This is the last (hopefully) in a long string of awful Fantastic Four movies.

This is a controversial decision but, if it works out the way SmugMug wants it to, it will fundamentally change the kind of site Flickr is and how it is used.

A lot of my fellow Canadians qualify for this class action. You’re not likely to get a lot of money out of it but every little bit helps.

Unless you were involved in the military, I bet the first time most of us heard about callsigns was from the movie Top Gun. We just called them nicknames. I’m lucky – with the last name I have, the only possible nickname/callsign I could have is Kong.

This is brilliant.

There’s a very helpful graphic attached to this post to really give you a good sense of the specs and offerings.

This will be an interesting problem for many of us. I’m in the market for a new device and am torn between these two new offerings. What would push me over the edge to the iPad Pro would be for Adobe to (soon!) announce the full version of Lightroom is available for the iPad Pro, as they announced for Photoshop.

This should come as no surprise to anyone who watched today’s video and no, this is not Apple being “greedy”.

This might be my next laptop if I can get past the lack of ports.

This Mac is mini in size only – everything has been upgraded and updated, including the price.

I so want one of these new iPad Pros.

Being in New York seems to have given the event an extra special energy.

Between Asteroids, Space Invaders, and Defender, I lost a significant portion of my childhood cash to video arcades. And I loved it.

As awful as it is, as much as it may make you want to pull your own ears off, “The Monster Mash” is the quintessential Halloween song.

I knew the folks at MacSpeech and, while they tried to make a go of it as an independent company, they just didn’t have the resources to develop it much further when Nuance came calling. I spoke to MacSpeech about it then and they admitted it was just going to be a matter of time before Nuance killed this product. But it had a good run.

Curation, human or otherwise, is great if you agree with the methods or algorithms of the curator. It can be dangerous otherwise.

As usual, Apple made sure Mann had an iPhone XR to review well before most others. And, unlike his iPhone XS review, I really liked many of the shots in this review. Lots of good tidbits from a photographer’s perspective.

As someone who can’t remember what he had for lunch last week, this “ability” is fascinating to me.

There are some very cool designs here. I hope we hear from Apple why they did it.

I haven’t folded a paper airplane in 30+ years but now that I have a 12-year-old son, I know what we’re going to be doing this weekend.

I don’t know how I feel about Apple bringing back the old rainbow-coloured logo. Make no mistake, I had/have a lot of Apple logo gear including the sweatshirt pictured on the post’s page. But as much as I like the six-coloured logo, it feels like it belongs in the past.

Most of the blame for this issue centered on Apple doing something intentional or because of overly aggressive noise reduction. Turns out, it was just a bug.

These kinds of insanely difficult tests, like this and “The Knowledge” for London taxi drivers, always fascinate me.

I’d noticed the parallel runways before but didn’t realize they sometimes did parallel landings. The runways are about 750 feet apart and the long camera lens compresses the distance.

Bloomberg’s response will likely only be “we stand behind our story” but it’s good to see Cook continuing to pressure them to put up or shut up.

I saw the story last week when it first was reported but hearing it from the little girl herself is wonderful.

The article makes a lot of claims about Lightroom that are inaccurate but it’s still an interesting look at Aperture. And no, it’s not a “surprising story”. It’s a common one at Apple – they will develop cool, interesting tech but then lose interest in it. Sadly, the full story of the development and subsequent abandonment of Aperture will likely never be known.

Gorgeous videos. I don’t know if they will convince anyone to buy but they certainly make me want to go to a store and check them out. I guess that’s half the battle.

Apple has put up a page where you can watch the livestream of the announcements on October 30 at 10 a.m. EDT. You can add a reminder to your Calendar from that page as well.

Video from Banksy. This story continues to be more and more bonkers.
