    If we consider that EU is forcing USB-C only. Then that means new keyboards, mice, and trackpads that are USB-C. Then there is a downside for including USB-A on the mini as it needs some ports to charge and some to use for some other devices.
    The mini doesn't charge
    The wireless keyboard, mouse and trackpad do charge. Often the devices are charged from the computer, or sometimes have to be plugged in to fix a sync issue.

  • A unique attack could steal your passwords from Apple Vision Pro

    I frankly do not understand how this could potentially work on the Apple Vision Pro. The eyes are totally covered by the device. there is no way to watch the users eyes from let’s say a remote camera (the eyes on the front display are not real) . The hacking software would already need to run on the Vision Pro, which would’ve meant that the device is  anyway already severely compromised and most likely passwords and everything else are accessible to the hacker. Maybe in some European Union side loading scenario this is possible if the user unintentionally installed the software from a hacked App Store.
    It is fixed. It never ran on the AVP. It worked by watching users of AVP persona which relayed what users were looking at.

  • iPhone users still aren't rushing to buy the latest models

    The new phones have Secure Enclave, which brings hardware based privacy lights for the camera. Before this, it was software, which can be changed. With hardware it will be much harder to mess with the light by malware.

    At some point you are not going to shrink the die anymore. Then what will happen? How much innovation can you fit in to a phone anyhow? What can you possibility need more in a phone?
