if you really care about the planet, you longingly gaze at your unpowered Mac mini when stepping out of the commune-tent to eat a bug snack. Otherwise you're just an eco-poser..

I'm really curious when the widescreen (2x4k) screen sharing from Mac to AVP shows up.  It would definitely make it more useful as a mobile display.

Please Apple, please, while you’re at it, redesign the god-awful Magic Mouse so that most of the users don’t have to throw it in the drawer at the day of purchase, replacing it with an actual usable mouse.

Never used any of mine. Drawer filler for sure.

An actual height to fit hands, modern optics for better DPI, higher Hz rates, and updated wireless AND wired modes would make it actual Magic.  As it is, the only trick it has performed is making itself disappear from my desk as well.

(It's the only mouse with good vertical *and* horizontal scrolling, lets you gesture for other common trackpad functions as well - but was the only mouse ever to make me feel like I was getting carpal tunnel issues, and the Bluetooth connectivity is so janky compared to mice from more recent decades that it's just unusable.  I'm convinced they don't have anyone working on the mouse team at all anymore.)

More government more censorship less freedom.

I suspect that the majority of "net neutrality" advocates are quite comfortable with government directly - and working hand-in-hand with these same tech companies and carriers - to remove non-government-approved information.

They're just trying to prevent the spread of dangerous misinformation like all freedom-supporting regimes do.
