The Japanese dedication to this principle is remarkable.

The fact that Voyager 1 and 2 are still operational is amazing. When the news came that Voyager 2 had gone dark, I thought its mission was over. But NASA engineers “kept working the problem” and managed to fix it – from 11+ billion miles away.

That was one hell of a blast. I hope everyone in the area knew about it because that would scare the bejesus out of you if you were just out walking the dog.

This is a long but fascinating story about a woman some of you may have heard of and whose life and death and age are still in dispute.

[VIDEO] When Apple rolled out the Pro Display XDR, they compared it to the much more expensive Sony Reference Monitor ($43,000). Reviewer Vincent Teoh digs in. Video embedded in main Loop post.

My wife and I watched the first episode last night and this review is pretty much how we felt about it. I’m not saying it’s a bad show but we didn’t laugh once during the first episode. Laughter should be a given in a sitcom.

Hey Wacom – if you had thought about this to begin with, you wouldn’t be in this trouble now. Companies need to learn what “opt-in” means.

With the way Jobs took over and made wholesale changes as well as inserting NeXT employees into almost every facet of the company, I always say today is the day NeXT acquired Apple.

Dave got his new AirPods Pro this week, so we spent some time talking about our thoughts on the product. We also discussed the improved Apple Maps, and share our thoughts on Apple News+.

Apple was damned if they did and damned if they didn’t. The biggest error was in not being more open and forthcoming about this decision as it was happening. That being said, this fine is likely an intentional slap on the wrist.

There’s just so much dumb in this story. The school should have known better (you can’t just publicly show a movie without paying the rights holder) and Disney’s legal department handled it in the worst possible way. They could have simply said, “Don’t do it again.” but they ended up embarrassing their company and causing a lot of ill will and hurt feelings.

John Randall: “The identity plays upon the three aspects of the restaurant’s name by unifying the swan and the mallard through the positive and negative space within the ampersand. A limited colour palette and minimalistic style helps create a simple … Continued

Anyone involved with Apple’s “Authorized Service Provider” program will recognize some of the restrictions here. Apple is notorious for the stringency of its terms and the unequal restrictions placed on those who want to do business with the company.

I learned how to play chess when Bobby Fischer was World Champion (yes – I’m old) but I bet every one of these kids could still beat me.

Wacom will undoubtedly offer a heartfelt apology and explanation as to why they do this but the big question will be, for how long have they been doing this and what do they do with the data? The other part of this is I wish I had half the technical chops this guy does.

If you’re a car guy, this thread will waste the rest of your day.

This is good news for developers and users alike.

This is kind of mindblowing. I also didn’t realize not everyone could “hear the voices in their head.”

It’s always good to have options.

This is a no-brainer that many of us have been saying from the start. In light of today’s departure of a key executive, I’ve been told Apple will announce a News+ bundle at or before WWDC this June.

I don’t know if Adobe is paying attention or cares (because they know their business model better than anyone else) but there’s certainly a groundswell of dissatisfied photographers (and others) who are looking for alternatives.

So much of the media is unquestioningly accepting Sacconaghi’s numbers without asking how he came about them or being critical of the report in general.

It may very well be “just a stunt” but as stunts go, it’s pretty cool. And sure, it may be an indictment of our consumer culture but wouldn’t it be great to have the money to be able to do this for people?

Knapsack: I’m late to the Apple Watch Series 5 game and I only bought mine last night. I’ve been putting off the purchase primarily because I’ve seen the 44mm on multiple wrists and the most common face, called Infograph, looked … Continued

Short version? Respect.

I’ve been following this story as an interested observer (I’m nowhere near smart enough to attempt any solution) for years and I love the mystery of it.

I don’t think Apple has a “Putin problem” at all. They won’t accede to this demand and will pull out of the Russian market. No problem. If this happened with China, then they’d have a real problem.
