  • Apple's first developer betas for its fall OS updates have arrived

    If you want the AI code help, you need a minimum of 16gb memory per release notes. That means 1 of 3 computers our household owns can use it.

    • Xcode 16 includes predictive code completion, powered by a machine learning model specifically trained for Swift and Apple SDKs. Predictive code completion requires a Mac with Apple silicon and 16GB of unified memory, running macOS 15. (116310768)

  • If you're using a Magic Keyboard, you've opened up an attack vector

    Does anybody know what the Magic Keyboard uses to communicate when you have it plugged into the computer?

    I notice on my Mac that it greys out the Bluetooth Connection for the keyboard though it still has the icon coloured blue.

    Is it still using Bluetooth for communication or is it using the USB cable?
    If the Magic Keyboard is plugged in, it is communicating using USB. Handy when it looses Bluetooth connection. I have my Magic Keyboard and trackpad plugged in via kvm so I can also use them on my Linux desktop.

    This on device processing is also important for bad or no internet connection situations.
    I dont have any issues of internet connection unless your in Timbuktu. W dual sim on different carrier helps a lot even in overseas. So this ON device processing is again an additional layer of availability of your request.
    Congratulations, not my experience though. I've had problems in subways, large crowds, US National parks, and other real areas. Areas with no cellular signal are not helped by having dual sims. Many areas of the US have no cellular service. I spent two weeks camping this summer, and not a single bar of cell service. I had to drive for miles for cell service good enough to have internet.
    I’ve been considering a separate Esim for uk train journeys. One on say 3 and the other on say EE. Looking at the coverage maps on ofcom, they compliment each others coverage. Thing is, not sure how fast switching between networks is, especially at 125 mph…
    It has been over a decade since I lived in Europe, so I can't help you there.
