I think you’re (intentionally or otherwise) mistaken about Apple and privacy. E2E encryption and key data being stored only on device, it’s the best privacy story around. They don’t make money by selling you or your data - they make money selling hardware to you.

I’m not going to use their terrible web site, nor the abomination that AlienBlue got mangled into as the official app, so…

I’ve not used it this past week, and will wait until the official cutoff date to see if my aging 3rd party app of choice stops working. If it does, that’s it, I guess… they made the decision for me.

Is this what is called micro-clover, or does the picture just make it look like that in a tilt-shift kind of way?

Too nutty for me - gets in the way of coffee flavor, IMO.

It is BONKERS to me that I get up-charged $1 to have 6oz. of steamed oat milk in my coffee instead of cow’s milk. Carbon footprint of oat milk is tiny by comparison, cost of production is lower, WTF?

I’m going to have to get one.

12 cameras, LiDAR, 6 microphones, dual 4K+ monitors, an M2 processor, spatial audio.

If anything is going to redefine what AR/VR is, it’s this device.

Yes, they’ll have a $1500 model a couple years later, but understanding the possibilities of an entirely new computing paradigm, and getting in on the ground floor is going to be huge.

Pretty amazing tech, now that it’s been shown. I’m sure it will be a 3-5 year arc, where the price goes from $3500 down to $1500.

IPhones are in the fall. Like clockwork.
