This expected development follows App Store changes being introduced in June to avoid being slapped with additional fines for violating anti-steering rules under the EU’s DMA. Apple spokesperson Peter Ajemian sent the following statement to The Verge:

The racing drama is now Apple’s highest-grossing movie to date after generating $293 million at the global box office over the last ten days, overtaking the $221 million total intake set by Ridley Scott’s Napoleon in 2023. It’s a short leaderboard given that Apple has only released five films theatrically, however, and it already covers the $250 million that F1 cost to produce.

The company doesn’t have any posts on the platform yet, but you can follow its profile now.

The bulk of Foxconn’s Chinese staff working on iPhones in India have been ordered back to China, according to a new Bloomberg report. It appears to be part of a concerted effort to prevent “technology, skilled labor and specialized equipment to leave China for manufacturing upstarts such as India.”

It’s been a bit since we’ve heard from Apple about its adaptation of William Gibson’s seminal cyberpunk novel Neuromancer. And while it’ll likely be quite some time before we actually see the series, today brings some good news: the show is officially in production.

That’s what Apple is working on next, at least according to supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The more affordable MacBook would use the same A18 Pro chip found in the iPhone 16 Pro series, and pack a 13-inch display and colorful finishes like silver, blue, pink, and yellow.

The Brad Pitt-starring racing drama opened to more than $55 million in the US this weekend, and $144 million worldwide. That’s still a ways short of the movie’s $200-300 million production budget, but it’s easily on track to beat the $221 million-earning Napoleon as Apple’s biggest film yet.

The company has released an update to its Ultimate Software V2 that expands the number of devices you can customize using the macOS version, bringing it more in line with the Windows version, it announced on X.

That is, if the actual phone looks anything like these photos from leaker Majin Bu. What do you think?

The original source of the report, Cybernews, says that since the start of the year, its researchers have “discovered 30 exposed datasets containing from tens of millions to over 3.5 billion records each. In total, the researchers uncovered an unimaginable 16 billion records.”

According to @NekoMichiUBC on X, and a Reddit thread, the first developer beta of macOS Tahoe does not include support for the IEEE 1394 standard, which Apple calls FireWire. Older external drives, capturing footage from MiniDV cameras, and even the first generation iPod aren’t compatible.
