Another great example of the virtually transparent, underappreciated, and super useful machine learning-powered functionality that's built into Apple devices.

To be fair to this gentleman, when you go to delete a conversation on an iPhone, it doesn't seem to delete for connected Macs, but if you delete from a Mac, it does offer to delete from all other devices. This inconsistency does seem to be a valid b…

I trust that they will come up with a solution to the menu bar for the Mac Virtual Display. If you're working on an app placed to the right, but need to go all the way to the top-left to access the File or Edit menus, that would be super annoying. …

It's too bad that they didn't delve further into the Private Cloud Computer and show some actual hardware and how it's different from other "Compute" solutions. What makes it secure? Saying that Swift makes it more secure is not really saying much.…

mattinoz said: Boy I hope they are wrong about the name "Apple Intelligence" seems such an obvious misstep. "Swift Intelligence" maybe understandable as an umbrella to all the open source work Apple sponsors in AI and as a common interface at…

I just discovered that the Passwords built into Settings supports Verification Codes. Not sure how I missed that. I've been slowly migrating all of my codes from the Google Authenticator app over to Passwords. The fact that these codes work seamless…

I wish they called it Keychain to replace the Keychain Access app, but the dumbification of iOS and macOS continues... Soon, Safari will be renamed to "Web Browser".

This bizarre fixation on thin bezels is... bizarre. Don't these people realize that the bezel serves a functional purpose? Two, actually. 1. More accurate colour reproduction by creating a border where light can't "leak" into the image being viewe…

What if it was proven that Apple was innocent in this case? Would these protesters apologize and try to make amends? Do they have that level of integrity? How is 70% poverty "caused by" Apple? Making a profit is not a crime. Why not ask Apple to b…

How does destroying private property accomplish anything? It just serves to foster anger against such protesters. Their cause may be legitimate, but actions like this are despicable. I firmly believe that Apple is doing anything it can to address …

We live a a world of contradictions where the Right isn't right. No wonder none of the major world problems are not getting solved.

She wasn't even looking at the tablet. Why was it there? That's my question. I was really hoping Sammy had something creative and sensible here.
