It’s a valid point, and it’s really silly that something like a M2-based iPad can’t be used to write software it can run.
There’s no excuse given that it’s fast, you can add a keyboard and even a monitor to it, but you just… can’t use it that way because Apple said no.
I know it’s to make Apple sell more hardware, and maintain control of the ecosystem to extract their 30% rent, but I mean, you could still do that and have a full IDE on the platform.
OMG openttd. See, I could see firing pu my Jornada JUST to play this. Muahahaha.
That’s so cool that openttd goes back to the Jornada 🙂
Android phones/tablets can run editors and compilers, though, as can other non-Android Linux phones/tablets. It’s really just iOS that’s locked down to the point of near-uselessness.
