In honour of the Canada Day Long Weekend, I post this story about the greatest backyard toy ever invented.

I loved some of these videos.

Dave and I talked about some fun topics today including battery life in Apple products and counterfeit products at Amazon, but we went off topic a lot and just had a blast talking about everything.

This is a fun ad that made me smile.

This is VERY bad news.

Look for more news like this as Apple tries to snap up even more talent for its ARM-based Mac efforts.

Obviously, it’s a design decision but it’s still frustrating.

I definitely would have preferred this version to the one that became Alien 3.

As always, if you are participating in this beta, make sure you have a recent, verified backup of your data.

As more and more companies use subscription services, we’ll have to be vigilant to make sure we keep an eye on them. Those $5-$10/month services can really add up.

This is an overly romanticized view of driving. The vast majority of people generally hate it and will be more than happy to become passengers in autonomous vehicles.

We knew Apple had some kind of review process but the details in this story are quite interesting.

Homey the Clown, “Men on Films,” Fire Marshall Bill. Still some of the funniest, edgiest stuff ever seen on TV.

Dave had a nice little surprise today as he explained about using Siri with Wolfram to get better answers. We also talked about Apple gaming and the overall companies product strategy.

I used to really like this show until a few years ago when I found out it was completely fabricated.

This letter will likely have no effect on the administration’s decision to impose these tariffs.

The page details how to check if your MacBook Pro is affected and what to do next.

Cue the inevitable complains about Adobe’s subscription plans.

They are not yet in the developer betas but Federighi said they’ll be updated for the public beta.

This is not unexpected and provides a good test bed for Apple. Minor point: Why does Bloomberg call it a “Goldman Credit Card” in the headline?

We don’t really know but this is a great synopsis of what authorities do know with a lot of valid supposition thrown in.

This may seem like a silly story but it’s actually terrifying. All it would take is one specific disease and it could wipe out the entire dairy industry.

So many of us use our devices without any thought to how to access them but, if you have accessibility issues, it’s not so easy. Apple isn’t perfect but they do a lot to assist those who can’t use their devices like the rest of us do.

What’s old is new again.

You’d have to be a completely ill-informed moron to use a digital currency system backed by Facebook. Sadly, Facebook is full of those people and this will be a huge success.

Looks like the new VP is starting to put her stamp on the place.

The tech media is always happy to jump on Apple. Let’s see if they report this story as “thoroughly” as they reported the original.

Cook gave the commencement speech this week for the 2019 class at Standford University and had harsh words for the general tech industry. Saying, “Too many seem to think that good intentions excuse away harmful outcomes,” Cook took his industry to task.

One month from today will be the 50th anniversary of the most incredible achievement in mankind’s history. This real-time tracking of those events is utterly amazing.

This is another reason why I refuse to have a so-called “Smart TV” in my home. I just want a big, dumb piece of glass to show me pretty pictures.
