  • iPad mini 7 two-month review: Now I get it

    I have been using Mini’s since the beginning. As a psychologist I use them to write things while I’m working with a patient, and the mini never gets in the way. Bigger iPads, I tried them, are to big in my use case. I don’t play games, but reading a book or a paper is also nice to do. And of course, this iPad is the light weight option when traveling. 
    Happy with my 7.

  • The dream of an all-glass iPhone will have to wait a bit longer

    In ten years time it will yet be another phone from Apple, iPhone 33. It will look similar to iPhone 16 and all the phones preceding it, make phone calls, take pictures and run apps and oh yes the keyboard will be bloody awful. 

    Nothing radically new on the horizon. Still milking the Steve Jobs vision. 

    And it twenty years time, you guessed it, iPhone 55. Doing pretty much the same. 
    What is your problem?

  • Apple Watch tracks more health metrics than you realize

    “ If you purchased on your Apple Watch prior to the cutoff in late 2023, the blood oxygen was fully functional and it included the blood oxygen app. The ones sold after, Apple cut this off via software.”

    You forgot to specify that this feature is disabled in the US only. In Canada and everywhere else, Massimo’s patents don’t apply and we have access to this feature. 
    AI seems to have forgotten as of late that countries exist outside the US. Otherwise a nice article. 


    Perhaps off-topic, but yes: AI is very US oriented. Why not add (in brackets if you must) metric figures to the obscure Fahrenheit, inch, pounds and what not? Doesn’t AI WANT to be read outside the VS?

    I’m 70 years old. I have thought of buying an Apple Watch for years now. This article is revealing. Perhaps it’s getting time.

    I am tired of the capitulation to T**** (the loser). He’s a criminal. That half of America voted for a criminal makes no difference3 in his criminal state.

    When a corporation bows to a politician, it is called fascism, or state-capitalism.
    when a political leader determines the winner of an economic sector, it’s fascism.


    He was voted in because dems had useless candidates, again. He won by default.

    Harris had four months to mount a campaign, raise money and introduce herself and her excellent running mate to the American people.  She had a huge uphill battle against a sea of lies told so often that people believed them and the media became exhausted debunking them.  
    This. It wasn't a sea of lies, it was a tsunami of lies. He won because too many Dems stayed home. Too many Undecideds were selfish.

    Main stream media, the news those not addicted to the FAUX News entertainment show watch, was silent on Trump's constant bald face lies. Fact checking was left to online sources that most older people never see. All they wanted to talk about was Biden's performance at the debate. But not one word about Trump's increasingly bizarre performance and memory lapses. 

    And too many stupid people blindly believed his and RNC's lies targeting their hate and discontent without any basis in truth. They weren't open-minded enough to see his actual character or lack of it. They actually believe life will be better under his rule. His cabinet recommendations don't bother them at all. "Soybeans? That was a one off. Couldn't possibly happen again." Sure.

    A huge cloud is headed our way. We had a chance to prepare and ignored it. There is no silver lining for anyone but the 1%, and xenophobes who don't care what it costs, as long has he gets "them" the cause of all their troubles.

    Democracy is being stabbed to death and as with Kitty Genovese too many are just ignoring it. And other "patriots" are cheering it on. Trump is escaping justice at every turn and he just gets bolder. His cult members apparently love a good grift.
    I read somewhere the following quote that helps me through the day: America will choose the right thing after first trying everything else. I guess this is the trying everything else fase…
