The best Apple Vision Pro productivity apps at launch

It’s a spatial computing device. We need spatial computing apps (3D). We need Iron Man’s UI for whatever the heck he does.New fangled 3D design app? Video game environments that surround you?Something to take advantage of the huge surround canvas (or 180 degrees of it). Apple said not to use the terms AR or VR to its developers, but why am I wearing goggles if I can’t get up and walk around something?
Without a new killer app, it will be essentially useless. No one wants to relearn how to do the same thing on a different tool. They want a new way to do something new.Home designer/ Interior decorator apps? Just throwing ideas out. I know nothing. -

New 16-inch MacBook Pro review: More power & more convenience for more money
I don't quite agree with the title of the article (for more money) and with someone earlier (who suggested that the price should drop with their own CPU/GPU).
The baseline 16 inch MacBook only went up $100 or approximately 4% - that is about what inflation has been the past year. Also, the fully loaded model is again very comparable with that of the previous 16 inch model. So where in the actual text of the article is it shown that the more power and more convenience come for more money?
And why would we expect the price to drop from the previous model? These now have much better displays (mini-LED with promotion). Furthermore, with the built-in acceleration for common video and photo operations on M1Max and M1Pro it sounds like they now provide MacPro levels of speed for much less money. No one should have expected the first versions of these new M1 16 inch MacBook Pros to have dropped in cost. -
'Fortnite' not coming back to iOS or Mac any time soon

Apple could play nice and accept Epic again in the App Store, assuming they don't repeat any shenanigans—and stop bitching in social media. Or Apple could nuke their ass by banning all Epic developer accounts (e.g. Unreal Engine) which is allowed to do now, if I've read the verdict correctly.
This "so so" approach only gives air to Epic's fiery comments about being mistreated, at the same time that it don't do enough to really hurt them. -
