After years of research, an Apple smart ring may be imminent

Apple will allow third-parties in the EU access to the iPhone NFC chip
I feel “meh” about the whole thing. All my cards are already in Wallet. Why would I care to use another service to do something the phone already does? I do like other apps being able to use the NFC app to read and write data. But I don’t care about other banks or whatever being able to access the NFC chip. -

On my phone, I choose which system to use and that is the default.
Now I hope that non-payment options become available like NFC for transport validation. -

macOS Sonoma can be installed on 83 unsupported Macs with this tool
I'm still surprised that my 2017 15" MBP lost support this year. It's a powerful system, so it should be able to run the new OS update. The difference between Ventura and Sonoma is so small, it shouldn't be an issue to update. Unless Apple really DOES do the whole "planned obsolescence" thing. I'm curious why the article mentions potential issues with the T1 security chip....
