Here you can mostly dyi the repair. So you are not stuck waiting for Apple's appointment and repair schedule which would be a week at the minimum that you are grounded. Plus easy upgradeability ..


I don't really want to DIY, I want quicker turnaround from Apple (which generally can pull off same day repairs if you ask).


It's possible to insert notes for each slide (atleast ms office ppt allow that). We do that for our training slides. The notes are detailed descriptions while the slides remain short bullet points.


Could the future users (or the users who were not part of current suite) start another class action ?


Sure. And they'd get what? Based on this outcome - nothing.

Just wondering how much does these machines cost and why we are we not making such machines at large scale ? Surely diamonds are in demad beyond jewellery. So making these machines at scale and reducing their cost could disrupt these "scammers"..


There was someone selling a HPHT machine for growing diamonds for $200k on AliExpress not that long ago. Not quite the same process as in the article, but the result is the same. So the answer is probably "a lot for an individual, but not that much in the grand scheme of things".

> Surely diamonds are in demand beyond jewellery.

Synthetic industrial diamonds are already common, and have been for a while. But they don’t have any purity standard and are very small, so they are much quicker to grow.

They are not that expensive but they are not going to disrupt the gemstone diamond business. However, synthetic moissanite is more interesting than industrial diamonds. It is similar to diamond from a structural point of view, but it is half silicon, half carbon instead of pure carbon. It is created using a similar process than diamond, and prices are currently about $10 for 1ct (give or take, clearer are more expensive). Some people prefer it because it is actually more sparkling than diamond. But even if it does not decrease demand for diamonds, it shows how low the prices can get.


> Surely diamonds are in dema[n]d beyond jewellery.

Yes, of course, that's what diamond-tipped drills and saws are all about.

Industrial diamonds are already cheap. The machines already exist at large scale. Diamonds are important industrial tools.

>> The levy would start at zero for the first return flight in 12 months and rise by €100 for each return trip, with surcharges for longer distances and first class travel.


Same here. When I first started learning design patterns during the starting of my career, this book made the concepts "click". Nowadays I rarely refer it but it was something that explained some of the patterns with better examples.


>> sure these finds must have dated in some way to verify the authenticity ....

What happens if the uncle used very old wood or cloth to make the toys. Will the dating technique be able to find the actual age ?


Dating is done with more than just material analysis. Evidence of tools used to make the toy, techniques for things like joins and stitching, etc. can all be indicative of methods that can give at least a lower bound. How applicable method differentiation is to this specific case obviously depends on a number of things.
