I'd like to thank @stephenrobles for the fantastic macOS Tahoe video! I was very excited to see exactly how the transcribe audio Shortcuts action works on different devices, and how quick keys work in Spotlight. I also did not know Private Cloud Compute could analyze images as…

Apple Vision Pro users can now magnify or zoom their surroundings up to 10X. I've been using this for 3 months, and it's incredible! Make sure to download #VisionOS26 today, or stop by an Apple Store to try it out.

I have very exciting news! I've created an app today that allows apps that utilize Ollama to work with Apple Intelligence. This is still very much a work in progress so contributions are wanted. I’d like to figure out if Swift Assist can work with this model, so any help would be…

So Borderlands 4 is amazing, but I do wish the line that Echo 4 draws to your next objective could be higher contrast, or be thicker. I also kind of wish quests where you have to look for items would be pointed to more effectively. I have to sometimes wait for the gamne to be at…

So it does not look like I’m getting an iPhone on launch day according to the Apple Store app. I had the app open in less than five minutes from pre-order time and it had slipped to the 25th.
