Great, now do “For All Mankind”, which has surprisingly not been renewed yet. With the news that production on “Foundation” has been halted amidst budget issues, it’s starting to look like Apple is becoming more budget-conscious with its big sci-fi …

While the 3x optical zoom on the rear camera is correct, I don't believe that the iPhone 14 Pro has "ProRes 4K 60fps with external recording". I believe this was announced as a new feature on the 15 Pro, since the lightning port doesn't have enough …

For anybody with an iPhone 12 mini currently, I would strongly recommend picking up a 13 mini when you can - the battery life is much, much better. The 13 mini has better battery life than the regular iPhone 12, and my battery health is still at 90%…

I currently have the 13 mini, having owned the 12 mini before it. I'm in the Upgrade Program, and the 13 mini is the first iPhone I've kept for more than one year since the Upgrade Program started with the iPhone 6 in 2014. I'd already broken myself…

With any context at all, this is a rather pointless review (I get it - everybody has bills to pay). Until last year, the only options for desktop "Retina-class" displays were the sad collection of LG Ultrafines — usually described as "nice panel; sh…

According to a Reddit thread, the SMB issue seems to be connected to custom icons on the network shares. Once I mapped my shares directly to folders instead of the drives (which have hard-coded custom icons via SoftRAID), hunted down any custom icon…

The rumors have been pretty strong that, for whatever reason, the iMac will skip M2 and get refreshed with M3. I also suspect that the Mac Studio may skip M2, as this will make the upcoming Mac Pro a much easier sell for anyone who wants the fastest…

I owned the iPad mini 6 for about a year, and agree with just about everything in this piece, except for the criticism of the lack of FaceID. I ended up selling my mini to a friend when I finally came to the conclusion that, for a certain subset of …

I'm not sure most here have actually read Gassée's piece, honestly. At no point does he actually advocate turning the iPad into a Mac, and he seems generally to miss the simplicity of the iPad as originally envisioned. While I agree that iPadOS has…

The text is correct about single-core performance - not sure where those 19xx scores in the chart are coming from, but it’s not Geekbench.

Bad things can still happen with 11.0.1. After doing an initial setup and installing a few apps, I found out that some software I use works if you do a migration from an Intel machine, but not if you install it fresh on the M1 - the software to down…

Radeon VII works, but has issues: fans run at high speed during sleep and sometimes shutdown, depending on system type. It sounds like AMD isn't in a hurry to address the issue (at best), and it will require updated firmware to fix.

Well, finally got the "Dear John" e-mail yesterday. The new packages are ridiculous - how can I go from my current plan at $45 (or even the new $55) for 85+ channels, to the new plan at $50 for 40+ channels (though including HBO, which I'm only payi…

I had this happen with both a 2009 27" and a 2014 5k, fortunately had AppleCare on both. Happened in two completely environments, neither dirty.

I wish there were more smaller hiDPI displays available - after owning two 27" iMacs and a 21.5", I prefer the latter, especially with the availability of 4K resolution now. Unfortunately, the only 4k display at that size is the LG sold only by Appl…

It's a shame that Rodeo Games missed the business model on Deathwatch - either didn't charge enough up front, or didn't come up with a mechanic to encourage more IAP - and it led to the demise of the company. It's a tough line to walk, as a higher u…

The abject ignorance being exhibited here is galling, and obviously comes from people who have never actually used the app (and one who apparently used to, but made an incorrect assumption after the NBC purchase). As the story states, the most rece…
