One of the main reasons I like (and pay a premium for) Apple devices and services is the top-notch experience. It absolutely grates to read News+ now, and it’s infuriating that these crappy ads will be expanding to other parts of the ecosystem.
Having a hard time figuring out where your Favorites bar comes from in a secondary profile in Safari? I’ve got the answer.
I agree with Snell here: The Apple TV, even with its price increases, is still the only streaming box on the market that isn’t completely junked up. I just wish that Apple would give it more love and attention.
Letting agents control your computer introduces a number of security concerns, but potential access to secrets like passwords is high on the list. I’m glad to see 1password taking a shot at addressing this.
Now that I’ve had more time to work with the new ChatGPT app, I’m even more convinced that it is “New Coke”-level bad. But read on, because GPT-Live—also introduced this week—is compelling.
Oof, shots fired! “As a natural result, OpenAI’s nascent hardware business now rests on the shakiest of foundations, rotten to its core by its illegal reliance on misappropriated trade secrets.”
I agree with Casey here. I cancelled my reservation and bought something else, despite being very interested in the R2, and the stubborn insistence to not offer CarPlay was a primary reason.
Forcing Mac app icons into a “squircle” shape is one of the weird, bad changes introduced in Tahoe, and it continues into the first developer beta of macOS 27 Golden Gate. Let’s hope the powers-that-be can be convinced to free the icons.
Yeah, it’s crazy that the long-in-the-tooth Apple TVs got hit so hard here. They were already priced at the premium level for their market, and now they’re out-of-this-world expensive. And with new models rumored, it’s a terrible time to buy one.
