What Are Accessibility Permissions All About?
Mac apps often request some kind of “permissions” during their installation. Since Apple expanded macOS Mojave’s Security and Privacy permissions, requests have only increased. If we could track the most frequently requested permission, it would have to be Accessibility access. The name of the permission seems to imply that the permission should be used for…

Audible Accessories: Jaybird Endorphin Rush Headphones
My son turned 5 months old the other day, and with it came an exciting new discovery: Yelling. That’s right, he’s now figured out how to yell, and he loves to do it. Now I work at home with my wife, with me doing the working while she does a little work and a lot…
Flash, the iPhone and the Lenovo Skylight
I spoke a little bit on Friday about the whole Flash and Apple saga, and for the most part, that’s where I was going to leave things until I read an article on Gizmodo. The article is about the rise and fall of the Smartbook, which, for those of you who didn’t know, is part…

When Apple introduced the iPhone 6, there was something a little peculiar about it. Unlike the previous iterations of the iPhone, the 32GB option was no longer available.

Apple’s announcement earlier this year of the iPad Pro, a new larger iPad that works much more like a two-in-one than a tablet, was met with cheers as well as its fair share of jeers.

I’m on my way to Austin for a new iPhone
At&t was no help, but Apple was much better. I’m on my way to the closest Apple store in Austin. It’s a 4 hour round trip drive, but I should have a new iPhone before the end of the day.
Xtreme Mac Luna – Review
There are dozens, if not hundreds, of iPod dock equipped radios and alarm clocks. I look at a lot of them here, but not everything gets reviewed, primarily because a good portion of them aren’t worth writing about. The primary thing that these companies seem to forget when they construct these iPod playing monstrosities, is…

Apple Travel+: Imagining Travel Posters As If They Were Apple Ads
Apple’s advertisement posters are legendary and instantly recognisable – clean, easy to read, thought-provoking. They’re a major part of why Apple products have become so beloved, so it’s only natural that they’ll continue to play an important role as the company seeks to expand its reach and influence. Recently, Apple unveiled a new streaming TV…
