The funny thing about your edit is that I wish the headphone jack was still in the back because I use regular speakers and all my headphones can connect via usb. Now, unless I use a dock (which will probably have to happen anyway eventually, to be fair) I’ll have to plug things in the front and back at all times.
It’s in a weird spot, but it’s also 1.5lbs. so I don’t feel like it’ll be too much effort to slip a finger under there.
Do you not already have to reach behind your current Mini to turn it on in the instance the power goes out?
Now instead of reaching around, you just would have to reach to basically the same area and press a button underneath. Unless you have a bunch of junk on top of the computer, it’s going to take the same amount of effort.
All for the low price of $7,000.
I hope they don’t get stingy on the ports.
I know some people will “everything is usb-c now!” except everything isn’t, so stop.
I have a ten year old Mac Mini on my desk that has two FireWire, four usb, an sd card reader, and Ethernet. I still want most of these things (though, of course swap FireWire for some number of usb-c). I don’t want to HAVE to buy a dock for this machine.
In hearing that it’ll be smaller, my initial assumption is Apple will do the Apple thing and arbitrarily reduce the number of ports while saying “if you want more here’s the Mac Studio that’s way more expensive!”
I still have an iPhone 4 in a drawer and it’s totally flat on the back. Still looks really cool.
Apple: “Our new chips are more efficient so we can make devices thinner with a smaller battery and still get 10 hours of battery!”
Everyone: “Or just keep them the same and use a bigger battery to get, like 15-20 hours of battery?”
Apple: “NO.”
Lots of updates coming to the ios calculator with ios18. They obviously focused on the ipad version because it has the written math notes stuff, but a lot of those features are coming to the iphone, too.

The current calculator has had a lot more options if you turn the phone sideways, but no one ever does that. Personally, I’m a pCalc guy.
RCS, I suppose, so we can stop hearing about it.
That’s fair.
Hopefully there’s a toggle to turn it off.
At least Apple isn’t taking a screenshot of your device every three seconds and saving it in plain text.
Just let it understand the word “and” and I’ll be happy.
I’ve been trying to get my parents to use a password manager for years now. They have a piece of paper with a bunch of passwords on that’s one coffee spill away from a disaster.
I’ve tried getting them to use Bitwarden or any other simple manager, but nothing has stuck.
A “default” one from Apple, might, though. They are more amenable to stuff “built in” (that will also not be hidden down in some settings menus like how the current iOS passwords are stored.) So bring it on.
Yep. So weird to not see the outrage then.
I wasn’t upset with this Apple commercial. But I am definitely upset with this LG commercial.
The market is saturated. Everyone has a phone, and only so many will need one next year.
I still have a 12Pro (and had a 6s until is started acting up), and its fine. The camera is kinda trash, but otherwise it’s never had an issue running any app I’ve tried.
I tend to ride with a phone until it dies, and I bet most people are the same way.

I’m less bothered about the App Store than I am just allowing these devices with these very powerful chips to stretch their wings.
And it’s just simple things, too. iPadOS should allow you to have two different audio tracks going at once. It can handle that. But it’s too skewed to being a “bigger iPhone” than it is a “smaller MacBook.”
And I honestly love my iPad. Using it right this moment with a wireless KB and trackpad. And I’m happy I can extend the display relatively easily to a monitor now, too.
But it could definitely be so much more if the handcuffs were taken off.
So Apple hardware that’s super powerful but has bad software to support all that power?
“Where have I heard that one before?” he types on his iPad Pro…
Mine so far has had no issues like this. I have one monitor connected straight into the HDMI port and another monitor via a Dell dock (from work).
