And the EU is stepping on Apple’s plans to break USB-C.

The news block this week is one of the wackiest I’ve ever cobbled together.

Vinyl has overtaken CD in music sales. EU warns Twitter over moderation. Samsung loses ANOTHER Qualcomm chip. US regulators are insuring the deposits held at Silicon Valley Bank.
And we HAVE to chat about all this SPACE ZOOM nonsense, and the Samsung Knights out here defending silly marketing.

What’s REALLY better for image quality, more resolution or a bigger sensor?
I feel the WOW-WORTHY-RESOLUTION claims from Samsung a little troubling. The best way to test this MEGAPICKLE claim? We gotta compare the Note 23 against a PHOTO CHAMP!
