Apple now calls itself a gaming company fighting with Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo
... which is why there's basically 1 in 20 games on the Mac?
Its not like they can blame weak GPUs any more.

Apple Developer Transition Kits with Apple Silicon sports a A12Z chip in a $500 Mac mini
If this thing has a real GPU in it, that's it for my trash can. Maybe Apple's GPUs will be OK, because the current mini's are useless.

Anti-robocall legislation passes through US House, on track to become law
It is important to note that these systems will NOT stop robocalls. That’s non-trivial in the VOIP era when those calls can come from anywhere, most of which don’t care what laws the US passes.What it will do is allow you to see when someone is spoofing the caller ID. Those calls can be ignored. It’s definitely better than nothing, and hopefully it will reduce the cost benefit ratio to the point where it’s not worth doing. But the cynic in me thinks the typical marks for these scams will be happy to take any call and any excuse as to why the caller is says THIS IS SPOOFED.

Apple's 31.6-inch professional display may arrive soon, 17-inch MacBook Pro in early 2021 ...
"and both will incorporate micro LED backlighting"
Ummm, I don't think so.
I get the feeling he doesn't understand what microLED is.
There's no point backlighting with microLED, if you get an LED to cell-sized there's no point putting an LCD in front of it.

[quote]Similarly, apps that use OpenCL for computational tasks should now adopt Metal and Metal Performance Shaders[/quote] Pfft. No one is going to use MPS for compute workloads. No one.
