   We knew Apple would be rather clever in *exactly* how they couch this,   
   given there is no possibility of fixing it without reducing performance.   
      
   Yesterday, Apple said they'd try to keep "long-term" performance   
   reasonable, which, since Apple's statements are no accident, clearly means   
   Apple is impacting short-term performance (there's no other way anyway).   
      
   Now, we find out that Apple is couching this as they're not going to reduce   
   the CPU's performance - which we expected - as they lower app performance.   
      
     "Apple did not provide any specific details about the bug   
      that it identified, but it said that it will not be reducing   
      the performance of the A17 Pro chip with its planned software update. "   
      
   The performance will decrease.   
   There's no other way.   
      
   But let's keep up to date on how Apple cleverly couches how they do that.   
      
   For example, Apple will differentiate between the CPU and the apps.   
   But even more clever, if Apple talks about "the bug", and "that one bug"   
   didn't cause them to reduce the CPU speeds - what about the other bugs?   
      
   How did Apple solve the myriad bugs - not just "the one bug" that caused   
   the defective iPhone 15 to overheat (which Apple only recently admitted)?   
      
   Never forget Apple is just about the most clever liar on this planet.   
   Just like Big Tobacco is.   
   --   
   The truth about Apple, just like the truth about Big Tobacco, is ugly.
