Hands on with Apple's new black and silver Magic Keyboard, Trackpad, and Mouse
Still no backlight. That means I'd have to keep two keyboards close: the Apple keyboard, and the one I can actually use in low light.Maybe they should sell the Touch ID button separately.

Tesla plans on launching its own in-car App Store, rumor claims
Unless their software security is AT LEAST as good as Apple's, which I seriously doubt, this is a REALLY bad idea. -
Lossless streaming option for Apple Music may launch within weeks
The iTunes Store opened in 2003.12Strangers said:Steve Jobs never wanted lossless. He and Neil Young had a meeting about that very thing before there ever was an iTunes Store let alone streaming. So as Neil’s Pono player and music store were about to start making money, Apple bought their mastering facility and shut it down. Because Steve was an asshole.I’ll stick with Qobuz.
Jobs died in 2011.Pomo launched in 2015.Pomo hardware was too expensive for mainstream consumption.Pomo's content partner, Omnifone, was bankrupt when Apple bought them in 2016.You obviously have a casual relationship with reality.

Lossless streaming option for Apple Music may launch within weeks
You may or may not know this, but there's already an "Apple Records", established in 1968 by a little known British band called The Beatles. When Apple Computers became a thing, Apple Records sued for trademark infringement, which was settled on the stipulation that Apple Computers never became associated with the music industry. Of course, in the 2000's the iPod changed all that, and Apple Record and Apple Computers had to have another "talk". They again agreed to terms that satisfied Apple Records.Beats said:I’ve been saying it for years. Apple needs a separate music event like they had for iPods back in the day.
They could announce all music related tech in one go. AirPods, Beats, Speakers, Apple Music, Radio, iTunes, Apps and music related features. Have music presenters like the launch of Apple Music then cap it off it with an artist performance.
I miss Bozoma “Boz” Saint John, Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre. It’s as if Apple had a bad falling out with the music industry in general.
P.S. Apple had an opportunity to make an “Apple Records” when Jimmy and Dre were hired. This was like hiring George Lucas and Steven Spielberg but not using them for film making.So that may have had something to do with why Apple didn't start a record label. And if they did, they absolutely could not call it "Apple Records". I'm a bit surprised they get away with "Apple Music".

Intel wants to manufacture Apple Silicon
I got this Tim...Intel, the short answer is "no."The long answer is, "Hellllllll No!"
One of the problems with using your tiny little expensive space heaters was you couldn't keep on schedule. Your OWN schedule. Why should we trust you to stay on our schedule with our more advanced and efficient chips, especially when they're competing against your tiny little obsolete space heaters?No thanks.
