I never had one but what a lovely, funny little Twitter thread.

As jealous as this article made me, it was actually quite interesting to find out how the filthy rich actually pay for their toys.

While I don’t use Apple Music, I still really like this idea.

Brings to mind the old cliche of “Don’t write down anything you don’t want your mother to read.”

This is actually really funny.

These may seem like dry reports but it signals to suppliers and the world that Apple is keeping an eye on the issue and doing something about it.

Clow isn’t a household name but his influence is felt throughout the advertising world.

We don’t have the #1 here in Vancouver so I can’t judge but I do agree with the writer that the memory of MacDonald’s fries is often better than the actual fries.

I’m biased because I’ve always been a fan of mophie (and their parent company provides prizes to my podcast) and I have and really like the mophie juice pack. But I’ve never used an Apple battery case.

I knew older iPhones were slower but half speed may be enough to convince my wife to upgrade her iPhone 6 Plus.

“Poised to challenge”? This is literally the dumbest take possible on this story. I have no problem with Samsung opening its own stores but given their past failures on so many fronts, including retail, how the writer could think that, with three US stores, Samsung could “challenge” Apple is beyond ridiculous.

If you haven’t seen this show, do yourself a favor and binge-watch it immediately.

Obviously, a self-selecting group but the general sentiment seems pretty common.

I get what they were going for but that’s a really weird way to describe it.

This will pit Allstate against Apple soon enough.

What a lovely gesture to make in honour of a friend.

There are reports this week that Apple is getting close to launching a news service on its platform, allowing users an “all-you-can-eat” type of experience. Also, Amazon purchased Eero, which has all kinds of people upset. And I stole Dave’s notes on a topic which had us both laughing.

It’s going to be really interesting to see how this all shakes out.

The future of “wireless” chargers isn’t here yet but the good news is it’s not far off.

Big, surprising news that will have repercussions throughout the company.

When I first read this story on Tuesday, I thought there might be something more to it. Turns out, Apple’s high number of “disengagements” is because of an overabundance of caution. Not a bad thing.

This is very bad news for Apple. They have long touted the safety and security of the App Store as a plus for consumers.

Ignoring the hyperbolic “Canada’s answer…” part of the headline, watch the video and tell me – are you in the target audience for this little car and would you buy it? I certainly wouldn’t but the two-seater roadster looks kinda cool.

I didn’t realize it had been so long ago since the last fatalities. As much as I hate flying, it’s comforting to know that, at least in the US, flying has never been safer.

I could not be prouder to be a Canadian.

This is a great example of technology being used to help people do something they can’t do for themselves.

Some of these are really well done. I hate that Tom Selleck is still so handsome.

I couldn’t put this on my bucket list fast enough after watching this video.

Of all the people at Apple who should know better, you’d think the guy who sent out emails that said, “Remember, trading is not permitted, whether or not in an open trading window, if you possess or have access to material information that has not been disclosed publicly.” At least, you’d hope he’d be smarter about it.

Someday, humans will arrive on Mars and find Opportunity and its fellow wanderer Spirit. I hope we have a fitting tribute to these little robots.
