i still have a maxed-out 2022 macbook that lasted me a month and then never turned on again.
once a year or so, i plug it in hoping it'll come back to life (it never does).

What good documentation from Apple.
Can we just not support Intel for this portion of Mitsukeru? Turns out its actually a lot of work to support hardware that has less than a year left in it.

Apple has acquired Israeli AI startup Qai, which develops technology that interprets "silent speech" by analyzing facial skin micromovements to detect mouthed words and assess emotions.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a MAC media player that allows me to view/sort ALLLLL the audio files I have on my local machine?
I have a vast repo of music I want to be able to play and sort through without being online. I DO NOT want to use apple music or spotify. I know there are ways to do it. Looking for a simple reco that isnt consuming to my macbook but I can straight up sift through 100s of gigs of my own files.

The worst feature of macos for me is window management (and virtual desktop management).
I can not understand how it can never remember where I’ve opened things before or the size. Worse still is the way virtual desktops will re-order themselves constantly 😳
Before you ask: I’ve tried Aerospace (it’s too resource hungry), and I use Raycast window management currently. Open to suggestions otherwise.

Apple to Revamp Siri as a Built-In iPhone, Mac Chatbot to Fend Off OpenAI
Apple plans to transform Siri into its first AI chatbot, code-named Campos, integrating it deeply across iPhone, iPad, and Mac OS.
The revamped Siri will replace the current interface and let users access the chatbot through existing Siri voice commands or buttons.

Why does iCloud’s spam detection underperform Gmail’s so much, at least in my experience? For every one junk mail that very occasionally makes it to my Gmail inbox, I get tens on iCloud.
And I’m not taking about spammy ads for services I once signed up for, I’m talking about phishing attempts: fake Docusign, MetaMask, Ledger, etc.
Is it because iCloud’s higher privacy means less intrusive detection?

My favorite thing about my new iPhone 17 is the updated haptics and the side button build quality. For a touch screen device, this is the most clickable my phone has ever felt. Every single interaction feels so much more tactile and feels way more delightful and meaningful.
Battery life be damned.
