It's an interesting show as we look at a few strange topics, including how AI is shutting down some refrigerators. We also talked about Muse, Meta's AI tool that we really haven't talked about before. It's coming onto the scene very fast, and Meta may have some products that could change things significantly. Dave fills us in on Apple's "prepare to ship" feature for the iPhone 18 Pro Max. Show Notes: AI shut down some refrigerators The M-pire Strikes Back

It was a sad day for the music world as one of the greats passed away this week. Dolly Parton was celebrated around the world when news of her passing reached the public, and every bit of it was deserved. Apple's first event featuring its new CEO, John Ternus, has been announced for September 9, 2026, at 10 a.m. It is expected that John will introduce a bunch of new products, including the Foldable iPhone. It'll be an event to watch for sure. Apple this week also announced a new Mac mini with M6, M5 Pro, a new MacStudio with M5 Max, and M5 Ultra. That's a lot of power.
