Upcoming M4-based Mac mini rumored to replace USB-A with more USB-C ports
edr said:Really really unfortunate if they remove <any> of the ports the mini currently has. There are still a bunch of items out there that are USB-A only (keyboard/controller dongles and various others, now you will need an ugly USB-C dongle to use them).I don't see what the problem is. One can bring over their legacy cruft by utilizing a small, inexpensive $2 adapter, allowing the rest of us to go boldly into the superior USB-C future without legacy ports holding us back. Amazon has these adapters, 3 for $5.99. -

Epic's Tim Sweeney ludicrously calls Apple's 'Find My' a privacy hazard for thieves
I live minutes away from Epic Games headquarters, which is in Cary, North Carolina. There's even an Epic employee who lives at the end of my street. I can tell you there is absolutely a reason why Tim Sweeney is known as the "dick of the Triangle". One of his recent stunts actually ruined the retail revitalization plans of Cary's largest mall. He swooped in and bought the entire property for $95 million and shut down the entire mall for his new headquarters. The town, its planners, and all the retail partners involved were blindsided by this. When the kids at the nearby Cary High School lament that they have one less hangout spot and one less food court to go to, yet pine to play Fortnite on their iPhones again, one can point out to them that the "dick of the Triangle" was responsible for both situations. -
Apple stock overtakes Microsoft on increased AI expectations
DAalseth said:Every time there is a big innovation people try to put it in everything. Then after a few years they realize that most of those applications were stupid*. This will be the way with AI. Right now they want it in everything, while we the customers just want a Siri that can understand linked questions and a spelling checker that won’t recommend ‘banana’ when I type ‘mountai’. I am actually glad to hear that most of the Apple Intelligence features will be rolled out separately over the next year. That way I can hunt them down and kill them one at a time.
