SJ201: iPhone 12 & gaming news, court shenanigans, quibi, girl power, & the secret word is Microsoft

The ByteDance/TikTok/WeChat maelstrom continues, cadets, but with some new folds in the (waste of) space/time continuum! There's also some speculation on iPhone 12, mini-LEDs, braided cables, a path forward for streaming game servces, and the future -- if there is one -- for Quibi. All this and Microsoft news and mischief galore, so break out your comfort food sticks, cadets ... in this topsy turvy universe, at least Apple is still the gold standard for customer service! https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/23/apple-leaker-confirms-october-13-iphone-12-event-pro-models-arriving-later https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/23/amazon-prime-day-starting-on-october-13 https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/apple-ranks-number-one-in-consumer-satisfaction-in-personal-computing https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/23/ipad-pro-will-be-apples-first-device-to-benefit-from-mini-led-technology-says-kuo https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/new-images-show-braided-usb-c-to-lightning-cable-potentially-for-iphone-12 https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/apple-releases-ios-1401-ipados-1401-with-bug-fixes-for-default-mail-and-browser-support Related: https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/new-macos-catalina-10157-update-fixes-27-inch-imac-graphical-corruption-issue https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/amazons-luna-cloud-gaming-platform-coming-to-iphone-ipad-mac https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/developers-can-now-build-and-run-swift-code-on-windows https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/microsoft-contributes-to-java-port-for-apple-silicon-macs https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/microsofts-refreshes-outlook-for-mac-with-new-design-improved-mail-view https://www.macrumors.com/2020/09/22/starzplay-apple-tv-channels/ https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/21/applecare-monthly-payment-option-extended-to-germany-uk https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/new-macos-catalina-10157-update-fixes-27-inch-imac-graphical-corruption-issue https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/girl-flags-massive-ios-ad-scam-campaign-targeting-kids https://www.npr.org/2020/09/21/915308028/microsoft-to-buy-bethesda-in-7-5-billion-deal-acquiring-fallout-the-elder-scroll https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/microsoft-teases-office-for-mac-update-to-be-available-without-subscription https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/21/bytedance-insists-it-will-maintain-majority-control-of-tiktok-in-the-us https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/20/judge-stops-executive-order-banning-wechat-from-app-store https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/doj-could-launch-omnibus-google-antitrust-lawsuit-as-soon-as-sept-28 https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/21/video-service-quibi-exploring-strategic-options-including-possible-sale https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/21/21449640/google-pixelbook-discontinue-chromebook-laptop https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/1password-partners-with-privacycom-on-secure-virtual-credit-card-numbers https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/bing-mobile-app-database-left-open-to-hackers-millions-of-user-data-sets-compromised https://petapixel.com/2020/09/23/microsoft-surface-hub-s2-is-a-22000-85-inch-touchscreen-that-runs-photoshop/ https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/23/sonnet-unveils-new-pcie-card-for-mac-pro-that-supports-two-u2-ssds https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/24/mercury-pro-lto-by-owc-offers-future-proof-thunderbolt-3-lto-8-archiving https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/corsairs-new-tbt100-thunderbolt-3-dock-is-perfect-for-dual-screen-macbook-setups https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/22/pennsylvania-launches-covid-alert-pa-app-based-on-apple-google-tech https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/09/23/uk-debuts-nhs-covid-19-app-built-with-apple-google-api https://mashable.com/article/ios-14-apps-designed-microsoft-paint/
