This is a "we knew it was coming" disaster. Not because the apps I use frequently are Intel - almost all of them have migrated to Apple Silicon a long time ago. But one of my two remaining frequently used apps - Steam - is an indicator of the big p…

Alrescha said: AppleInsider said: It's not unusual for Apple to talk to iJustine. What is, is that for the first time since 2015, Apple executives didn't appear on The Talk Show with John Gruber during WWDC week. In 2024 Gruber desc…

" below average adoption despite Apple Intelligence" - maybe because of it? After all, Apple Intelligence has pretty much been a failure - the headlines it has generated was making up fake headlines and the Siri fiasco. I've yet to see an…

What I really want is access to game pass streaming on my devices. Native games would be good too, but especially streaming on AppleTV.

"AirPods Max is known for active noise cancellation." That's stretching it a bit. The Airpods Max impressed because they were as good as the Sony WH-1000XM4 when they were launched. In 2022 Sony released the WH-1000XM5 (They really need simpler name…

Does anyone know of a good, ultra widescreen monitor with two thunderbolt in connections? I have a stationary Mac and also connect a laptop frequently (work), and I'd rather have Thunderbolt for both connections than having to use both USB and disp…

I was in the market for new headphones to replace my Airpods Max, which had become rather unstable. If Apple had relessed a new version, I would have bought that on day one, Due to not bothering to even update the chips inside - or even less solvi…

Looks nice, the only disappointment is no Wifi 7. My current computer is Mac Studio M1 max. On the CPU side, going to a M4 pro looks better - more cores, faster cores. On the GPU side, it would be down from 32 cores to 20 cores - even if the new on…

blastdoor said: I agree with Microsoft. The irony is, we actually have a much more competitive market today than we did 25 years ago. Back in 1999, there was Wintel and not much else. Apple had about a 2% marketshare of the PC market, there …

Typically, if Apple has stopped distributing the product for more than five years, it's considered vintage They sold the original Homepod until March 2021, so that's just over three years - not even close to "more than five years". And speakers like…

CuJoYYC said: I'm sure the delay is Apple's fault. That's likely, actually. Before Apple launched lossless with no change in price, it was an option that came at a premium. When Apple just included it in their normal subscription, launc…
