  • Future Apple Vision Pro rumored to be directly connected to a Mac

    Honestly this is what I'd want. VR/stereo video content creation on Mac. Hell there are still VR features in Final Cut Pro that —I think — work with what, Vive headsets? If anything? SteamVR games. Like the PSVR2 headset. Mac virtual display. I get why it exists as the separate product that it is now first and foremost, but a "dumb" terminal Mac-tethered headset would be great to have available at a lesser price.

  • What to expect from the M5 MacBook Pro, and when to expect it

    Strange to omit the tandem OLED screens in the M4 iPad Pros as an indicator of where the MBPs will land. I can't imagine those having this display tech and the MBP lagging behind for much longer.

    The only possible reason I can think of for running OS 9 is to play Lunatic Fringe.
    Oh wow, I totally forgot about that game. What a blast from the past. :)

  • Apple's rumored Home Hub said to be under employee testing

    Agree with most of what is said here, Apple missed the boat in not acquiring Eero IMHO as mesh wifi could have been a fondation in building out the smart home—Homepods, AppleTVs, security cameras, baby monitors, sensors, should all double as mesh wifi nodes.  Apple would have been perfect to compete in the home security market—great opportunities for further build outs of services etc etc.  And a base for more usable robotics, i.e patrolling drones and vacuums.
    They finally released their first wireless chip, perhaps that changes the equation.

  • Inside Apple Music: how you can get the most out of Apple's music streaming service

    What about the Music app for Mac? 
    They removed the ability to edit track listings in music already loaded on an iPhone that iTunes had.

    Before, in iTunes, I could easily correct spelling, or change an album name slightly on the iPhone so it would sit in the correct alphabetical order.
    For instance, some recordings from Germany will show “Symphonie Nr. 8”, when I prefer Symphony No.8.

    Now after altering the name on my Mac, I have to delete the cording from my iPhone, then reinstall it. Annoying.
    You can't do this in Finder now? It's been so long since I manually managed tracks on my devices. But can you not just put all your tracks into a Playlist, edit the Playlist, and re-sync in Finder? Either way, you should save yourself all of this frustration by just using Cloud Music Library.
