Apple's new display rumored to launch at Apple event alongside new Mac mini
OutdoorAppDeveloper said:There are a lot of Mac users who have posted here in the past about how much they want an Apple Studio Display. I would really like to know why? I am genuinely curious. I thought it was a huge improvement when Apple started supporting HDMI connectors for displays so you could buy any third party screen you wanted. What is it about Apple displays that you find so desirable? Is it that the design will match your computer or do you think that the resolution or quality will be better? Perhaps it is that it will work better than a third party display (no fiddling with a wonky button on the display to set the options)? Please enlighten me.I've never owned an Apple Display, but owners of the previous model (not the XDR) seem to be very positive about it after all these years.I use a 10+ year old Dell display shared between a 2012 Mini and Windows PC (for occasional gaming). I'm ready for a new Mini paired with a new Apple Display, as staring at a good quality, long-lasting display is worth it to my old eyes. I've come close getting the 4K UltraFine (due to its MacOS integration and resolution), but quality issues (and aesthetics) turned me off. So for me: quality/long-lasting, MacOS integration, aesthetics, in this order. -
Apple uses Messages colors to bully Android users, says Google
mjtomlin said:The BIGGEST difference (and arguably the most important), between the blue and green bubbles… is that it shows which messages are end to end encrypted and which are not. All blue bubbles are encrypted. Green are not.From what I've read, RCS may or may not be end-to-end encrypted (Google Messages app has it, but other apps may or may not support it), while iMessage is always encrypted. It seems like RCS (Rich Communication Suite) is more about content than security. So just saying you support RCS does not imply encryption. Perhaps this ambiguity on encryption is why Apple don't support RCS.Edit: RCS does not specify encryption.
