How the iPad 9.7″ form factor is still the best all around size.

I wish the native app just allowed for shooting in RAW.

Purpose built, certainly. It might be one hell of an iPad Pro bag.

This is a nice video review of the Tom Bihn Maker’s Bag by Fraser Speirs. I really loved the part showing how he uses the Freudian Slip to hold his iPad Pro. So clever.

This looks like it could be a really neat little Briefcase. Can’t wait to try one out.

Apple created an unequal system for iPhone pre-orders.

I have no clue why anyone would want to own a Samsung phone at this point.

Adblock Plus, one of the web’s most popular ad-blocking services, will soon begin selling its own ads—and taking a little bit of the cut as well. The plus means less ads, but with more special ads.

Oh hey, left hand, nice to see what the hell you are up to finally.

Apple is sneaking in some future changing features and products.

Christina Warren: The process is proving to be a shitshow both for those who bought the device through carriers, and for those who purchased directly from Samsung. And: The situation isn’t any better for customers at other carriers. T-Mobile and AT&T don’t have fresh inventory from Samsung either, which means customers can either wait around […]

I bitched about this on twitter and […]

I’ve started a new newsletter, and it is ad supported. I’d love it if you signed up, it’s a weekly affair. Here’s a taste from this week’s: I wasn’t going to mention all the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Fire Editions, but umm, well it burned a Jeep to the ground (and if the story couldn’t […]

I texted Shawn on Tuesday to see if he wanted to do a special show, and amazingly we both had time to fit it in. We talk about the iPhone 7 stuff, as well as paying for new devices. Shawn also explains math to me. All in all: good times.

This is one of those things you read when you are having a rough day. (Via Kottke)

Rob Rhyne: Finally, the QC35s ship with a travel-friendly hardshell case. Not the whimpy, felt soft case bullshit that B&O ships with $300 headphones. I wish all headphone reviews were like this.

All these people complaining about iPads seem to not know how iOS actually works.

Apple really neglects the hell out of macOS server.

The report also does not consider the belief of some computer specialists about the possibility of a “singularity” that might lead to machines that are more intelligent and possibly threaten humans. How do you not even consider that possibility? See, this is how we go extinct.
