@reckless The nano-texture option on the new iMac costs $500. https://t.co/zIm9g1x1or — PolitiTweet.org

I was going to call the chin on the current iMac design “Leno-esque” but @reckless rightly pointed out that is a fairly dated reference. So uh… Thano-esque. — PolitiTweet.org

Apple has a new iMac — but it’s not a big redesign nor is it ARM. Good bits though: 1080p webcam, option for nano-texture matted glass, standard SSDs across the line, and 10th-gen Intel chips. More details here: https://t.co/NFSDmauE9W https://t.co/oOVqL0Nsqb — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the details on Microsoft’s xCloud launch: Sept 15th, part of Game Pass’ $14.99 subscription. Still no iOS (or ARM Windows lol sigh) support, but lots of controllers. https://t.co/aKzGj6DRjv — PolitiTweet.org

I’m back from vacation and so is the Processor newsletter. Today I wrote about two unrelated conundrums: Google’s Pixel conundrum and Micrsoft’s TikTok conundrum. I have way more chill about the first one. https://t.co/fUBUtjvf3a https://t.co/PoPlgO7Hc1 — PolitiTweet.org

I still think this is a wholly unnecessary thing for Google to get into. I sincerely hope that these "digital bank accounts through Google Pay" are not locked down to Google Pay should a customer want to convert it to a direct relationship with the bank. https://t.co/k5EHuuaozE — PolitiTweet.org

One thing nobody ever seems to learn from Amazon: any millisecond slow-down in the buying process can and will result in lost sales. Microsoft learned it for the Xbox store I guess, but far too late: https://t.co/zEUHFrs6LN — PolitiTweet.org

Here is my bad pandemic hair and also a demo of Google's Live Caption feature working with a phone call on the new Pixel 4A https://t.co/I3LRrGtRLZ https://t.co/nYaBiYONdJ — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

So here’s the surprising bottom line: I PREFER the $350 Pixel 4A to the regular $800 Pixel 4. The Pixel 4A has better battery life. (Compared to the Pixel 4 XL I’d probably pick the XL — but the price difference there is V A S T) https://t.co/I3LRrGtRLZ https://t.co/0o3GEpwJzV — PolitiTweet.org
