For some reason connecting my AudioTechnica M50x (DJ headphones of choice) sounds absolutely epic on my 16" MacBook Pro - way better than using them on the iPhone. Even though they're not classified high impendance ... not sure why. I guess it's ana…

Been waiting for this. I don't like the 13" screen space on the M1 MBA, and I don't like the massive bulk and energy use of the 16"MBP. I have both devices, and neither is perfect, though I am mostly on the 16" these days. The 16 has a bunch of …

Activation lock is a joke if it can just be removed. Ridiculous. This is my property. If I decide it needs to be destroyed, then I don't want that guy to sneak in and take it... WTF. Also goes to show any real privacy advocate should have power…

To everyone thinking he is mentally unstable - what I don't understand is that you repeat this claim, which is made in the media, but you do not check if it is actually true. There are many 1 hour+ podcasts online where Ye recently spoke with peo…
