I'm looking forward to reading the next research paper that shows that this new interface will have given users more eye-strain and stress.

Mac Gaming​

As Apple continues to try to push the Mac forward as a platform for video games, it's adding a new dedicated app, Apple Games, for macOS Tahoe. The new app lets you launch your games, find new ones, and play with friends. Versions of this app will also show up on iOS and iPadOS.

I have a question about this.

Does Apple intent to retain its hostile confrontational attitude against Vulkan?

I found the entire presentation rather boring. The entire presentation was basically 85-90% fresh coat of paint.

So how is the Mac Gaming scene these days?
I hear and see exactly zero people wanting a mac to game on, despite the excellent screen, speakers, long battery runtime, and supposedly excellent GPU.
Like you'd think said features would be a killer for a gaming laptop.

I game on my M3 Air a bit. Games that have been optimized for Mac run fantastic, those that have not been, or are run through emulation are....mmmmmnnn. Even the most basic Apple Silicon GPU has a lot of potential, but the slim developer support makes the landscape pretty barren still, at least in regards to AAA titles. Another issue that's not often brought up is the slow response time of Apple's displays. The lag is real.

Has there ever been an exciting Apple event? At least they aren't as woefully cringeworthy as an Nivida event, with Leatherman making a fool of himself.

Oh, I think Craig Federighi did a real nice cringeworthy job of that yesterday.

Tim Cook is running a [financially] successful company but one that is innovating at some of the lowest rates in the company's history. It's no wonder Jony Ive left.
