Trump trumpets trade deal with China that's still terrible for Apple
The de minimus thing is still in the works, dead, or going to come back, depending on who you listen to, what time of day it is, and what the phase of the moon is.h2p said:I don’t see the break for Chinese importers into the US in offing. I’m seeing Chinese goods cost up to the 55% tariff. BUT will the “under $700 package from China” exemption still exist?

Passthrough audio is finally on the way to Apple TV, iPhone, and more
Apple says it isn't the same, but we'll see. The previous call still exists.Locutus said:We may be getting ahead of ourselves here. This is likely just including other platforms in the macOS passthrough API included in macOS last fall. The API offers limited passthrough support for DD and DD+. In macOS, it's a per-app preference. It's not a guarantee. When set, macOS will passthrough audio as long as you don't have any other audio features in use that requires macOS to decode the audio. Once you do, macOS falls back to decoding rather than passing through. macOS doesn't support TrueHD or DTS with this change. I don't imagine tvOS will either.

Probably not. It's the nature of AirPlay 2 that won't do it.jonro said:I think this means that macOS or iOS will pass Dolby Atmos directly to Sonos speakers. Anyway, I hope so.

A new 3D printing filament can color-match a vintage Macintosh
Good observation! The Mac Plus (and original Mac 128, 512, and 512Ke models) had that very peculiar beige that matched the II+ and IIe of the time. In, I think, 1986, the company shifted to this color for the SE, Plus, and made IIgs and IIe models in the same platinumish color.mike1 said:The image shows a platinum roll. If that is the actual product, it would lead me to think it matches the color of the Mac SE. I think the Mac Plus was a little more beige.There were more Mac Plus models made in this platinum than beige.
