Apple finally starts paying MacBook owners over faulty butterfly keyboards
|
The case was settled in 2022, so it's taken a while to get to this stage
|
Apple has finally begun paying some of its customers a share of the $50 million fund that resulted from a class-action lawsuit brought over faulty butterfly keyboards on MacBook laptops. A reporter at 9to5Mac received the maximum $395 payment just a couple of days ago, after a court issued a payment order for the case at the end of June. The issue affected butterfly keyboards on MacBooks, MacBook Airs, and MacBook Pros that were sold between 2015 and 2019. The keyboards were poorly designed and susceptible to failure, and led to numerous complaints about the keys sticking or failing entirely ... |

A heavy metal band has made a song about a OnePlus phone
|
OnePlus has found a novel way to promote its latest smartphone |
It’s not every day that a Finnish heavy metal monster band makes a song about a smartphone, but Lordi has done just that, Digital Trends reported.

The chorus, “Never settle, made of metal,” matches the Nord 4’s tagline, too. You can listen to Made of Metal on Apple Music and Spotify now, but check out the promo video, too, as it's one of the maddest phone/music-related videos you're ever likely to see ... |

It 's no surprise that the sequel was No. 1, but which movie was 2nd? |

Prison Architect 2 delayed indefinitely just weeks before launch |
Those who preordered the prison-building sim can get a refund
|
Prison Architect 2 was set to launch in September, but has now been delayed indefinitely, Kotaku reported. Publisher Paradox said in a statement that the team requires "more time to improve both the game's performance and its content" after internal reviews and beta test groups suggested that these elements needed attention. Seven years after the launch of Prison Architect, Paradox bought the franchise from original developers Introversion Software. Earlier this year, it announced a sequel with a September 3 release, but its release has now been delayed for the third time, with no new date announced ... |
