Updated macOS 12 Monterey page reveals Safari 15 with tabs that look like tabs

Not that my complaints carried any weight, but it is good to see that the Safari team have listened and the browser is getting proper tabs back.

"THE BATMAN" trailer

I wasn't holding out much hope for this latest incarnation of Batman but the trailer does look really good and now all of a sudden I can't wait.

"Springboard: The Secret History of the First Real Smartphone" trailer

I've been meaning to post this for a couple of weeks now. It looks really interesting.

More interestingly, this debuts on The Verge's own smart TV apps. Their Apple TV app is delayed while they sort out subtitling which for some reason is something Apple handles differently on this one device. Even after 4 years, BBC's iPlayer still doesn't support subtitles in it's Apple TV app.

iOS 15 features, tips and tricks you probably don't know

I certainly learnt quite a bit looking through this but this is the one thing I genuinely didn't know you could do:

  1. Edit the Safari start page
    • Enable and re-order the features on the page
    • Choose a default background
    • I also realised that the iCloud Tabs feature has an icon that lets you switch between devices (I thought it wasn't working)

Love this lower cost version of a LEGO Tumbler. Would fit in nicely with all of the other LEGO things we've collected over the past few years.

Price: £34.99

Create amazing wallpapers using iPhone 13 Pro's Macro feature

Plenty of inspiration in this video to give you ideas on different materials and lighting you can use to create textures that are perfect for abstract macro photography. Some of the images are really nice and a little editing goes a long way taking them from initial capture to becoming wallpaper ready.
