  • AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 get new beta firmware

    fred1fred1
    Maybe someone can explain to me why the AirPods updates are always sort of a random experience. You put your AirPods near your phone which is connected to the internet and wait. Sometimes it updates, sometimes not. At least that’s been my experience. 
    Would it be so difficult to have a place where you can select “update” or not, like with all the other Apple devices?

    In your (humble) opinion. Not all would agree with you.

    Don’t disagree with the above comments, however it was a free app, and if the app is free then who’s the product?

    I guarantee consumers won’t save any money.

    All that will happen is the power companies will raise their prices due to consumers using less power.

    It happens here in New Zealand where power companies increase prices in winter to rort the consumer claiming we’re using more power than they can generate. Except New Zealand can produce more power than it actually needs.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of markets. Don’t even get me started on how we pay international market rates for New Zealand beef and lamb internally.
    I’m sorry you’re so frustrated with living in New Zealand. I’ve heard it’s a very beautiful country.

    This is not about saving money; it’s about how much energy the devices use, just as with refrigerators, clothes washers, etc.

  • macOS Tahoe review -- glossy changes mask genuine improvements

    I hope they repeat all these articles about Tahoe when we can finally use it (not as a beta) in several months.
