  • Why drivers in Scotland are crashing because of bad Apple Maps data


    Driving into things that aren’t roads is so early 2000s.

  • Apple Vision Pro is surprisingly durable in first YouTube drop test

    This video is what it is, but no reasonable person will throw their VP to the ground from 8 feet in the air.

    The teardowns show us why this thing is $3500.   It’s crazy chock-full-of-tech.

  • First teardown shows complex insides of Apple Vision Pro

    This tear down was incredible.  There’s so many layers of tech inside the VP, it’s no wonder this thing is $3500 and up.  
    I don’t think it would have been possible without the M-series processor unless it was all crammed into a Fanny pack.  

    And many have ordered it with 512GB and 1TB of storage, boosting Apple’s margins even more.  And the case is $200.   And a spare battery.  Etc.   and I would not be surprised if Apple doesn’t tell us how many they sell at the next results call.

  • Apple Vision Pro review roundup: an experience that weighs on you

    “However, he ultimately feels he wants to "get work done" in the Vision Pro," and its "isolating" experience doesn't help matters.”

    People have been isolating themselves from others since the dawn of the smartphone. Everywhere you look people have their heads buried in their phones. No matter if it’s walking down the street, on the bus, train or library. People go out of their way to be less engaged with one another. 
    I can imagine virtual offices with one's work areas directly in front and one's online co-workers on the side, in the distance, etc, and having a smart-enough interface where if you called someone's name out, they'd come to the forefront (once acknowledged by them), then you'd have a AR facetime with them, discuss something, then get back to work. ...In about a decade or two.  

    Today, it would be a clumsy, interrupting experience, or worse.  But it might beat driving to an office.   Put on your VP and get to work.   The virtual office cubicle farm.

  • Apple Vision Pro battery cable is removable if you try hard enough

    I want to see the ifixit teardown of the VP.
