Apple’s Tim Cook Shares Community Letter After Announcing Plans to Step Down as CEO

Published by skeptic

Current Apple CEO Tim Cook is set to leave his role on September 1, 2026, and as he prepares to step down as CEO, he has written a letter addressed to the Apple community. Cook said that he starts his day reading notes from Apple users all over the world, which fills him with an indescribable gratitude. According to Cook, Ternus is the perfect person to take over as Apple’s CEO. To the Apple community: For the past 15 years I’ve started just about every morning the same way. I open my email and I read notes I received the day before from Apple’s users all over the world. You share little pieces of your lives with me and tell me things you want me to know about how Apple has touched you. About the moment your mom was saved by her Apple Watch. About the perfect selfie you captured at the summit of a mountain that seemed impossible to climb. You thank me for the ways Mac has changed what you can do at …

Cuba begins prisoner release after announcing more than 2,000 pardoned

Cuba begins prisoner release after announcing more than 2,000 pardoned

Published by Sam Flores

Cuban authorities began to free prisoners on Friday after announcing it would pardon 2,010 inmates, the second release in less than a month as it faces heightened US pressure. More than 20 inmates came out of La Lima penitentiary in east Havana, holding their release papers, crying and hugging relatives who had been waiting for them all morning, AFP journalists said. “Thank you for this opportunity that they gave us,” said Albis Gainza, 46, who had served half of a six-year sentence for robbery. He said he could not sleep after learning he would be released. “This needs to keep going … (and) more are released,” Gainza told AFP. The Cuban government announced late Thursday that it would pardon 2,010 prisoners as a “humanitarian and sovereign gesture” to mark Holy Week. It did not link it to talks with the United States, but the move came days after US President Donald Trump eased a de facto oil blockade of Cuba by allowing a Russian tanker to deliver crude to the fuel-starved island.

HBO Max’s Emmy-winning medical drama, about a team of emergency room doctors and nurses at a Pittsburgh hospital, is nearing the end of its 15-episode second season. Ahead of the season finale, out April 16, Variety broke the news that Supriya Ganesh, who has played senior resident Dr. Samira Mohan since season one, will not be returning for the new season, expected to premiere in January 2027. As The Independent understands, her exit was solely a story-driven decision. Given that Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center is a teaching hospital, it is normal for the establishment to have a revolving door of staff. Dr. Mohan’s departure will not come as a complete surprise to viewers, as she’s spent much of season two …

The 44-year-old actor made headlines when she stepped out at The Fashion Awards last December in a sheer white Givenchy gown to announce the news that she was expecting with her second child with her 29-year-old partner, Oli Green. “I didn’t realise it would be quite that see-through in the camera lights,” the star told The Telegraph. “I felt confident. I had a press junket the following morning and thought it would be a good way to get the news of my pregnancy out there beforehand,” she said of the decision.

Apple might take a new approach to announcing its next products

Apple might take a new approach to announcing its next products

Published by skeptic

Apple has invited the tech press to a “special Apple experience” on March 4, but it might unfold a bit differently than the company’s standard press event. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that instead of announcing everything at a single keynote, Apple is planning a “three-day flurry of announcements” — presumably announced online, and culminating in the March 4 “experience” that will consist of be three events in New York, London, and Shanghai, where the press will be offered a chance to get hands-on with the upcoming products. Similarly, Daring Fireball’s John Gruber speculated that the experience could be “a hands-on thing with in-person demos.” Apple will reportedly be announcing at least five new products during that time, including a low-cost MacBook. Other reported possibilities: the iPhone 17e, an iPad Air with an M4 chip, a new entry-level iPad, and an upgraded MacBook Air and new MacBook Pro models. Gurman said all of those products are due this spring, but he sounded less certain about which ones will be announced when. Source link

Sir Idris Elba caught speeding on moped a day after announcing Netflix movie about Charles’s charity The King’s Trust | UK News

Published by Daniella Wilson

Actor and scooter enthusiast Sir Idris Elba has been slapped with a fine for going more than 20mph on his moped. Speed cameras clocked the actor, 53, making his way across Chelsea Embankment in central London at 10.12am on 21 June last year. Sir Idris is renowned for his love of mopeds – so much it even made its way into a Taylor Swift song. The US singer sampled the actor saying “We can go driving on my scooter – you know, just riding in London” on her 2019 song ‘London Boy’. Meanwhile film fans will be reminded of Guy Ritchie’s 2008 film Rock’n’Rolla – where Sir Idris’s character has to evade Russian mobsters on a moped. Sir Idris admitted riding the BMW moped but insisted he had not received a fixed penalty fine from the police and was denied a chance to pay it off before appearing in court.

Published by Daniella Wilson

It’s been quite the rollercoaster of a year for the British royal family, with ups and downs at every corner. Perhaps the most shocking moment for the monarchy was the King’s decision to strip his brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, of all of his titles after his connections to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein were placed under the microscope again. There was also a long-awaited reunion between the King and his estranged younger son, Prince Harry, after 19 months. Although any future reconciliation appears uncertain at the moment given the Duke’s UK security dispute. Harry lost an appeal at the High Court to reinstate his police protection in May, but the latest update is that the Home Office has now ordered a threat assessment for the first time since 2020, according to The Sun. There has also been some joyful news this year, with the Princess of Wales confirming she’s in remission from cancer and returning to full-time royal duties. The royals also celebrated new additions to the family with the birth of Princess Beatrice’s second baby, as well …
