Disingenuous. 1) You didn't buy it. 2) You were issued it after a lot of training on regulations about when, where, and how to use it. 3) You had an entire chain of command that enforced the regulations about using it. Regulations. Now where have I heard that before?

Hey folks! Don't like a front-page ad you're seeing on AppleInsider? 99.9% of the time, that's Google picking. Google selects ads for those slots based on what it thinks it knows about you. Click that X and tell Google why you don't like it.

We've been covering Apple patents for a long time, and it was surprising how many of them that weren't for a headset popped up in the demos of features.

From smart ring patents to others for projecting a Mac's desktop out onto the wall, Apple has been hiding Apple Vision Pro work in plain sight for years. Here's what we've spotted over the years. By @WGallagher

One year. Feels like both a week and an eternity since my little baby has been gone.

Well this is something I've been reluctant to share clean for years given the rarity and the quality, but here's a PAL Umatic 1st Gen copy of William Shatner performing Rocket Man on the Science Fiction Film Awards

@EdHines1977 @JasonKirell It depends, right? As a Marine, maybe. As a reactor chemist, it didn't matter if I did the mile and a half barely meeting spec, or in 9 minutes.

This may be the longest review I've ever written. Touches on a lot about the machine, beyond performance. Do me a solid and give it a read!

Review: Apple's high-end Mac Studio with M1 Ultra processor is very clearly not for everybody, but every Mac user should be excited about what it portends for the very-near future.

Tysons Corner was the location of the very first Apple Store to open, and on its 22-year anniversary it opens again in a larger venue. Here's what it looks like inside -- and out.

Get the fuck out of here with this. The US (emphasis US) Coast Guard went so far out of their way to help a company with a Canadian flag where "safety" and "experience" wasn't even something they considered in the interest of profit margin. Blame the feckless company, not the CG

There's a lot to say about the 16-inch MacBook Pro. The main takeaway is, if you need a portable Mac Pro, the M3 Max will give it to you, today.

Review: The 16-inch MacBook Pro with M3 Max, especially outfitted like our review unit, is expensive, but delivers power & computing heft roughly equivalent to the M2 Ultra Mac Studio for that cash. By @mike_wuerthele

This has been a saga for a decade. Apple & Qualcomm suing each other, settlements, Qualcomm saying that they expected the iPhone to not use its modem by 2024, and so much more.

Qualcomm will be supplying Apple with 5G modems for the iPhone up until 2026, a deal that delays the arrival of an Apple-created modem in the smartphone for a few more years. By @MalcolmOwen
