I haven’t seen it since it originally came out and I have no intention of watching it ever again – that’s why I didn’t embed it in this post. But some of you might enjoy it. Fair warning: Tarantino is right.

It’s hard to argue with this. Maybe it’s because I’ve “aged out” of my former low-level nerdiness but while the article points out “…there is more nerdy love in this world than hate,” it also makes the point that, likely because of the internet, “love is quiet, and hate is loud.”

It’s a show I’ve never warmed to but congratulations to everyone at Apple involved in it.

For better or worse, this is a case Apple will likely lose.

5G won’t be ready for at least another 18 months but this is ready on the new iPhones this Friday.

The Fifth Avenue Store will always be my favourite. I spoke to Steve Jobs and his wife outside the location five years before Apple opened it. He was looking at the plaza and pointing things out to his wife. He knew then what the store would look like. I hope I get to revisit this store in the near future.

This ad was shown during today’s NFL games.

This is the best news I’ve read all year. I’m one of those who have the big, hardcover Far Side collection books (literally, 20lbs of funny!) and I can’t wait to see what he comes up with after so long away.

Everyone will read this as being due to to the competition between Apple TV+ and Disney+ but as Tim Bajarin said on Twitter, “Iger resigning is to avoid any possible conflict of interest since they both now have streaming services. They actually co-exist well but this takes any potential threat from Wall Street over conflict of interest out of the picture.”

Dave and I took a few minutes to talk about the behavior of The New York Times reporter on Twitter, but quickly moved on to discussing all of the products Apple introduced at its event this week.

Interesting that Apple felt the need to respond to the Goldman Sachs call.

It’s a cute little video but certainly doesn’t show how “tough” the new phones are.

I can’t even imagine being in a position where I could turn down half a billion dollars but given the details in the article, you can kind of understand why Abrams did it.

There are some very interesting titles included in this video. Definitely looks like it will be worth the $5 a month.

Apple events are interesting in many ways. We get to see the new products from Apple, obviously, but we also talk with other reporters and analysts about where the various markets are heading. For one New York Times reporter, Jack Nicas, it’s an opportunity to shame other people. […]

Pretty impressive.

It’s often hard to justify the cost of AppleCare+ but this will help a great deal.

I’ve flown a drone in the past but even in my wildest dreams, I couldn’t imagine flying one this well.

I usually hate these “hands on” pieces because they are so limited but Snell has uncovered several details not shown on stage that make me even more excited about the new iPhones from a photography point of view.

And it will do so much more. This is why the rumors of “Apple Tags” ran rampant.

Basically, it’s “future proofing” your iPhone 11 devices.

I attended the iPhone 11 event this morning in Cupertino, Calif. and was impressed with Apple’s hardware and software releases. I’ll go into more detail in the coming days, including on my podcast, but I wanted to share some things that really stood out to me. […]

The FiLMiC Pro demo alone makes me want to buy an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

If you had told me this video was the opening sequence to the next Alien movie, I would have believed you.

Need a dose of goodness? Watch these two precious little boys greeting each other on the streest of Nw York City.

Slightly odd that Apple didn’t specify the various OS release dates during this morning’s keynote.

It’s a day late (my apologies) but many of you may not know what The Publisher of The Loop sounds/looks like. You might be surprised.

Apple has posted the full video of this morning’s Apple event in case you didn’t watch it live.

I was never a Pacman player but I gave up hundreds of quarters to Space Invaders.

I’m just childish enough to happily show this to my son, to the chagrin of his mother.
