This week’s episode of Connected got weird:
The guys try AltStore and the Delta game emulator live on the show before discussing reviews of the Humane AI Pin and the response to those reviews. Then they judge their picks in the first-ever scoring of the EUies.
Lee Garret is the new owner of ScreenCastsOnline. He joins Stephen and David to discuss his background in technology, his Apple gear, and how clear communication and processes are key to any successful endeavor.
This week on the show: Myke has a friend, Federico is dreaming of emulation, and I got stuck in traffic.
This week on Mac Power Users, David and I revisit Freeform and discuss how it’s improved since its launch and what Apple could do next with the application. We also share how they use the app and how it shines in visionOS.
This week on the world’s greatest podcast:
While waiting for new iPads and Apple’s AI efforts to materialize, Stephen, Myke, and Federico have been changed by spatial Personas.
This week on the podcast, I walk David through the ins and outs of collecting old Apple gear, and we take the wraps off an MPU redesign.
This episode was finally enough to get me to finish documenting my collection. You can check out the full inventory via this Google Sheet.
Let’s talk about the MPU redesign. First up is our new artwork, which you can see here, along with its predecessors:
As you can see, we’ve kept the battery, but modernized it, and have changed the main show color to orange, a personal favorite of both of us. The MPU green is still the main color for the longer, ad-free version, however.
To go along with the new look, we have new music, put together by our editor, Jim Metzendorf. I am in love with the new intro music:
Federico keeps refreshing Apple Newsroom, Myke is ready to federate, and Stephen goes down quite the rabbit hole.
David Metzger is a composer, arranger, and orchestrator with a celebrated career that has earned him Academy, Grammy, and Tony Awards. On MPU this week, he joined us to talk about how the music for some of the most beloved films and shows of our time is made.
Myke surprises his co-hosts, Federico finished the alphabet, and Stephen thought he had an exciting project on his hands.
This week on Mac Power Users, David Sparks and I offer advice on how to best care for Macs, iPhones, iPads, and more, from cleaning to battery management and beyond. Then, the guys reflect on recent news, including the new MacBook Air and the death of the company’s car project.
The guys cover what’s new in Apple’s DMA response and make some picks about what could come next. Then, they provide updates on their Apple Vision Pro experiences.
Federico cut a MacBook Air in half and joined it to an iPad with magnets and software. Myke and Stephen have questions.
