This is a concern not just for non-US citizens but also for US citzens arriving back into the country. Know your rights and know what to do and what not to do.

I ended up creating 30 septendecillion paper clips. The game is best described as “a little odd” but definitely addictive for me.

The reports of the power of this iMac make it not only droolworthy (I wish I could justify getting one) but it gets me thinking – how incredible will the promised 2018 Mac Pro be?

Rene Ritchie joins me this week to talk about a variety of topics including iPhone sales this quarter, reports on television shows that Apple wants to produce, and Apple’s relationship with the FBI, among other things.

Good to see these bonuses are also being given out to retail and part-time employees.

This is an interesting decision by BMW. Their logic seems solid but many people are unhappy about the subscription. I’ll never buy a BMW so I don’t have a dog in this hunt but if successful, you can bet this will move downmarket to other manufacturers.

During my recent trip to Australia, my workflow was blown up by a busted MacBook Air screen so I had to jury-rig a solution that, in some ways, mirrored not only the solutions found in this piece but the frustrations as well.

Most of us have seen and laughed at this grainy video but I had no idea it was staged.

Ten years ago today, I was in the audience when Jobs introduced the Air. I was skeptical at the time (the work I was doing “required” the power of a full-sized laptop. At the time, I was lugging around a 17″ MacBook Pro) but now I love my Air, especially when I travel.

One of the best music documentaries I’ve ever seen is “It Might Get Loud” – Jimmy Page, Jack White, and The Edge just sitting around, talking about playing guitar – and this segment of Page talking about one of the most distinctive riffs in music is a great example of it.

Pencils are one of those things few of us give any thought to – or, for that matter, use much any more – but this glorious photo essay will definitely get you thinking about the “lowly” pencil.

I bet a lot of people in his industry do similar things, especially for blockbusters.

At what point is it just Apple trying to protect its customers from nefarious forces that, sadly nowadays, include governments?

I’ve always been a fan of Matias keyboards.

Good news for Apple. But – what took him so long? The initial Billboard rumor was five days ago.

Anyone shedding a tear for advertising companies, who for years ignored users’ requests for less intrusive advertising, suddenly crying poverty over Apple’s efforts to offer that protection to their users?

I don’t by the full doom and gloom of the article but an overreliance on smartphones in any number of ways is definitely something to be watchful of.

Ignoring the marketing speak in this press release, the bottom line – that Powermat is going with the Qi standard – is good for consumers. It means a less confusing marketplace.

This is a wonderfully geeky examination of the iPhone X Home Indicator and how it dynamically changes color. I still hate it though.

This is a well-written explainer on what happens with Meltdown. Even I understood it. And I never say this but – read the comments as well.

These aren’t far-fetched expectations. After all, their four highlights have been the star of the show for many years now.

This vulnerability is so widespread it’s important for those of us who support various users to know as much as we can about it and what vendors and companies are doing to mitigate the damage.

This is one of those photos so improbable, you immediately think it’s fake. Reading the story about the amazing shot and you realize, faking it would have been easier.

I’m not a huge fan of audio books but I know I’ll be listening to the Asimov’s “Nightfall” and “The Foundation Trilogy” on my next 24-hour flight to Australia.

Want to know what we Canadians like up here in the Great White North?

I’m a “Best of…” list addict. Apple has several bits of kit on this list and I’m sure we’ll see them on many more before the end of the year.

These are all beautiful images (even if many are staged and/or heavily Photoshopped) and some of them are utterly spectacular, particularly for me #9, #8, and #1.

“If you’re still judging Apple’s original video content strategy on the basis of Carpool Karaoke and Planet of the Apps, you’re way wide of the mark at this point.”
