The Touch Bar on the MacBook Pro is well implemented, but serves no useful purpose
In keyboard settings you can customize the control strip and remove the Siri button. Once in that setting move the cursor down past the screen and you'll be able to select things in the strip and drag them up and out of the strip.Sorin Astro said:The touch bar is worse than useless - it took away the real functionality and feedback of physical keys. I hit that stupid Siri button by accident all the time, and what I wouldn't give for a proper escape key! The whole keyboard on the 2016 and newer Macbooks was a huge step backward from the feel and function of the previous generation. After living with it for 8 months, I still hate typing on my 15" 2016 Macbook Pro compared to my 2011 MacBook Air. The feedback was so much better on the older keyboard.

At least nine Macs with M2 Apple Silicon chips are reportedly in development
At the very least, offer the M2 chip as an upgrade. I am definitely not buying an M1 mini when an M2 chip exists.crowley said:
Even if it the Mac mini wasn't completely within Apple's pattern of upgrades, there's a whole world of excuses. Have you read the news recently?simply258 said:There is absolutely no excuse for not having an updated chip in Mac Mini already.

EU may require Apple to give competitors access to Apple Pay tech
Apple is just making excuses so it can get a cut from contactless transactions, and is using the same excuse for restricting apps to their own App Store. Android devices have been doing contactless for a long time and allows bank app to have direct access and we haven’t heard of any breaches or hacks. There are layers of security and encryptions, Apple can make an API to ensure these things. I don’t understand people defending Apple, these same people won’t accept these restrictions on a Mac.

iPhone 12 boasts latent reverse wireless charging feature, FCC filing suggests
Apple will not enable it. If they haven’t announced it as “coming soon” then they won’t throw a surprise and add it later.

How to use Google Translate as the iPhone's default translation app
Did you by any chance delete the Apple Translate app?tjones99ca said:For the other commenters, the reason Google Translate does not appear, is that it was only updated this morning, so update all apps and try again. For me, something very strange is happening here. I've just updated my iPhone SE3 to 18.5, and updated all my apps (including Google Translate), but when I go to the default apps as stated above, I see Google Translate selected as the default translation app. When I click on it to see options, the normal default Apple Translate app does not appear, only Google Translate, so of course it's selected as the default. Huh? Is there a toggle in Apple Translate to enable it? I'm in Canada, so is that the problem?
