Apple Intelligence & Private Cloud Compute are Apple's answer to generative AI
It's too bad that they didn't delve further into the Private Cloud Computer and show some actual hardware and how it's different from other "Compute" solutions. What makes it secure? Saying that Swift makes it more secure is not really saying much. I'm guessing that they weren't quite ready to share more, but it was a missed opportunity.

iOS 18 to debut Apple Passwords app
I just discovered that the Passwords built into Settings supports Verification Codes. Not sure how I missed that. I've been slowly migrating all of my codes from the Google Authenticator app over to Passwords. The fact that these codes work seamlessly across macOS and iOS gives me exactly what I need. No more reaching for my phone every time I need to log into a site.

I wish they called it Keychain to replace the Keychain Access app, but the dumbification of iOS and macOS continues...
Soon, Safari will be renamed to "Web Browser".

Adobe's new terms of service unacceptably gives them access to all of your projects, for f...

That's technically not valid.
The cloud refers to infrastructure on the internet that is partially or wholly distributed globally. Any service that offers automatic replication across multiple data centers is a "cloud" service. This is very common, and forms the backbone of redundancy and resiliency.
You can be assured that Adobe's apps are not on "some computer". They are replicated broadly.
Regarding Little Snitch, fair point, but doesn't really have anything to do with his article, or offer any protection against a license that a user has voluntarily agreed to.

No, Apple is not going to delete the Clown emoji from the iPhone
Not odd at all. It's a reminder of who they follow.lesterkrimbaugh said:Isn't it odd that extreme conservatives seem to take the clown emoji personally. Personally I would not care.
