After a visit to Jasonβs backyard, we discuss OpenAIβs response to Appleβs lawsuit, the future of Appleβs wearable line, the return of βTed Lasso,β and some starters for Spider-Man.
Our favorite ways to share data between devices, what weβd like to see iOS on next after PontoonPlay, whether Private Relay concerns us, and any βdeadβ media formats we still enjoy.
Moltz has a can-do attitude but itβs Lex and Dan who get the questions about actually doing things.
Dan Moren joins the Upgrade program to discuss the new Apple Upgrade program, along with Appleβs financial results, the approach of Appleβs new home strategy, and the perfect phone for iPhone 13 mini fans.
Ted Lassoβs return and Apple TV recommendations, a year of Apple Journal on Mac, our tech cleaning and maintenance habits, and old technologies weβve fired up just to learn or relive.
Moltz is tired of renting and Lex must be tired of walking.
Itβs a Summer of Fun takeover! Jason asks Myke about the state of his current workflows, and we both highlight our current Macs and current favorite Mac utilities.
How much waterproofing matters in our tech and our riskiest water moments, the last time we changed our minds about a technology, how we buy our phones and thoughts on upgrade programs, and the recent tech purchases we feel guilty about.
Dan starts drinking early, James gets bad vibes and Moltz screams for ice cream.
While OpenAI readies a familar-sounding smart speaker, Jason and Myke break down the public betas for macOS, iOS, and watchOS, including Siri AI and new Photos features.
Appleβs public betas, how we read for pleasure, whether we have multicolored smart lighting, and digital disaster preparedness.
Guy meets someone in the woods, Moltz makes a proposal and Dan finds books frustrating.
Inside Appleβs OpenAI lawsuit: How do trade secrets conflict with expert knowlege, was there a concerted effort to steal secret documents to kickstart OpenAI hardware, and how does Appleβs own vulnerability inform the whole situation?
Physical vs. digital media and how we organize it, our system for the digital βdeal with it laterβ pile, what we do with old hardware, and iPhone ergonomics.
This week Lex has audio issues, Dan wants to unload some old hardware and Moltz is tired of fireworks.
Apple seeks RAM in all the wrong places, Jason has two tangents about FileMaker, and we deal with a large load of somewhat puzzling rumors and legal cases.
Appleβs price hikes and our buying plans, our beta OS strategies, dealing with subscriptions, and Metaβs new glasses fees.
Apple hikes prices, Dan goes down a rabbit hole, Moltz is holding confessional and Lex rightfully self-promotes.
Apple raised prices! Is this a shocking move, or were Apple products just sneakily affordable before? (And can it be both?) We also parse Mark Gurmanβs reports on Apple skipping over may M6 chips to go directly to M7.
The Apple II makes its public debut at a landmark event in the history of personal computers, and Steve Jobs truly comes into his own.
