  • Apple's 'Crush' iPad Pro ad sparks intense backlash from creatives

    I’m a creative and never would have seen any slight in this. In fact, it’s kind of clever in the same way that it’s like the 1984 commercial throwing a hammer through the legacy ways of computing… this new iPad is throwing down a new tool for all those artistic pursuits. And the very nature of art, we should all agree, is to make one think, feel enlightened, or see something in a different way. This ad does that.

  • A software engineer wore Apple Vision Pro to his wedding, much to his new bride's chagrin

    Porn on AVP can't come fast enough for this guy... because he's going to have a pretty lonely/short marriage.

  • Apple Vision Pro can be used in public, but mind your manners

    No matter how usable VP is in public space, since it is able to record the screen - thus to record me, but not giving a clue about it (you saw the video? the old guy seemed uncomfortable next to him, naturaly), I will be asking VP wearers to put the headset off the head. If they won’t comply and would continue pointing their head in inappropriate wide angle towards me (which is almost 180deg) I’ll put VP off their head myself.

    I don’t see public use of Vision Pro acceptable.
    Wow, dude. Do you push people off wheelchairs if they take too much time going through a door? There may be very legit medical and accessibility uses for VP in the very near future. Do you carry a can of spray paint to blot out all the security cameras that see you on the roads, in elevators, in stores, in pubic places, etc? Do you duct tape the mouths of people whose voices you don't want to hear? Going out in public is the very definition of giving up a bit of privacy so as to be a part of the world around us. Asking people to not focus on you is one thing, but the threat of physically attacking someone is, well... you might want to seek help. You can ASK people not to record you, and you can also get up and walk away. But you don't own that public space any more than the guy wearing the VP.

  • Apple's iPhone parts pairing is making the company billions

    I have no problem with this. I want my Apple product to work exactly as it was designed, and a sub-par part could compromise a lot. For example, what if a camera or Touch ID sensor pays a part in causing the security protections to fail? Data could be lost/stolen and who get the blame? Me as a consumer because I cheaped out? The scond-rate part manufacturer? Or Apple? (hint... one of those three has a lot more money than the other two, and the lawyers know it.)

  • Apple Vision Pro could make the invisible, visible for engineers, troubleshooters, and tec...

    I wonder if it would be possible to have a binoculars feature? Uses could be spotting and pinpointing forest fires from a firetower, navigating a boat, bird watching and identifying, etc.
