Had first LASIK appointment today to determine eligibility. I’m eligible, but still on the fence. Has anyone gotten LASIK and had regrets or complications? Did your up close vision suffer as a result? Really want this, but nervous about it. 🫣
Today is the most anticipated Apple event in recent memory for me. As a Mac person through and through, I could not be more excited. For me the Mac is my favorite Apple product line by far.

Some bittersweet personal news: Today is my last day at
@9to5mac
. I've decided to launch a solo brand, Cellular, which will be focused on tech including Apple (duh!), Tesla, and technology within that orbit. You can subscribe here:
More details to come!
The iPhone X is the best iPhone, and thus, best smartphone ever. Come at me. You can nitpick anything, but at the end of the day, you know it’s the best. Review coming soon.
It’s been 48 hours of Apple Watch Ultra usage, and I still have 17% battery. The last time it was fully charged was just before 6:00pm on Saturday. I’ve used the watch a lot during that time for music, apps, sleep tracking, even YouTube. No Low Power Mode either. I’m impressed.
My very first video for Cellular is now live. Thought it was only right to make an iOS 16 walkthrough first. Please share/retweet if you feel up to doing so. ~350 features and changes with handy timestamps. Thanks for your support!
I’d take a cybertruck any day over the same ol’ same ol’ tired cookie cutter designs we’ve had since I don’t know when. Yeah, it’s not entering any beauty pageants, but it’s a...truck. Anyway, this is exactly the reaction that Tesla wants. The more polarizing the better 🤷♂️
Shout out to all of the Apple silicon Mac reviewers that have struggled all weekend to restrain themselves from waxing about the performance of the Apple M1 publicly, especially those that are like 😯 about Final Cut Pro. Soon. 😂
Agree with
@SnazzyQ
’s take on these DRM annoyances. This probably isn’t something that affects most people [read: those smart enough to not upgrade with every new hardware release], but it’s still super-annoying and antiquated.
Shoutout to the Final Cut Pro X team at Apple. This latest version is the most rock-solid release in years. It’s so fast and stable, and the constant crashing that I've been complaining about when wokring with audio has ceased. Thank you!
Apple wants $279 to replace my bricked, out-of-warranty HomePod. Tough pill to swallow for a device that’s just sat in the same spot, untouched, for nearly five years. Mulling it over because it sounds so much better than the HomePod mini.
iOS 13 is a big leap forward for mobile computing. Some great new advancements found in here. Had fun making this. Thanks to all who watch and subscribe. 😊
It’s been months, and every time I click “System Settings” in macOS I just wish it looked and worked like the old System Preferences. Is it just me who still feels this way? Rarely has it been this hard to adapt to a change…
Been an insane couple of weeks, but I think I might publish my first video for Cellular tomorrow. 🤷🏽♂️ better late than never. 😅 ready to get this thing going. Have a good night everyone.
After finally spending time with both the iPhone 14 Pro Max (Deep Purple) and iPhone 14 Pro (Space Black), I think that the Space Black 14 Pro is the best looking iPhone of all time imo, even besting the previous best black iPhone 5, and original iPhone 2G.
Just hit a new milestone. Was going to dismiss this, given the small number, but then I started thinking, that’s *still* a lot of people that agreed to watch and listen to me ramble, sometimes incoherently 🤪😁 - subscribe here:
I’ll never understand why people put those little things on the back of their phones to help facilitate grip. I don’t care how useful they are; looks terrible. Seeing a _ton_ of these things. 😐
This is amazing.
@affinitybyserif
apps (Photo and Designer) are by far two of my most used apps — now we have an InDesign alternative. No subscription necessary. 👍🏽 An iPad version probably isn’t far behind.
Mac Studio finally arrived! First impression: it’s not very sleek or pretty, which is odd for an Apple product…but this is what we’ve been asking for, right? 🤷♂️ I have a lot of thoughts about this…
I like the return of the battery percentage in beta 5, but I wish it was designed in such a way that it retained the visual interpretation along with the numerical value. Seems like I have full battery even though number says otherwise. Might be hard to pull off legibly, though.

Definitely the best, worst mouse ever. As bad as it is ergonomically, and as nonsensical as the Lightning port placement is, I can never go back. The gestures are just *too* good.
