Apple debuts third-generation Apple Pencil with USB-C charging
Do none of you people remember this article from a few weeks back:
https://appleinsider.com/articles/23/09/30/apple-pencil-3-leak-claims-changeable-magnetic-tips-are-on-the-way
They’ll likely reintroduce pressure sensitivity via dedicated tips, so that only the people that need the function will have to pay for it.We’re all going to be ok. -
Apple TV+ cancels 'The Afterparty' after two seasons
davidmalcolm said:Honestly, the first season was absolutely awesome. The second one though, I feel like not having Yasper really brought down the appeal of the show. I wish they could have brought him back.I’ve watched a few episodes of the new one but I just don’t feel like it has the same magic as season 1.
I love how ruthless Apple is being with all these middling shows. -
Apple TV+ cancels 'The Afterparty' after two seasons

That wasn't until season two, where they mimiic different directors filming styles.
Each episode was also filmed in different ways, using the language of film genres to differentiate between the retelling by each suspect.
At least I have the next Agatha Christie murder mystery directed by Branagh to look forward to when it hits streaming.mike1 said:Xed said:I enjoyed both seasons and fully expected a cancelation.

edit: I checked. I see no genre theme per episode in S01, just the unique POV of the character being interviewed, like in the classic Rashoman.This page lists each episode from the first season and each of the film genres they mimic.You’re definitely correct about Rashomon, but the others are also correct about the film genres. -
iPad mini 7 could be a spec-bump instead of a full update

Kuo: Apple Watch is seeing a big sales decline year-over-year in 2023
mayfly said:iOS_Guy80 said:mayfly said:Apple's problem is that everyone who wants an Apple Watch already has one. And their incremental changes aren't going to drive upgrade cycles. The Ultra was new and different, but the buy-in was a big deterrent for the mass market. Things like Micro-LED screens won't do it. A total rethink is what it will take. I can't think of anything the Apple Watch 9 offers that would even make me consider upgrading my 7 series.
