While the Logitech MX Master 3 is a terrific mouse for the Mac, reports claiming that Apple CEO Tim Cook prefers that mouse over the Magic Mouse are false.
The Wall Street Journal last month published an interview with Cook, in which he said he uses every Apple product every day. Soon after, The Verge's Wes Davis attempted to replicate using every Apple product in a single day. During that...

The iOS 18.1.1, iPadOS 18.1.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 updates that Apple released today address JavaScriptCore and WebKit vulnerabilities that Apple says have been actively exploited on some devices.
With the JavaScriptCore vulnerability, processing maliciously crafted web content could lead to arbitrary code execution. The WebKit vulnerability had the same issue with maliciously crafted...
The Beats Fit Pro is actually a very underrated set of earbuds. If you don't need the cachet of the AirPods Pro, they're a great deal.
Yup. I absolutely love my BFP. Although I may quibble that they're "underrated" because they are pretty widely praised by their users. But I totally get what you're saying.
Also, anyone looking for this on Amazon Canada be careful - the discounts for the various Beats products all appear to be "buy used" and not new.
If Dre and Jimmy aren’t involved anymore what’s even the point of Beats still being a thing? I haven’t seen any in the wild in a long time. At one point they were everywhere. It’s another brand that Apple bought and made boring. The colors are bland. The product cycles are dragged out. Perfect opportunity to make some really cool headphones aimed at basement producers and people that love specific music. Instead they just are milking the brand until it’s dead and they have converted everyone to AirPods. Such a waste of a brand that had bigger potential. Why go to the trouble of keeping it around only to let it stagnate? It’s really a shame.
