Wow. "Jony recently gave me one of the prototypes of the device for the first time to take home," Altman says. "I've been able to live with it and I think it's the coolest piece of technology that the world will have ever seen." Way to keep expect…

I really dislike Adobe as a company and wouldn't want to pay those prices for those products. Having said that, the tone of this article is odd. I think AI would have been better served with 2 pieces: one reporting of the changing options and price…

Watch that video. It's a delightful use of 18 minutes. At the end there is an interview with the Aston Martin design chief. Before watching the video I hadn't realized that this Car Play Ultra is essentially an SDK for car makers to design their ow…

I do agree that "impossible" should be avoiding in favor of a more accurate term like "economically infeasible." Obviously it's not "impossible" to make iPhones in the US. They might be as scarce and expensive as a Hermes handbag, but not impossibl…

Xed said: SiTime said: It’s $3500?!?!? I’m on Apple news sites all the time and even I didn’t know it is $3500. For some reason I thought it was $2500 or so. So I would have been way off as well. Although my bid of $2500 would have be…

The original "fat" Mac was US$3,195 (equivalent to $9,670 in 2024)

The image of the tweet doesn't make any sense unless you click thru and see that the dude is referring to the top of the image. (Not sure how this is "punishment," but that's a different issue.)

The headline of this article is 100% false. "New report contradicts Tim Cook's remarks about iPhone panic buying." From the article: "More iPhone owners than usual traded in their older devices in the spring of 2025" and "Apple Chief Executive Offi…

Also, it would have been a distraction if Tim Cook were in it. It just makes more sense that it be the Netflix guy. I could see them using Tim in some role next season, but it wasn't the right choice for that episode.

Is the color just very off in the cover photo for this piece, or is that not the original iMac. The blue in that pic is not bondi blue. I still have my original iMac. Any suggestions what I should do with it? I don't want to throw it away, but I ha…

AppleInsider said: The finger does attach to a hand -- it just doesn't have to touch the Magic Mouse Are we sure? Clearly Apple is hinting at a future of detachable digits.

inkling said: Apple's Eddy Cue is guessing that the iPhone will eventually be replaced by AI Did Eddie Cue miss his medications that day? The only way AI will replace phones, including iPhones, is if we all quit talking to one another and spe…

Including the cost of a 3D printer into the total cost is insane. That’s like saying my groceries cost for the week cost $35,000 because I had to buy a car to get to the store. The cost of this (silly) this is a teeny bit less than the cost of a Mac…

Thankfully, the markets move faster than the courts. Facebook's relevance in social media peaked years ago. Likewise with Twitter/X. There is still room for massive disruption and new players. I'm not excusing companies that use illegal means to m…

I don't understand this product. Without Command/Ctrl/Windows/alt/option keys it's essentially useless. Also having the trackball buttons above the trackball? Who would actually (try to) use this keyboard?
