Slightly disturbing Top Picks list in the Apple Books store. Let's hope that it at least is some heavily annotated and footnoted critical edition. Hmm, at €0.99, maybe not, probably just the original in am equally old translation, which now is out of copyright? (And no, I am not going to download a sample to check, thus increasing its visibility even more.) Seriously, what the actual fuck, Apple
I wonder if this Top Picks list is country-specific, in which case I must add: What the actual fuck, Finland?

New home accessories from Apple: Allegedly postponed to autumn
For several years now, Apple has been working internally on a kind of "HomePad". For strategic and economic reasons, it seems to be taking even longer.
#Apple #Entertainment #HomeKit #AppleHomepod #Mobiles #SmartHome #news
I vaguely remember something about #Apple several years ago changing from "byte" kb to "human" kb in their system dialogs etc. This was a minor change and may have been good on some level. Mostly ended questions like "why does it say 2 Gig here but only 195943567899 bytes lower down in the same dialog box?"
I never imagined the 1024 thing would work the other way... kilometer = 1024 meters. 😅
For those who aren't computer scientists, here is an explanation from Wikipedia...
"In some areas of information technology, particularly in reference to random-access memory capacity, kilobyte instead often refers to 1024 bytes. This arises from the prevalence of sizes that are powers of two in modern digital memory architectures...
The kibibyte is defined as 1024 bytes, avoiding the ambiguity issues of the kilobyte."
In other words, in #binary we count 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s, 32s, 64s, 128s, 254s, 512s, 1024s, etc.
I totally forgot (if I ever knew) about the #kibibyte!
Neues Home-Zubehör von Apple: Angeblich Verschiebung auf Herbst
Seit mehreren Jahren arbeitet Apple nun schon intern an einer Art „HomePad“. Aus strategischen und wirtschaftlichen Gründen dauert es offenbar noch länger.

Apple iPhone 17e oder iPhone 17
Ab morgen ist das iPhone 17e erhältlich. Vorbestellen kann man es seit letzter Woche. Das iPhone 17 erschien im Herbst. Welches nimmt man?
Das 17e hat, wie auf dem Bild einfach erkennbar, nur eine Hauptkamera. Die Superweitwinkelkamera fehlt. Wo braucht man die? Wenn man Innenaufnahmen macht, bei denen man nicht weit genug zurück gehen kann, um alles ins Bild zu bekommen.

MacBook Neo gefällt vielen. Eigentlich hatte ich vor zu zeigen, dass man deutlich günstiger kommt, wenn man vergleichbare Hardware mit Linux bestückt.
Das scheint aber gar nicht so einfach zu sein. Wenn man die Kriterien Qualität des Bildschirms, geringes Gewicht und lange Akku-Laufzeit nimmt, so gibt es wenig Hardware, die unterhalb von den erwartbaren 650 Euro Straßenpreis angesiedelt ist.
Ein anderes Thema ist, dass ich für ähnliches Geld eine etwas ...
