In an unsigned post on Apple Newsroom, Apple has poured out its heart about the EU’s Digital Markets Act: It’s been more than a year since the Digital Markets Act was implemented. Over that time, it’s become clear that the DMA is leading to a worse experience for Apple users in the EU. It’s exposing them to new risks, and disrupting the simple, seamless way their Apple products work together. And as new technologies come out, our European users’ Apple products will only fall further...| Six Colors
Vision Pro goes to the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall this fall. Apple has announced another round of Immersive films for the Vision Pro, including Monday’s premiere of “Tour De Force” from CANAL+ and MotoGP. “Tour De Force” is a half-hour film about French motorcycle racer Johann Zarco competing for a historic win at the French Grand Prix at Le Mans. It was announced back in June and is the first film shot with Blackmagic’s new URSA Cine Immersive camera, which lets companies...| Six Colors
E-reader accessibility is anything but consistent. You might find a font size adjustment, but no high-contrast or dark mode settings. And screen readers, where they exist, don’t rival those available for computers and smartphones. Even where devices offer these features, many books don’t fully take advantage of them. Michael Kozlowski of Good e-Reader says Amazon is beefing up its accessible offerings, including accessibility information on book pages and software enhancements: Kindle Ass...| Six Colors

What kind of worldview or religious orientation does it take to make an entire planet uninhabitable? While many think it is our dependence on fossil fuels and the population explosion that has brought us to this point of human destruction, our contention is that these problems have religious foundations which were created and continue to be used by empires as a means to hold dominion over people and the Earth. Opposition to this path of selfdestruction is something Indigenous Peoples have bee...| Doctrine of Discovery Project

Cory Doctorow wrote a column for Locus about the exact difference between exciting AI stories and AI horror stories: I was writing an article and I wanted to cite something I’d heard an expert say on a podcast. I couldn’t remember which expert, nor even which podcast. So I downloaded Whisper, threw 30 or 40 hours’ worth of podcasts I’d recently listened to at it, and then, a couple hours later, searched the text until I found the episode, along with timecode for the relevant passage. ...| Six Colors
I really enjoyed today’s Stratechery piece by Ben Thompson, which tries to understand how Apple can have an impressive roll-out of some really good new products, and yet it all seems so much quieter than it used to: I have, for the last several years, noted how, from a Stratechery perspective, iPhone launches just aren’t nearly as big of a deal as they were when I first started. Back then I would spend weeks before the event predicting what Apple would announce, and would spend weeks afte...| Six Colors
I found myself thinking about satellite connectivity during today’s Apple event, during which the company announced that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 would include the feature. Back when the feature debuted on the iPhone 14 line, Apple said it would remain free for two years. When that period was up, Apple extended free coverage for another year. Which brings us to this year! Will people have to finally start paying? The Verge’s Jay Peters found the answer: iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 users are ge...| Six Colors
Nicole Mitchell of the Glasgow Times reports about a commercial shoot in late August: Concerns have been raised about “excessive noise” during a recent commercial film shoot.

Before the iPhone, Apple took a shot at making the iPod a device that could do more than just play music. Amongst it: playing games.1 If you find yourself feeling nostalgic for that era, you can now revisit those classic games designed for the iPod—it just takes jumping through a few hoops, as Ars Technica’s Kyle Orland reports: Now that the consolidated clickwheel game collection is complete, though, owners of any iPod 5G+ or iPod Nano 3G+ should be able to sync the complete library to t...| Six Colors
Writing at The Verge (paywalled), Ash Parrish talks to Apple Arcade senior director Alex Rothman about the state of the service. It’s not the most in-depth of interviews, but it’s always interesting when an Apple executive is willing to go on the record. This part in particular jumped out at me: “By no means are we going all into only IP,” Rothman said. “It’s a broad mix, because we have a broad player base.” And while Rothman understands the criticisms Arcade has faced, he says...| Six Colors

Craig Hockenberry of the Iconfactory on what troubles him about Liquid Glass in macOS Tahoe: If you’re someone who’s only using email, a web browser, and some messaging apps to get stuff done, changes to your desktop appearance aren’t going to be disruptive.

John Scalzi: For the new release of the Pixel 10 Pro (and the 10 Pro XL, which is mostly the same phone, just larger), Google has introduced something called the “Pro-Res Zoom,” a process by which, once you zoom in with the camera over about 30x zoom, after you’ve snapped the photo, Google will run it through an “AI” processor, not to bring out the details that are actually there, but to make up details that seem reasonable to assume are there, based on whatever processing algorithm...| Six Colors

The read-it-later service Pocket has shut down, and with it went its integration with Kobo e-readers.

John Voorhees of MacStories has a review of Tot 2.0, the simple Mac/iPhone/iPad/Apple Watch notes app by The Iconfactory: My favorite 2.0 feature is that Tot now supports automatic indenting. If you indent a line using the Tab key, the next line will begin at the same indentation level when you hit Return. That makes creating hierarchical lists a lot faster than before. My only quibble with the feature is that if you’re making a bulleted list, to indent a line, you need to first back up and...| Six Colors
John McCoy (host of the Sophomore Lit podcast on The Incomparable!) used the recent kerfuffle over the Cracker Barrel rebranding (if you don’t know, he covered it in his post) to discuss a trend in corporate branding: Just because I doubt that these choices were motivated by politics doesn’t mean the detractors don’t have a point: something basic is being lost here.

Fantastic article by Lucasfilm historian, the appropriately named Lucas O.
