I'm far from an early adopter but I have 2 of the 3 covered, and barely use my iPads for anything so I'd never need AI features on them. Glad we decided to switch from the base/mini iPhone 13s to the 15 Pro/Max last year. Still a GAI skeptic but it …

Is a telemarker just a really long sharpie? ;-)

My newest iPad is an Air 2. It would be 100% sufficient if only it had more than 16GB of storage. Otherwise, it works great for what I use an iPad for: content consumption, music stand software, and some light gaming. My wife has an iPad 8, which is…

Given how little iPadOS makes use of the power of the Air and Pro chips, this price drop may actually have been the best thing to come out of yesterday's event. Sleeper hit?

I still have some of the rainbow Apple stickers. They are among my favorite collectibles. I'll miss the stickers being included with Apple products; some of them get replaced at about the same rate as my cars, and I almost always put a sticker on my…

If it doesn't cost too much, I probably would buy it to replace the stereo HomePod mini pair we have as our living room sound system currently. OTOH, our old sound bar took up a lot of space that we've enjoyed having back since switching it out.

Seems pretty good, though it is fairly expensive. Hopefully time will bring more retina display options. Regarding the color, do you have a colorimeter you can use to calibrate the display? That might help bring it more in line with the built in MB…

Will we be able to get FSD that is, statistically, safer than the average human driver? Probably. Will it ever beat the best human drivers? No way. Humans think in a way that computers cannot replicate, no matter how fast they process information th…

"...just got even creepier thanks to AirTag." You mean thanks to tracker technology? They could be doing this with any of them, and probably are using other trackers, too. We just found out because AirTags are safer than some other trackers. Also,…

I agree with others here that parts pairing is an unreasonable solution to the problems of device theft, hacking, and repair with cheap parts. These are still problems that could be alleviated by other means. One option is that Apple could make pa…

They're welcome to take all the time they need to make it as good as the first season. This show is so good, if you haven't seen it yet give it a watch. The cinematography, sound and music, set design, writing and acting are all excellent!

I know a lot of people who will be very annoyed if blue goes away. I'd personally love to see green make a comeback, the 11 Pro in green is stunning!

Notably speedier unless you need to run Windows software that isn't compatible with Windows on ARM, in which case I guess the solution is switching to Windows or buying two laptops? I don't know for sure, but I'd bet that's a large portion of the Ma…

My experience has been great so far. I've had my 15 Pro approximately 5 months now and battery health is still at 100%. I always leave the 80% charge limit turned on, since that mirrors what I do with my MBPs. Battery was manufactured 7/2023 and fir…

Unions are fine, in theory, as long as no worker is forced to join one or abide by their decisions if they disagree. In reality, it's worked out that way exactly zero times. They are always an extra layer of bureaucracy and thuggery (but I repeat my…

Amazing. We've gone from the hidden port on the early Apple Watch that had such potential to having to buy a $300 USB2 dongle that adds no useful functionality whatsoever. Who at Apple is greenlighting these products? Have they somehow never heard o…

I understand how Apple could expect that people would remember their passcodes, given 99.9999999999999% of people already have a cell phone and they'll just use the passcode from that. Still, there should really be a way to reset it using another de…
