With Apple adding 6TB and 12TB plans to iCloud, they really should allow Mac Backups to iCloud. A lot of people don’t like using Time Machine, and now you can have an iCloud plan that would fit an 8TB MacBook Pro backup. It’d also just be a nice form of redundancy on top of Time

Refurb iPad Pricing got updated, so the 2018 11” iPad Pro is now $469, down $50 from its previous price. This gets you Face ID, 120Hz, Stage Manager, P3, and a laminated display… for only $20 more than the new iPad 10. Not sure why you’d buy the 10th gen at this point…

Wow, M3 Max outperforms M2 Ultra in Geekbench! While a small margin, it's funny how Mac Pro always ages poorly. 2019 Mac Pro was released less than a year before the Apple Silicon transition, and now the M2 Ultra Mac Pro is being beat by a lower end chip 4 months after release.
