MacBook Pro With Touch Screen and New Mac Studio Likely ‘Postponed’

MacBook Pro With Touch Screen and New Mac Studio Likely ‘Postponed’

Published by skeptic

The global memory chip shortage may result in the next MacBook Pro and Mac Studio models launching later than expected, according to the latest rumor. Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman has repeatedly stated that 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with a touch screen are slated to launch in late 2026 to early 2027. In his Power On newsletter today, though, he said to be prepared for the laptops to potentially arrive towards the end of that timeframe due to the chip shortage. In other words, early 2027 is now more likely than late 2026. Gurman previously expected a new Mac Studio to launch around the middle of 2026, which pointed towards an announcement around WWDC 2026 in June. However, in his newsletter today, he wrote that sources within Apple believe that the next Mac Studio models will not ship until around October this year as a result of the shortage. Touch-screen support will be part of a major refresh planned for the high-end MacBook Pro models, with other rumored features including M6 Pro and M6 Max …

As conversations around children’s screen time and social media use continue to swirl, it’s perhaps no wonder experts are noticing a trend for “faking” screen time data. UK search interest for ‘fake screen time’ has reached a five-year high, according to Google Keyword Planner data analysed by Bupa UK. In the last year alone, searches rose by 500%. Parents can manage and monitor their children’s screen time to prevent excessive usage. But kids are clearly intent on finding workarounds – from using screen time faker apps, to more elaborate methods that leave even the most tech-savvy parents perplexed. “Can someone help me make a screen time faker?” asked one young person on Reddit, noting their “parents are getting stricter” and they needed to “fake” their usage stats. Some teens are spending up to 14 hours per day on social media …

The Screen Time Maximalists Who Spend an Ungodly Amount of Time on Their Phones

The Screen Time Maximalists Who Spend an Ungodly Amount of Time on Their Phones

Published by skeptic

Morgan Dreiss, a copy editor in Orlando, has severe ADHD that they say requires them to always be “doing at least three things at once.” The result? A daily average screen time of 18 hours and 55 minutes. “I’m reading a book or playing a game pretty much from waking to sleeping,” Dreiss tells WIRED. What they read comes from the library app Libby, so the books count toward overall screen engagement. Dreiss currently keeps their phone’s autolock feature disabled so they can continuously run a mobile game that pays out $35 for every 110 hours logged. (They’ve earned about $16 so far.) For years, studies have brought forth worrying data about the potential negative effects of excessive screen time on both physical and cognitive health. Concerns over the neural development and mental health of young people glued to their phones have led to major legislative and courtroom battles; recently a jury found Meta and YouTube liable for designing their platforms with addictive features. While the question of whether one can be clinically “addicted” to …

Why Marvel’s problems don’t end on screen…

Published by Daniella Wilson

For many people, the flipping pages in Marvel Studios’ opening graphic are the only comic books they’ve ever engaged with. What you probably don’t realise is that Marvel Comics editors have been working tirelessly to change that for nearly two decades – but may actually have done some damage in the process. Ask a regular reader about today’s comic book landscape and you’ll likely get the same response: DC is on a winning streak, Marvel is in a creative slump, and both find themselves dwarfed by the booming popularity of manga. There’s a lot to say about all three topics, but today, we’re focusing on the oft-stated decline of Marvel Comics and its connection to the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s own fading fortunes; both are the wounded victims of their own success. But how did we get here? And more importantly, how do we get back? Let’s reminisce for a moment about a lovely little year called 2012, when the first The Avengers film hit cinemas and surpassed expectations in every conceivable way. The audacious idea …
