To this day the funniest thing about the entire Foxconn debacle (to me, anyway) is when the company settled on "Wisconsin has magic dirt" when asked why the buildings in Mount Pleasant did not have the required foundations to actually build LCDs. https://t.co/JLrgoiZwzw https://t.co/5vsdbeZJno — PolitiTweet.org

Foxconn has still not issued a statement or correction about The Verge's reports that its building around the state are empty. — PolitiTweet.org

There's nothing in the new contract between Wisconsin and Foxconn that would suggest that this plant will produce Fisker EVs, which was what Foxconn wanted people to think for a minute there. — PolitiTweet.org

Foxconn has fully caved to reality in Wisconsin and accepted a deal reflecting that there is no LCD factory. The original $2.85 billion subsidy package for 13,000 employees now scaled back to 1,454 employees doing, um, something with an $80m tax subsidy. https://t.co/oJeAHUHefx — PolitiTweet.org

@greengart Hm, who else does this for consumer TVs? — PolitiTweet.org

nilay patel @reckless

@greengart Yeah DV will generally lock to a manufacturer profile. But mucking with the input to compensate for the output is always tricky! — PolitiTweet.org

Notes on Apple's various display things: 1. Only the 12.9-inch iPad gets the miniLED XDR backlight system. 2. 24-inch iMac replaces 21.5-inch model, 27 remains unchanged (for now) 3. iPhone to calibrate Apple TV is neat, but it tweaks ATV output, not your actual TV, so many qs — PolitiTweet.org
