Apple has officially renamed its streaming service:
"Apple TV+ is now simply #AppleTV, with a vibrant new identity."
Hopefully a precursor to further clarifying announcements later this week!

#Twinless is my comedy of the year.
Whilst its premise revolves around a heinous lie, the film’s success derives from speaking unspoken truths about identity, loss, loneliness, and male companionship. James Sweeney and Dylan O’Brien are incredible together!

#TheMorningShow is back. Doubling down on last season’s pivot from prestige drama to delectably chaotic soap opera, the usual UBA jockeying continues amid corporate coverups, conspiracy theories, deepfakes, surprise call-backs, and stupendous scandal.

As demonstrated by my friend Kaustubh Debnath on X, iOS 26 renders Liquid Glass UI in HDR! Taps on bottom nav bars trigger specular highlights, peaking at around 350 nits.
Screenshots and recordings can capture the additional luminance data in PQ EOTF with HDR10 🤯

Late to the party today, but I bought an iPhone 17 Pro Max earlier, and you better believe I colour matched my Siri Remote. An upgrade was in doubt this year, so what was the clincher? Open gate recording and Pro-Res Raw. Looking forward to matching my other cameras.

Apple bringing bullet-time to the masses is a pretty wild flex following Danny Boyle’s #28YearsLater. You may need additional resource and people to maximise the most out of #iPhonePro models for a video workflow, but the possibilities are beyond mind-boggling.
