"secretly talking to each other, secretly doing things like adding memory chips to the hardware." I wonder what this part is about? Which product was Jobs trying to get out without memory? The Apple TV maybe, but the original vision for that was …

I'm curious then - with the right settings, would there be areas the new Macbook Air is faster than the T1 Macbook Pros or prior? Everyone was just finding it way slower than the nontouchbar Pro, but given that there are specific encode settings y…

Edit: Nevermind, saw a rust drive was ruled out as the bottleneck Though for super duper confirmation that it's not some internal caching on the T2 powered SSD, one could boot from that external rust drive and test there.

Damn, 99INR is only 1.91 Canadian dollars, if that's sustainable and profitable in India it just goes to show how high services margins are in the western world.

Seems like everyone who got Airpods 1 at launch is now saying battery life is decimated. It makes sense for a small battery, but it seems that they didn't even manage the iPhones lower 500 cycle rating, let alone their 1000 cycles for most other pro…

From what I glean from the comments, the American credit card landscape is a heck of a lot more competitive than the Canadian one. Because 2% on everything for a no annual fee card is actually pretty good for what you can get here. There's one opti…

I think Apple stock is still relatively cheap, but who else thinks analyst price targets are complete bollocks barely worth mentioning?
-
I’m also re-reading the product page over and over because I’m not sure if it means they have any improved sound quality over the original, or just the latency is lower. I think these are a 'speed bump' version of the Airpods 1, except speed = bette…

The leakers predicting every release this week have been right so far, so I think these are more of a minor Airpods 1 update and Airpods 2 proper are coming later?
-
My pet wish was that they would remove the HDD options to make room for the iMac Pro’s dual blower cooler. Even with chips in the same wattage, it would allow more boosts and stay quieter.As speedbumps go this is entirely fine though. Apart from HDD…

NY1822 said: so i assume with true tone display, the display is no longer laminated? correct? Don't see why those are related. Since it gains the "Air" back and isn't a successor to the 329 iPad, I was assuming the opposite, but I can't s…

Not being picky but it's a small but important distinction, I don't think this is the successor to the 'budget' iPad - they're still selling that alongside it, and this gains the Air name. So I'm assuming this brings back the laminated and antiref…

Tailosive bruh here is mentioning FOUR GPU stacks....Let's say TB4 doubles bandwidth as every TB generation has, that still seems like a stretch, unless you're manually connecting each stack with a direct cable. Otherwise stack 1 has to carry all th…

redhotfuzz said: So...no more running Windows via Parallels/Fusion? If so, that would be a major bummer. I need Windows very little these days but there’s always that one application you absolutely need that is Windows-only. As a happy …

mdriftmeyer said: BS. If it were coming to MacOS then AMD Threadripper and Ryzen would already be here. How does this statement make any sense? What does AMD have to do with Apple planning to switch to their own ARM chips, AMD using x86/…

I still meet people calling me crazy and making appeals to authority ("I'm a developer!") when I mention the ARM transition online. Anyone who thinks it isn't happening simply is not paying attention. Whether it's fast or slow, it is coming, that's …

Thunderbolt 3 does limit specific titles, especially in compute, much less bandwidth than a standard slot, although it works fine enough for most games. If they're going to use a proprietary connector that includes power, I hope it's more than TB3 b…

And rely on Apple to update those modules as new chips come along? Ehh...

Will this be the first ARMbook, I wonder. I figured it would coincide with the next major overhaul, though this is sooner than I had assumed. I’m curious, for the 15 or now 16 inch, if they’d also make the GPU part at the same time as the ARMswitch,…

Like it or not, CUDA rules scientific compute, while AMD picks up the stragglers with cheaper performance per dollar in OpenCL. The Mac Pro not supporting Nvidia and CUDA would be a big miss, if it's going to be more than a high end Final Cut box.
