Here’s how iCloud’s free storage and upgrades compare to the competition
Apple first introduced iCloud at WWDC 2011, with Steve Jobs touting it as the best way to store documents, mail, backups, and more in the cloud. One thing that has infamously stayed the same since that 2011 launch: Apple gives you just 5GB of iCloud storage for free.
Nearly 13 years later, how does iCloud’s free storage offer – and paid upgrade plans – compare to the competition?

Bluesky now allows heads of state to join the platform
Now that Bluesky has opened itself up to the public and introduced some new moderation options, the team’s decided it’s finally time to allow world leaders on board, too. A post from the official Bluesky account on Friday notified users, “By the way we lifted our ‘no heads of state’ policy.” The policy has been in place for the last year as Bluesky worked through all the early growing pains of being a budding social network.
Bluesky remained an invite-only platform from its launch in February 2023 until February of this year, when it finally ditched the waitlist. Bluesky had said last May that it wasn’t ready for heads of state to join, and even asked users to give its support team notice “before you invite prominent figures.” It’s since grown to more than 5 million users, gaining roughly a million alone in the day after it stopped requiring invite codes.

Interstellar is coming back to theaters in September for its 10-year anniversary
It’s somehow been almost 10 years since Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi odyssey Interstellar was first released in theaters, and to celebrate the upcoming anniversary, Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. are bringing it back to the big screen. Per Variety, Paramount announced at CinemaCon this week that Interstellar will be re-released on September 27, 2024 in IMAX 70mm and digital. Interstellar, starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain, debuted in the US in fall 2014.
In true form for Nolan, the film is a bit of a mind-bender. Interstellar presents us with a near-future Earth that is becoming uninhabitable due to an unbeatable blight that’s wiped out nearly all food crops. A team of astronauts sets out to space in search of another planet that could support life, using a wormhole to reach a galaxy beyond our own, and space-time weirdness ensues. It’s a great movie and was well-received at the time of its release (even if it left a ton of people confused about what h

Our favorite Sony wireless earbuds are on sale for a record-low price
If you’ve been eyeing Sony’s WF-1000XM5 earbuds but were put off by the steep price tag, now would be the perfect time to pick up a set. The premium earbuds, normally $300, are down to a record low price of $230 on Amazon, for a savings of $70. This deal only applies to the earbuds in black. The Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds were released in summer 2023 and brought major upgrades over the previous model. They boast the best noise cancellation and call quality of Sony’s earbuds lineup, and have built-in Alexa support.
The Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds are our top pick for the best earbuds for this year. They’re more comfortable than the WF-1000XM4s, being 25 percent smaller and 20 percent lighter for a much better fit. The charging case, too, is more compact than its predecessor. In terms of sound quality, they further improve upon the already impressive capabilities of the 1000X line. The speakers are slightly larger than the previous model’s, and their Dynamic Driver X drivers make for ric

Apple unterstützt Verkauf von Macs mit 8 GB RAM
Für den Verkauf von Macs mit 8 GB RAM hat sich Apple ausgesprochen, weil Apple zur Folge diese Größe des Arbeitsspeichers gleichbedeutend mit 16 GB RAM in einem Windows-PC sei. Bei der Einführung des M3 MacBook Pro im Jahr 2023 gab es einige Kritiken, dass Apple seinen Kunden weiterhin Premium-Computer mit 8 GB RAM verkauft.

YouTube-App auf Apple TV mit Bildschirmschoner
Spielt kein Video, startet nach fünf Minuten (irgend-)ein Video in der geöffneten YouTube-App auf dem Apple TV. Pausiert ihr einen laufenden Clip, zeigt Googles Software nach kurzer Zeit das langsam ein- und ausblendende Thumbnail dieses Videos. Dieser „Screensaver“ unterdrückt Apples Luftaufnahmen, insofern keine 2-Minuten-Startzeit („Einstellungen“ > „Allgemein“ > „Bildschirmschoner“) gewählt wurde. I fully expect YouTube’sweiterlesen

Meta is stuffing its AI chatbot into your Instagram DMs
On Friday, people around the web noticed a new addition to their Instagram: Meta AI, the company’s general-purpose, AI-powered chatbot that can answer questions, write poetry and generate images with a simple text prompt. The move isn’t surprising. Meta revealed Meta AI in September 2023 and has spent the last few months adding the chatbot to products like Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp, so adding it to Instagram seems like a no-brainer.

“Our generative AI-powered experiences are under development in various phases, and we’re testing a range of them publicly in a limited capacity,” a Meta spokesperson told Engadget, which suggests that not everyone has the feature available yet. TechCrunch, which first noted the news, said that Meta AI was showing up in Instagram’s search bar. But for some of us at Engadget, the fea
