  • Apple sneaks in very old devices into iPhone 15 event video -- and omits one, too

    Previously whenever we would see into these apparently real working spaces at Apple, there would be many Mac Pro machines on the floor beside desks.

    There were none in this year's event video. Instead, every desk had a Mac Studio on it.

    Maybe that's actually proof that these are genuine working spaces -- and that the New Mac Pro isn't cutting it.

    The likelihood these are actual working spaces is probably somewhere between 0 and -1.

  • 'Baldur's Gate 3' lands on Mac September 21

    fully supported on macOS
    Great, then it will be available on the Apple App store, and I'll buy it. If it's not available on Apple's store, then it's not "fully supported on macOS." It's only partially supported. And then I won't buy it.
    Haha weird. The vast majority of my software isn't from or even available on the App Store. Pretty much all of my games are on Steam, too. There's nothing about them which in any way means less support for macOS than those on the App Store.

    So the Mac never had full software support before the Mac App Store, then.

    Okay. Really strange take.

    The point is, it was previously playable on Mac on streaming services. When the update arrives, then it will play on Apple Silicon on Macs. That's full support, not some strange "Only Mac App Store software is real software"
    My understanding from comments on Steam is that it's an early access version that's currently available to Mac users, and that this upcoming update is the "full" version release for macOS. They don't make this clear on the Steam product page at all. But, it's available to purchase/download/run.

  • Hands on: Apple's new FineWoven iPhone 15 cases

    First, USB-C, then a multi function button that no one needs. Now we are creating petri dishes for bacteria and inferior designs? Have they been drinking the google kool aid? 
    All that handwringing will probably kill any bacteria on your hands.

  • iPhone 15 USB-C will fix some problems, but create issues for most

    Let the manufactured outrage begin. “Havoc for millions” LOL yes, fire and brimstone, cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria… 🙄
