ICYMI: My Apple Vision Pro review
It’s my longest published article *ever.*
I’m convinced that spatial computing is the future, but Apple Vision Pro isn’t the present. There are too many faults, and I’m not giving Apple any slack.
The state of college basketball is sad.
Players like Seton Hall’s Dre Davis and Indiana State’s Robbie Avila become loved by fan bases and schools, only to leave for their own prospects after a season or two.
The best part of the college game is dead.
REPORT: Indiana State forward Robbie Avila will enter the NCAA Transfer Portal, per

The All-MVC 1st Teamer averaged 17.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game this season.

Still not ready to admit you guys jumped the gun on trashing M1?
I love that you guys are unbiased when you review Apple, but the whole “Macs are iPhones now” bit really underscores the progress that has been made compared to old Intel chips.
Since my offhand tweet in a Starbucks blew up, I’ll add one last thing:
I don’t hate the players, I hate the game. This is on the NCAA and everyone involved in regulating NIL and the portal, it is NOT on the student athletes.
I can finally tweet this: St. John’s made a ton of late-game mistakes against Providence.
Any

Wow.
And Dre Davis’ daughter should not be relevant here. Not if the goal is to be a STUDENT athlete.
If the goal is to make as much money as possible to support your family, that’s the problem. Everyone has a family. But this was once a college sport, not a professional one.

I know people will disagree with me, but I STILL don’t feel the need to upgrade from my 2018 12.9” iPad Pro. If I could just get the new Magic Keyboard, I’d be set
@rich_mac10
They are STUDENT athletes. This is not a professional sport. The goal was never to make money or make this a career. Your tweet is exactly the problem.

The Pfizer vaccine is made in collaboration with BioNTech. Believed that biontech was more involved with the development, Pfizer has the infrastructure and resources for mass production.
It’s a 2am surprise: The Tortured Poets Department is a secret DOUBLE album. ✌️ I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of TTPD: The Anthology. 15 extra songs. And now the story isn’t mine

I mean, Apple isn’t the one doing it. Samsung Display and LG Display are the ones actually manufacturing the tandem OLED panels.
So, that argument doesn’t really make sense. But keep believing that tandem OLED and 1600-nit peak brightness is the same as a Tab S7+.

And what a lot of people don’t realize is that review samples can be SUCH a burden. Receiving them, storing them, trying to send them back — or not knowing what to do with them if companies don’t even want them back.
“Free stuff” is such a reduction of the job.
@MaxWinebach
People buy expensive watches for looks. People buy smartwatches for functionality.
For me, the Apple Watch Ultra is the intersection of those two ideas.

8 Gen 3 above M2? What is being smoked over there 🤣
Maybe, and I mean MAYBE, the Snapdragon X Elite can beat M2. Benchmarks so far have been on reference devices and not actual products.
And I think people are massively underestimating the R1 chip.

I think you were literally born yesterday. deGrom won a ROY award and a CY Young award during pitiful losing seasons for the Mets. (2014,2018) Severino has a playoff team every year and still can’t pitch at a high level.

It’s not their problem, because it’s the burden of companies to NOT false advertise. Not the burden of consumers to see through false or misleading marketing schemes.
We have the

St. John’s Rick Pitino didn’t shy away from his plans for the roster. In two words: complete overhaul.
It’s a strategy that drew criticism when used at Colorado by Deion Sanders.

The discourse about using it in public (outside of the memes) is kinda wild.
Isn't that the point? Unlimited monitors in places you could never have them?
@jmwilt21
MKBHD’s take, that is. Samsung basically gave the S24 series a software update and OnePlus gave the 12 multiple hardware upgrades, so his logic doesn’t make sense.

Writing something like "according to an Apple spokesperson with knowledge of the situation" can make legit information seem speculative just because there's no name attached ... It disservices all involved except the corporation.
This is such a strange era from Apple. This might be a hot take, but I almost feel like it devalues the brand.
Before, Apple was the company that didn't need to do all this stuff to get attention. That's what made them Apple.
@RjeyTech
Crazy to think that we should pretend the iPhone 15 Pro Max doesn’t exist for four months.
We should (and do) compare the iPhone 15 Pro Max to the Samsung S23 Ultra AND S24 Ultra.
I think we should note release dates and that a new Samsung is coming, but that’s it.

I think you'll notice it, if:
-You don't use a case
-You use your phone heavily while charging
-You use maximum brightness
I'd guess that it's media folk who check all of these boxes more than the average consumer. But to say it's clickbait is unfair imo.

Pixel Tablet is nice just a little overpriced if you don’t happen to need a smart home hub AND a tablet.
I don’t think the $400 standalone version should be considered at all (unless you get a sweet trade in deal like you did)

She’s a terrible announcer and I don’t know how much her expertise would aid in “player evaluation”. It’s not sexism, it’s poor qualifications
Anyone who watches the Divine Providence documentary and still thinks that the Ed Cooley coaching change was just typical CBB business has absolutely no idea what they're talking about.

I don’t know what service you’re using, but I do (valid) chargebacks pretty frequently and have never even sniffed a ban.
This is exactly what they’re for: protection when you don’t get the product/service/experience you paid for
Good job

. Say what you want about the company, I've never been denied a refund or replacement, even out of warranty.
They continue to go above and beyond for support.

I’ve been daily-driving the M2 MacBook Air 13 since day one. Also have a 15-inch review unit. AMA.
Form factor is unmatched. Wish it had ports on both sides. Could use an SD card slot. I can stress it out by doing a lot of photo editing / SSD read and writing quickly.
@MaxWinebach
That 3x ultra wideband range is probably the most low-key game changer of them all. People who own AirTags know what that means for Precision Finding.
@SnazzyQ
It sucks it was only on the first one (or two, idek) because I had the S0 myself and it’s trash. I feel like a 17k S6 is wayyyyy more justifiable
