PROTIP For #Apple designer Susan Kare: Ditch the bling and make them affordable to actual human beings, and I bet you sell a lot more. Wouldn’t it be nice to sell many thousands instead of a few dozen? I think so. Nice designs, though. #tech #blockchain #capitalism www.theverge.com/news/6182…
One of the more reliable indicators of #Apple preparing to launch a new version of a system is when stocks on older machines start to drop. This appears to be happening now with the M3 #MacBookAir. The current #rumor is for a March release. #tech appleinsider.com/articles/…
UPDATE: The previous version of this post cited the current MBA with an M4, but it was supposed to be the M3. The updated version of the MBA should be getting the M4 soon.
Well, this is rather fascinating! Some mad genius hacked a Nokia Lumia 1020 to run #Apple’s #iOS for #iPhone. The trick? Inside the Lumia is an iPhone SE 3!! Still pretty damned cool, if I do say so myself. #retrocomputing #hardwarehacks #tech www.macworld.com/article/2…
It could be the #iPhone SE4, but I’d like to note that Mr. Cook asks us to “Get ready to meet the newest member of the family.” I think it could be the return of the AirPort. Look at the graphic for the announcement and the AirPort A1034 attached. Just sayin’. #tech #Apple 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…
It seems that #Apple has completed its acquisition of #Pixelmator, the makers of Pixelmator Pro which competes with #Adobe’s #Photoshop and #Photomator Pro which competes with Adobe’s #Lightroom. #iPadOS, #iOS, and #macOS are getting updates now or soon. #tech 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…
A story from #9to5Mac reporting on a report from #Samsung confirms earlier rumors that #Apple likely won’t be shipping #OLED #MacBookPro machines this year, but in 2026. And the #MacBookAir might not see the upgrade until 2029. #tech #news #supplychain 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…
The #UK’s #surveillance apparatus creeps from the void like Cthulhu hungering for a midnight snack. Note that in this order it is #unlawful to reveal to the public that they’re doing it to us… and I mean us because that power extends outside of the UK. #dystopia mjtsai.com/blog/2025…
I can’t code myself out of a paper bag, but I know the value of the skill of #programming and of #opensource, so good on #Apple for open sourcing #Swift Build. Now can you open source Mac OS Classic? Tim?… TIM?! #tech #news 9to5mac.com/2025/02/0…
If you don’t like the power coming on when you open the lid on your #MacBookPro #Apple has explained how to disable it. It takes a bit of work in the Terminal.app, but anyone should be able to do it if they follow the instructions. #tech #howto www.macworld.com/article/2…
Well, I’m not sure how much of a procedure this actually is. I generally prefer more conclusive steps, like… oh, I don’t know, having an Update Firmware button in the settings? #Apple #airpods #tech #howto 9to5mac.com/2025/01/2…
