
