  • Quest Pro is Meta's new $1,499 mixed reality headset

    Not being snarky, ok maybe a little, but what does one DO with one of these.
    When Apple comes out with theirs, I expect to use it for a virtual work area. Think multiple monitors that are portable. See immersed.com for example.
    I tried the Quest 2 and it was clunky and an eye strain to use.  10% more pixels per degree of visibility isn't enough of an improvement IMHO. Not to mention the tracking, mining and sharing of personal information and the general untrustworthiness Meta is known for.

  • MagSafe Battery Pack review: One year later, still the one to beat

    The Anker 622 is cute and lighter-weight but the wireless charging is very slow and--as alluded to in the article--generates a lot of heat. So much heat that the iPhone (13 Pro Max) put up a message that charging was paused due to overheating, when the iPhone-Anker combo was in my jacket pocket. The iPhone was indeed hot. I recommend using a USB-C-to-Lightning cable for charging with this battery instead of wireless charging.

  • Russia regulator demands answers for VK removal from the App Store

    Thank God US is not a authoritative nation. Trump wanted to ban WeChat, TikTok from US. He did not succeed. On this point US is superior to China. 
    Thanks to a popular "TikTok Challenge", the U.S. has suffered a lengthy rash of thefts of Kia vehicles and crash-and-grab heists at jewelry stores and gunshops. I doubt China cared to suppress these videos.

    Well, better do not read any news at all. I prefer to speak in person with people who live there. When you talk with Kyiv citizens, the events that are taking place do not seem so obvious (since 2014).

    One more time, stop reading mass media and use your own head.

    We must do whatever it takes to stop the Putin-fascist forces.

    By any means necessary. 
    Have you ever been there, to say such a words? How many real Ukrainians (especially which don’t speak Ukrainian) do you talk with, to really know what happening there?
    So Stop reading reliable and diverse news sources with feet on the ground in Russia and Ukraine and believe a Russian apologies who provides no evidence? 

    And to your point: one of my (recent) co-workers is a Russian from Ukraine - several family member were trapped in Ukraine when Russia invaded. So, them. They really don't like Putin.

    As of May this year, somewhere around 15 million Ukrainian refugees and displaced by Putin's war. That's a lot of people to speak with.

  • You'll need an iPhone 14 to see all of AT&T's 5G network

    Glad I dumped AT&T after 20+ years for T-Mobile. Unlimited service for half the price and no wondering each month how much the taxes and fees will add up to. 5G UltraCapacity is super!
