It may just be my imagination but I’m seeing more and more discussion about this recently. It will still take many years before getting rid of daylight saving time is a widespread talking point but its time may be coming to an end (see what I did there?).

I saw this on Twitter when it happened last week and was blown away. Really interesting to read how the Weather Channel pulled it off.

My wife has small hands and has an issue with the size of her hand-me-down 6 Plus. But does Apple have a “responsibility” to make phones that fit every hand size? Where does it end?

In Canada, even our whales are friendly.

Kocienda is on a book tour to promote his book.

I understand both sides of the argument but still – I wish Apple would continue to include it.

I just got out of Apple’s iPhone Xs event, so Dave and I got together and recorded a podcast with out thoughts on all the new products.

Now you can purchase AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss protection. Costs $100 more than traditional Apple Care+ but will cover the theft of your device. Nice catch by Wil.

I said on last week’s Your Mac Life show that, if Apple didn’t announce a release date for the Airpower, it would be the biggest embarrassment of this event. I stand by that.

Don’t have time to watch the 90+ minutes of the Apple Event video? The BBC has your back with this video.

This is really helpful for those of us trying to figure out which model iPhone my wife gets.

It was pretty damn funny when I realized what he’d done. Bravo, Tim Cook!

Apple has quickly made the video of this morning events available.

The bokeh slider is an interesting effect but I wish they had used a better example than in the demo.

Along with the hardware announcements, this is expected and welcome software news.

I’ve never worn an Apple Watch but today’s announcements have made me seriously consider getting one – they are that good.

The naming convention is as annoying as I thought but the price points seem pretty aggressive.

I love these tips because they are more of the compositional and creative variety rather than the strictly technical. You photographers who live on the east coast of the US and Canada are really lucky this time of year.

Watch the video on this story. This incident yesterday is all the motorcycling racing world is talking about today. It was an incredibly dangerous stunt by a rider who has done dangerous things to other riders in the past and has been fired from other teams. Unfortunately, Race Direction only gave Fenati a two-race ban but he has since been fired from the Marinelli team and has lost his job with another team for next year. I predict he won’t race at this level ever again.

Open Culture: Not every record yields gold when played backwards or spun more slowly than recommended, but a 45 of Parton’s 1973 hit “Jolene” played at 33RPM not only sounds wonderful, it also manages to reframe the narrative. In the … Continued

This short piece definitely brings up some good points I hadn’t thought about before.

Dave and I had a great time this week, talking about everything from growing a beard to the rash of Apple Store robberies in the San Francisco Bay Area.

We knew this was coming.

This story doesn’t go the way you think it does.

I don’t use Skype for my podcasts but I know a lot of podcasters do so this may come as welcome news to them and other users of the application.

This AM, I did a full backup of my system (told you I don’t trust these apps) then I ran CleanMyMac X. It solved the problem immediately as well as doing all the other cool things CleanMyMac does.

I bet the vast majority of people have no idea what magnetic tape storage is but that the vast majority of The Loop readership not only knows but has used it in the past and maybe still does.

Shut up, Warren. I can barely afford an iPhone as it is.

This is one of those things where your initial reaction is, “WTF? That can’t be a good thing!”

On Thursday, Apple announced the date for its special event and now they have released the web page where those of us not lucky enough to get press invites and be in attendance can watch the livestream.
