  • Apple plans slimmest iPhone 17 & MacBook Pro designs following iPad Pro success

    Thinner is great until it bends.  I’m talking to you, iPhone 6.  

    Lighter is great until it starts to feel cheap look cheap, and still not be… inexpensive.  I’m talking to you, iPhone 5C.  

    Battery life is the number one thing people who can’t convenience charge want more of.

  • Apple is paying OpenAI with exposure, not cash

    No article about Musk losing his sh*t over this?

  • iOS 18 gains new slow charger warning in battery settings

    I think warns is a bit of a strong word.  It's more like identifies.

    Two Cents: Charing at higher power levels is more harmful to the battery than lower levels due to heat.   How much?  I have no idea.   All I know if wireless charging might as well be called wireless heating because my phone gets dang hot when I use it.   

    Manage your charging below 80% and your battery will last longer.  Convenience charge whenever you can, like when driving, sitting at your desk, or just using your phone on the couch.   Disconnect at 80% and try not to go below 20%.    If you know you're going to be away from a charger all day, charge to 100% and remove the phone and start using it as soon as it hits 100.

    This has been my TED talk.

  • Apple Intelligence inches closer to Apple's 1987 Knowledge Navigator

    Is it visionary or is it just wishful thinking and fiction to imagine products before technology exists that can even do a fraction of what is needed even at any cost?   

    There are no vacuum tube cell phones.   There are no nuclear-powered homes.   There are no jet packs and no anti-gravity trains.  

    But it’s fun to think of those things.

  • iPad finally has a Calculator app - Here's everything it can do

    I’m kinda bewildered (more than usual) about what took so long. 
    Craig Federighi stated, "Next, I want to talk about a feat that some have concluded must be a mathematical impossibility. That's right, we're bringing calculator to iPad (yay)."

    And then on the switch to MacOS with his Spaceballs stunt double parkouring down to the floor below made me lol. B)
