Have you ever slept on a buckwheat pillow? It’s kind of like a beanbag for your head. Hullo includes…
Drop what you’re doing—go and check out Hullo. Try it for 60 nights. If it’s not your favorite pillow, return it for a refund. No-brainer!
I have this plug-in and it’s amazing.
I like the Sunset Metallic and 3-Color Sunburst, but I’d take any of them.
A massive 10-page review from Rene. Great job.
The ruling came a week after what would have been the May 4 start of a criminal trial in Manhattan federal court of Ceglia, a 41-year-old wood pellet salesman from Wellsville, New York.
Instead, Ceglia removed his electronic ankle bracelet in early March and disappeared, along with his wife, two children and a dog. His whereabouts remain unknown.
Paul Ceglia forged documents and claimed Mark Zuckerberg owed him half of Facebook. Ceglia is now a fugitive and Facebook is suing the lawyers. I think it’s great.
The Washington Post compiled some of the best quotes from the new book written about Elon Musk.
A new book on Elon by Ashlee Vance. I’m thinking this is going to be a great read.
Hard to believe all of those things are related, but they are.
Wow! One of my all-time favorite apps will now be available on all of my devices.
Apple today announced an expansion of its renewable energy and environmental protection initiatives in China, including a new multi-year project with World Wildlife Fund to significantly increase responsibly managed forests across China. The new forestland program aims to protect as much as 1 million acres of responsibly managed working forests which provide fiber for pulp, paper and wood products.
Apple is doing so much more than just releasing products.
I thought they did a great job with this commercial.
With regard to Apple’s Cook, he said: “He’s interested in Apple’s intervention in the car, that’s his role.” Marchionne was not more specific about Apple.
Apple is one of the few companies with the money and resources to come up with something interesting in the automobile space.
Still one of the most famous goals in hockey.

This is a must see if you’re interested in recording. Bob Clearmountain is the best in the industry.
Great article from Tim Bajarin on the mistakes and lack of understanding Google had with glass.
Uber has submitted a bid for Here, the main competitor to Google Maps, for as much as $3 billion, according to three people with knowledge of the offer, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. Here is owned by Nokia, the Finnish telecom giant, which announced last month that it was considering selling the business.
Makes sense for Uber, but there’s stiff competition to purchase the mapping service.
Jim and Dan talk about Beats Music’s relaunch might hurt Spotify more than others, the new Apple TV remote’s probable touch pad redesign, Microsoft’s emoji additions, the Reserve Strap, Apple’s launch of the ‘Made for Apple Watch’ third-party band program, and more.
Learn about Applebot, the web crawler for Apple.
Interesting.
Among many other things, David Morgenstern was a long time Mac journalist. He was also a friend. Rest in Peace, David.
Tony made the iPod and worked on several versions of the iPhone before leaving Apple. This is when he founded Nest. I have a ton of respect for Tony and his thoughts on products. Note that this interview was done before the Apple Watch came out.
Wow, just wow.
Developed by Softube — and available exclusively for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo audio interfaces — the Marshall Plexi Super Lead 1959 plug-in is an expert emulation of the 100-watt British classic that defined the sound of rock.
And
The Neve 88 Series is a paragon of large-format analog console design. Introduced in 2001, the 88 Series is renowned for its startling depth, airiness, and clarity — deftly encompassing the best of all Neve designs that came before it.
I love the Marshall amp plug-in. Truly great work from UA, again.
Besides the fact they are malicious, copying, stinking bastards, their customer service sucks balls.
Apple’s iOS reached 20.3 percent share of the market for the first quarter of 2015 in Europe’s big five countries of Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, and Spain, according to a new report from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech.
Federico Viticci came up some a list of things he would like to see in the next version of iOS. As you might expect, some of the things on the list are fixes for the current operating system, but it’s an interesting read.
Swedish music streamer Spotify has more to lose from Apple’s anticipated Beats Music revamp than its competition, according to new usage data, as iOS accounts for a majority of Spotify’s active users.
Apple really has to do this right. We’ve seen music services do big, splashy relaunches and users really don’t care—I really don’t care. There are some key points that Apple needs to take care of to beat out Spotify—if they don’t, it’s going to be a tough road ahead for them. Music is very important to Apple, there is no doubt about that, but they have to keep the focus and intensity on this that they’ve shown for their other products.
Craig Hockenberry:
I started reporting these issues early in the Yosemite beta release and provided tons of documentation to Apple engineering. It was frustrating to have a Mac that lost its network connection every few days because the network interfaces were disabled while waking from sleep (and there was no way to disable this new “feature”.)
Marco Arment and many others are having similar issues.
They pay for shipping and promise a three-day turnaround. I feel like doing it just to see how it works.
Great performance.
