MacBook Neo review: I wish this had an M1 inside
The MacBook Neo is a cool little computer that I like, despite the fact that, on paper, it’s a

The MacBook Neo is worse. We love it.
The MacBook Neo is really something, isn't it? Novelty is a hell of a drug, but I also think there's something to specific products that, despite them clearly not being the best technical option available, still have a draw for some reason. Apple's actually had two examples of this

DLSS 5 looks like ass (and this is coming from a huge DLSS fan)
Cameron Faulkner, Richard Lawler: DLSS 5 looks like a real-time generative AI filter for video games
Nvidia announced DLSS 5 on Monday during its GTC conference, and based on early reactions, it’s going to be a divisive update, with some reactions calling it “slop” that unacceptably alters artistic intent. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang

From the MotionVFX home page today:
We are extremely excited to share that MotionVFX is joining the Apple team to continue to empower creators and editors to do their best work.
I love MotionVFX and have used their plugins for a few years to add a bit of flavor to my videos. Their plugins are
Please review my apps
My apps very rarely prompt you to leave a review on the App Store. Truthfully, it's something that I completely forget to consider when I'm developing an app. I only remember to add it down the road, and as such, my apps don't have a lot of reviews compared

Folding iPhone rumors verses my iPadOS predictions
Mark Gurman had a new report this past week where he suggested that the folding iPhone would allow apps to be displayed side by side on the internal screen, and that iPad apps would not run on the device, although Apple is working to update their apps to have a more iPad-like layout when

I'm trying to let the iPad be its best self
I sometimes feel like I'm a minor villain in the iPad enthusiast world. It probably doesn't help that I'm pretty outspoken for wanting a touch screen tablet-style Mac or that I recently titled a post "Apple will kill iPadOS." But I honestly think that the world

Sam Henri Gold: “This Is Not The Computer For You”
Yes, you will hit the limits of this machine. 8GB of RAM and a phone chip will see to that. But the limits you hit on the Neo are resource limits — memory is finite, silicon has a clock speed, processes cost something. You are learning

I waited on this rumor so long we already know it's wrong
Joe Rossignol: Apple's Upcoming Studio Display 2 Rumored to Have an Unusual Feature
The tipster believes that a 90Hz refresh rate would make sense due to bandwidth considerations. Thunderbolt 5 can support 5K resolution at 120Hz without any compression, but they think Apple likely wants to ensure there will be plenty of remaining

I'd like the less capable, more expensive computer, please
Steve Troughton-Smith on Mastodon:
A $499 MacBook Neo with the brains of a couple-year-old iPhone can run Xcode, Photoshop, Blender, Terminal, and pretty much everything else you can think of, yet your $3,200 iPad Pro, with a desktop-class chip, cannot 😑

Of course it can use pro apps. It’s a computer
When I started doing YouTube in 2020, I was in the middle of my iPad era, and the only Mac in my life was a 2012 Mac mini. I don't remember its exact specs, but suffice to say it positively sucks by 2026 standards. And while it was very slow, it did technically
