Dear Apple,

It took you 7 years to develop a foldable. According to several industry insiders you were working hard on a creasless inner display, using a liquid metal alloy for the hinge.

So, what the hell is this? What happened to your high ambitions?

I honestly think the iPhone Duo is pretty sleek and sexy. The software experience looks amazing. I don't need a foldable myself, but I can imagine it well sell way.

The most interesting part of the event for me is the A20 Pro SOC and the vapour chamber. The improvements and efficiency is substantial and I am salivating to find out what this means for the performance of the M6 SOC. I hope vapour chambers will eventually be implemented on iPads en Macbook Airs as well.

John Ternus was much more enjoyable as presenter than the ol'Cook, who also seemed like he was always performing enthusiasm that made it feel artificial.

I don't think there will be any suprises with all these leaks months in advance. However I am curious how John Ternus will do in his first event as CEO.

Who else is ready for the #AppleEvent ?

After hearing about LG's snooping around practices and non consensual audio recording it was time for drastic measurements on my LG C5 TV.

@paul actually I'm surprised by the other answer.
Most important is to get your stuff Done. You really can't tell if it's really really done if it's not delivered and you get feedback that it works or fails.
In combination with the fact that unfinished work blocks resources: you have to think/take care of it later, when you don't recall details.
That's the reason why this approach went into #XP and #agile approaches to save costs and risk and get feedback faster.

I am really stoked about this new concept laptop from Lenovo, that uses Frore’s AirJet Mini fanless air-cooling technology.

I'd love to have this technology in the Macbook Air M7/M8 around 2028. Still as sleek and light as the current Air, but with the thermal performance of a Macbook Pro.

Apparently there's currently a batch of bad XTC pills with Trumps head going round in our liberal flat little country, also known as the drug distribution country of the EU.

The alledged pills contain PMMA (para-methoxymethamfetamine) a substance that resembles MDMA effects, but much shorter, which creates a bigger risk for overdosing.

Not only does this Logitech keyboard type smoothly, it also fits perfectly with my desktop black aesthetic and my new 13" iPad Pro M5.

I hope it will give me tremendous inspiration for creating new Ambient tracks.😊

I initially was all hyped up by Nvidia's quarterly figures, but instead of buying lots of shares, I pushed myself towards buying one share to begin with and follow it's course and eventually get a few more when the time is right.

And the biggest announcement of today must be the renewed Apple polishing cloth that can now be had 10$ cheaper.

I better order 5 of them before they're sold out.

I almost got an orgasm when watching the announcement video for the new Mac Studio M5 Ultra. What a speed demon and probably perfect for Local AI and other heavy workstation applications!
