What. A. Finish. 🔥🔥🔥 #ForThe404

@timrbrady @zollotech Returned, but explains why it didn’t work for me on either machine! 😆 macrumors.com/2024/10/31/app…

@jgreene23 @zollotech I went MX Mini and then MX Mini Mechanical after a decade with the Magic Keyboard, you’re better off!

Well that showed up fast. The new USB-C Magic Keyboard.

@timrbrady @zollotech Yep! Tried it on two different ones (M1 Pro running Sonoma and the other M2 running Sequoia). I saw someone else post about the same issue. Regardless, going to return it because I don’t like typing angle and I’m just too used to my MX Mini. If it gets an update I’ll try again!

@jgreene23 @zollotech Do you have an Apple Silicon based Mac? Believe the Touch ID keyboards require one.

@stephenrobles I look away for 2 seconds… 😆

🔥 New M4 MacBook Pros are LIVE! Base model M4 MBP + M4 Pro and M4 Max models. Pro and Max models come with Thunderbolt 5, have a nano-texture display option, and all models start with 16GB Memory. MacBook Air models (M2 and M3) also now start with 16GB Memory!

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians. I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor. My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California. That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people. Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime. It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand. I want to tune out. But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious. And I will always be an American before I am a Republican. That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious. For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing. The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better. It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed! But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems. It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful. We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger. That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz. Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us. And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. vote.org

@s_carruthtx @stephenrobles @chriswelch Trumpet, so I feel you 😄

As a musician and someone who enjoys reviewing audio gear, I was a hesitant to take the hearing test with AirPods Pro. Turns out, I’m doing ok! Definitely nerve racking to do it like @chriswelch mentioned in his review.

#Seattle #rainbow this evening, perfectly aligned behind #SpaceNeedle.

@stephenrobles This is the first year I opted to go pick it up in store FOR THIS REASON. 😆 I’d be curious to see UPS site traffic on iPhone shipping days 📈 Excited to see your take on it once you get it! You should see how well it reproduces your trumpet playing with the audio modes

Don’t play around with that “by 11:00pm delivery” UPS…may need to track this guy down and get my iPhone 16 📦

What can you expect at this year's Oktane? 🤔 @SCMagazine is breaking it down ➡️ bit.ly/3Xo9tUw #Oktane24

@SnazzyLabs I’ve considered this, but I do the same thing. I get 16 Pro, wife gets “old” 15 Pro, trade in “old old” 14 Pro. I do the Apple Card financing to get the 3% cash back. Does the Upgrade Program allow you to still get that? I saw financing was through Citizens, so I thought not.

I'm moving to the iPhone Upgrade Program, so I need to figure out what to do about my wife's iPhone since she usually gets my hand-me-downs. I thought about getting her the iPhone 16, so I set my iPhone 15 Pro to 60Hz to see if she'd notice. Her first comment: "this is laggy." TL;DR normal people may not know about high-frame rate ProMotion, but they subconsciously sense it. This really better be the last iPhone stuck at 60Hz cause it's making for a legitimately worse user experience.

📣 We are thrilled to be named one of @FortuneMagazine's 2024 Best Workplaces in Technology! bit.ly/3XFghys

@stephenrobles Wow. Haven’t had that work since Dec 2022, but seeing my @dbrand order in there now!

Starting to see package tracking in the Wallet app! Didn’t add these, I assume it’s from using Pay

@tldtoday I’d be interested if you could then import that into GarageBand or Logic Pro as separate tracks

Multi track voice memos are you KIDDING ME

@BasicAppleGuy Need it also removed from their desktop accessories and then I THINK that’s it?

No More Lightning in the AirPods Lineup! 🙌 #AppleEvent

@SnazzyLabs Congratulations Quinn and family!!

you guys im gonna be a dad

@MKBHD My son just started his first season of Ultimate. What advice would you give him?

You know what I haven't done in a while? A Q&A video. Ask me anything here about gadgets, videos, YouTube, ultimate frisbee, etc and I'll pick the best ones to answer in a video! #AskMKBHD

@SnazzyLabs @mudkip420swag I second this. I use a 12.9” M1 iPad Pro and my son an older 11” iPad Pro. Every time I pick his up to do something I think, “This just feels right.”

@mudkip420swag I think so, yeah.

It’s been 3 months and I’m still using my 11” iPad Pro as my computer away from the office. My MacBook hasn’t been charged in over a month and a half. ….guys I think I’m doing it. (with the help of our home iMac occasionally)
