hmm interesting, while streaming music from my mac to airpods, there was a brief moment where the audio from my mac came through my iphone speaker and even paused when i hit my mac's play/pause keyboard button.

i wonder if my mac's sending audio through my phone and then to my airpods? would that even make sense?

everything about the airpods doesn't make sense, so I don't know why this would make any less sense

I have a 1.5 year old 6 that is a bit beat up and starting to have lightning port issues, but is still needs suiting.
In the true spirit of excessive American consumerism should I use my upgrade to get a
6s (and possibly die in a battery explosion)
or a
7 (and loose a hole I rarely use anyways)?

johnny fireball has this message that timb posted to apples internal disccusion forums

timb posted:

The desktop is very strategic for us. It’s unique compared to the notebook because you can pack a lot more performance in a desktop — the largest screens, the most memory and storage, a greater variety of I/O, and fastest performance. So there are many different reasons why desktops are really important, and in some cases critical, to people.

The current generation iMac is the best desktop we have ever made and its beautiful Retina 5K display is the best desktop display in the world.

Some folks in the media have raised the question about whether we’re committed to desktops. If there’s any doubt about that with our teams, let me be very clear: we have great desktops in our roadmap. Nobody should worry about that.
anyone who follows sports knows what it means when the team president gives an unprompted little speech in defense of a beleaguered head coach or gm and saying that he has their full confidence

in other words: macs are still headed for that sunset/maintenance/legacy retirement home
