Can you use your journalist chops and speak with someone at Apple and find out?

Gurman is no longer credible!

What they goin do bout this?

A map of New York in the early 20th century indicating multiple electric charging stations

Innovation and infrastructure do not always change steadily or together. Students often believe that this 1923 map of Manhattan charging stations for electric vehicles (from "The Edison Company") must be science fiction.

This is just one of the many Macs that appeared on Seinfeld over the years.

Annual morbidity in the 20th century, before and after vaccines:

Measles:

Mumps:

Rubella:

Diphtheria:

Smallpox:

Pretty sure Apple is ready to pivot if they need to.

Pertinent information for South Florida EV owners.

Recent reports may suggest otherwise, but the growth in RV adoption has been encouraging.

Shareholders anticipate the government giving him a free hand to do what he wants safe from regulators.

VW ID.4

I actually really like the way the VW ID.4 drives. It’s very light and responsive feeling, the nose is eager to turn in, and I love that there’s a company offering a single-motor option with some real power. The 282 hp makes this one feel quite gutsy. The driving position is great too.

The Turning Radius is the Best!

Seeing a non-Tesla EV used to be real rare near where I live but today I’ve seen multiple IONIQs and Mach-Es, as well as an ID.4, Kia EV9, and another Lightning. Feels like there’s been a real shift lately.

The Future Is Bleak. The Kia EV9 Proves It Doesn't Have to Be I loaded up a Kia EV9 with friends, drove to the coast, and there, I found hope.

a very Vicki feature: on the bleak future, the uncertain present, and trying to build a world we all want to live in, as seen through the windows of a Kia EV9 www.motor1.com/features/724...

Does anyone out there think that tRump’s social media IPO may be a way to skirt campaign finance laws by raising cash in an IPO from what may be nefarious entities to “self-finance” his campaign?

Test Drove The Lucid Air today. It is certainly a quality built and designed vehicle. I was surprised and a little disappointed with the software. I really think this is a space Apple & Google can play in.

Test Drove the Fisker Ocean One yesterday. It's a nice car but I feel it might not compete and it's current price point.

Just a reminder The OG Mac listed for $2499.99 when introduced over 40 years ago. That would be $7380.80 in today's dollars.
