Apple Maps expands Look Around to four more US cities
NorthernKiddo said:Look Around is available all over Canada. Not sure if it’s to the same extent that the few big American cities are covered, but it’s pretty decent.
**just checked, and in Alberta, Canada, the cities of Edmonton, Calgary, and most small towns seem to be covered by Look Around.AppleInsider said:Apple this week rolled out the Apple Maps Look Around feature in Denver, Detroit, Miami and Fort Lauderdale, giving users a customized street level view of each city.
Look Around is available in 17 cities worldwide, most of which are located in the U.S. Beyond the UK, Ireland and Scotland, Japan is the only other international locale to benefit from the feature.
I checked the images from Victoria and it looks like they are from the Summer of 2019.
So Canada is way ahead in coverage! -
What the Apple Silicon M1 means for the future of Apple's Macs
What specific things will the Apple Silicon Mac’s not be able to do that the preceding Mac’s could?
Obviously we won’t be able to BootCamp and run 32-bit applications with an older system, but what else will not be possible?
Will we still be able to boot off an external device? I assume with the integration of system memory that memory upgrades on desktop Macs will be a thing of the past too. So much for getting around Apple’s overpriced memory premiums, or will this be still possible somehow? What might this mean for PCI based expansion cards? Will these still work when in a thunderbolt enclosure or directly installed in a Mac Pro?It’s an exciting new step but I will like to know how these things will be restricted too. Faster is good, but is it still extendable like our current and past Macs or are these more commoditized devices that will run Mac software but not the same types of Hardware? -
Apple One bundle includes Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and more

But what I'd really like to do is drop Arcade and get 2TB of storage instead of 200GB. And I have no need for News+ or Fitness+. So I hope there's some flexibility to customize here.

Search for "In case you missed anything."->"What if I need more iCloud storage?"
Still for any family 200 GB is really not enough.
One day they'll have to bump it. -
