A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Is anyone else excited to see Apple's annoucements at WWDC this year?

I'm not sure why there is so much hype on an AR/VR experience. They've always seemed like a bit of a gimmic to me, as they don't seem good for productivity, and gaming in VR sounds like it would give me a massive headache/seasickeness.

I'm not really in the apple ecosystem outside of using Logic Pro on my Mac Mini because it's my favorite DAW. But I'm curious to see how their VR stuff goes. It's looking to be VERY expensive and might give Meta a leg up with the Quest 3 as a result.

I hope they give a refresh on the laptops. They're feeling weak as of late, and have the sales to match.

Yeah, I haven't been able to justify their laptops lately. I had/have a 2016 MBP 15" that I gave to my dad last year since it was a bit slow for what I was doing, and since working from home I wasn't using it much. Would be nice to get either a desktop or laptop (or for them to release more desktop apps for iPadOS).
