  • Rare 1988 Apple Watch predecessor 'WristMac' expected to get $25K at auction

    This got me thinking why Apple Watch can't take picture. It would be a really cool feature if it does. It doesn't has to be HD resolution picture.
    There are aftermarket cameras for the Apple Watch.  I doubt they sell many.  

    You can use the Apple Watch to control an iPhone camera, which can be super useful.  The other day I used that feature to take a picture of the back of my car when I had my foot on the brake pedal to determine which bulb was out.

  • Jony Ive's LoveFrom unveils Terra Carta Seal recognizing corporate sustainability efforts

    If this doesn't represent how out of touch our elite class is, I don't know what does.  Not to slam AI at all here, but this is a story about a former Apple design chief who "unveiled" a.....logo.  But wait, it's better.  It's a logo for an abstract "sustainability" initiative pushed by professional climate lunatic, hypocrite and royal bag of douche, Prince Chaahhles.  I get why AI would cover it...Jonny Ive was responsible for such much that is Apple.  But this guy seems to have become a caricature of himself.  Remember the parodies about (fake) Apple product introductions? That's nearly what this is.  I'd like it better if he, you know, designed a beautiful product that was functional and helped the environment. 




    Thank you! Could not have said it better.

  • Apple debuts 14-inch MacBook Pro with HDMI, MagSafe, and a notch

    Does this mean that a USB-C dock that is capable of charging still deliver I/O and charging to the MacBook, or will both the USB-C cable and Magsafe charger need to be connected?
    Apple announced that you can still charge over USB-C, so you shouldn’t need to connect both.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Galaxy Z Flip3 5G announced at Galaxy Unpacked

    I have never seen anyone using these phones in public. 
    An old friend of mine has had a Samsung folding phone for about year and he's happy with it.  He appreciates the fact that it folds small enough to easily fit in a jeans pocket.  I looked at it for a few minutes and the screen quality etc. seemed fine.

    I'm not interested in an Android phone and I thoroughly enjoyed Samsung's missteps with the first folding screen phones.  However, they seem to have figured it out.

  • Rapper Soulja Boy claims Steve Jobs gave him the first iPhone

    If the iPhone went on sale two weeks earlier, this person was probably NOT among the first rappers to get an iPhone. Sales were brisk - probably a few hundred thousand sold by then. Like most other successful people, don’t rappers like shiny things?
