  • Apple's Battersea Power Station offices in London opening soon

    Why does Apple need "offices" in London?

    That's idiotic.  Nobody needs to be working in an "office" at this point, it should be 100% remote.
    Same reason people need homes and not just bedrooms: to be together with other people, to support each other in person, to feel the energy in the room. And also, to give workers the quality workspace they deserve, with light, ergonomic chairs and desks, space, tools, sound proof meeting rooms. Not everyone can afford a separate office at their home; and no one should have to.

  • AirPods Pro 2 review roundup: Better sound and ANC for the same price

    I generally like the design of the Beats Fit Pro better than the AirPods Pro (except for the case). Hopefully the AirPods Pro 2 technology will migrate to Beats like it did for the first generation. And hopefully they update the Beats Fit Pro Case then also.

  • Apple Watch Ultra review roundup: Best yet, with tradeoffs

    I’m pretty excited about this option. I won’t let myself buy it until I try one on—I have small wrists for someone of my size.  I don’t care so much how it looks, but I want it to feel
    like it fits… dress shirt cuffs are already a problem!
    Shouldn’t be. Remember that a watch should never be worn under a shirt cuff. It is worn between the cuff and you hand.

  • Apple's features graveyard: Once heavily marketed, now gone

    This is not a long list, and some of it is a bit daft. Not supporting headphone jack and Intel chips? Why not include: not supporting CD-ROM, 30-pin connector, VGA Port? I miss Front Row the most, and Automator.

  • Rumored Apple Watch Pro could cost $900

    This is pricy for an Apple Watch, but I do welcome how Apple is starting to differentiate again properly between the Pro models and the consumer models. The Pro models - laptops, desk tops, screens phones - really are now for content creators and other people that really need/want the top spec for whatever specific use cases they need it for; while the consumer products are powerful enough to satisfy even the most discerning consumers.
    This compared to only five years ago where the consumer models meant compromising.
