Apple recently announced a new slate of Macs with M4 chips and I am going over my initial thoughts on all of the hardware

Mastodon has recently added a feature called “author attributions” and here’s a quick guide on what they are and how they’re used

Apple’s new Image Playground app was made available in the latest round of betas for iPadOS and iOS 18.2 as well as macOS 15.2 last week and I’ve (finally) got access to play around with it a bit.

Over the weekend I got the chance to check out all of the new hardware that was announced at Apple’s “It’s Glowtime” event. I figured I would just write down some thoughts and ideas I had about the different products here, as some of them are things that I haven’t heard a ton of other people saying.

Today was Apple’s “It’s Glowtime” event where they unveiled the latest set of their core products: Apple Watch, AirPods, and…

Sorry, “Core Ultra 200V” as Intel is calling it. Anyway, these chips are seemingly Intel’s “thin and light” chips and not for their larger, more powerful applications, as evidenced by the fact that you’re limited to 8 cores and 32GB of RAM. There are people out there who really think that Intel’s got something here, and it would seem that they’re decently right. It’s refreshing to see at least something interesting from Intel since Apple broke up with them and started releasing the Apple Silicon chips, but I think Intel is simultaneously shooting themselves in the foot with this release.

I first got my 15″ MacBook Air M2 about a year ago so I figured I would give you my thoughts on the laptop after 1 year of use from everything to being a full time student to creative tasks to full-scale development.

So I don’t really have a set plan for this post, I’ve usually at least got some notes that I like to go off when writing these articles, but this one is going to be off the cuff. For this post I want to talk about this concept of a “digital home” that I’ve been thinking about for a while.

Apple originally released their Sports app back in February of 2024 after it had been rumored a bit, but there was no real enthusiasm behind it. Safe to say this app came out to a rather…confused audience. Nobody was really sure why the app was created; it kinda took some stuff out of the News and TV apps, but also not really.

So I’ve never been very interested in Android as a platform (this may not surprise many of you). Honestly I find this rather odd, because I really like to have a hand in as many platforms as possible (I have a Mac, an iPad, a Windows PC, and a Linux machine (Pop!_OS, of course)). I also have an Xbox (no Playstation, though). The point being: I like to try out a ton of different tech, but I haven’t been as interested in Android as a platform personally.
