  • Only heroes use iPhones on TV, but they use them a lot

    And you do not want to know how Mabel describes Android phones in a voiceover.

    Oh… but I do. Now that you piqued my interest. Why would you write this if you aren’t going to tell us?
    Pssst... there's a link to the script in the article. There are a couple of different early drafts online but this is the one with the Pencil and the, um, comments about Android.

  • 'Slow Horses' gets two more seasons on Apple TV+

    I so excited, lol. Yeah, it's a great series and I'm onboard. Apple must have had to garuntee four seasons to keep Oldman, because that seems to be a really rare deal.

    There been a few series that had a second season green lit  before the first one finished, and even a couple that were "renewed" before the first season started. The first season bears rewatching and holds up really well. Oldman is great, the rest of the cast is very good, but my favorite is Mrs. Standish (Saskia Reeves).
    It's not uncommon for a production company to negotiate a two-season deal right at the off, but agree with the network or streamer to not say so. It lets them claim to be back by popular demand, and also to have the second run ready sooner than if they really waited for the show to be seen. We know See-Saw Films got a two-season order from Apple at the start because they made the first and second back to back, but it's curious that neither they nor Apple made a bit deal of announcing the second season.

  • Snapchat launches selfie drone Pixy

    Sorry, everyone: my mistake. The first information we had said $230 but I went through the ordering process to check and learned it was really $250: managed to delete the 2 as well as add the 5.

  • Apple reopening 32 UK Apple Stores on June 15

    Birmingham?
    Thank you: that store fell off my spreadsheet for some reason – which is extra peculiar because I'm in the UK and it's my local one. It's fixed now and I appreciate it.

  • How to use iCloud Drive Folder Sharing in iOS 13.4 and macOS 10.15.4

    If I’m not on Catalina but am on iOS 13.4 and share a folder does that mean I lose access to it on my Mac?
    You can't initiate sharing the folder on your Mac unless you're on Catalina 10.15.4 or later, but if you share it from Files on iOS, the contents will get synced between there and your Mac. So you'd keep access to your own folder. You wouldn't get access to anyone else's shared folder on your Mac, or at least not in the same way. When you're on an older version of macOS or iOS and you get an invitation, Apple takes you to iCloud.com to accept it.
