M4 iMac vs 2019 Intel iMac compared: Five years makes a big difference
I have a 2017 27” iMac. I’d like to upgrade it, especially as the OS is stuck two versions behind, but no way I’ll upgrade to a smaller screen size. This leaves me looking at either the Mac mini or the Mac Studio, plus a 5k LG monitor. The mini is underpowered for what I want, and the studio didn’t get upgraded this cycle, so is still on M2. If there was a 27” iMac, I’d buy it today, but as it is, I’ll continue to wait. -

Editorial: How AirPods and Shortcuts shifted Apple's Siri story and blunted Amazon's Alexa...
I find Siri to be largely useless - I only use it to respond to texts while driving, and (literally) 90% of texts I try to send contain errors. I have an English accent, and it improves slightly if I fake an American accent, but it’s still garbage. If it can’t even get the simple stuff correct, I have no desire to try to use it for more complex activities. My echo on the other hand is phenomenally good at understanding me - I pretty much only use it for playing music, but it’s great. There is only one reason Siri isn’t dead, and that’s the size of the install base. In all other respects, Siri is far far behind, so much so that apple should be embarrassed, and whoever is in charge of that group should be fired. -
Apple updates macOS Sierra to 10.12.1 with Mail, Safari, Photos fixes
