GeForce Now streams Apple Vision Pro faster & better than to Meta headsets
Nvidia’s recent update to GeForce Now enables a better gaming experience on Apple Vision Pro than any other headset. Here’s what’s changed with the game streaming service.
While you can play games on the Apple Vision Pro, it is also possible to play PC games on the headset too. However, with services like Nvidia GeForce Now, you can do it without needing a PC in the first place.
In the latest updates to the service, Nvidia has made it better for Apple Vision Pro users to play games piped through their Internet connection from servers. The update added a higher resolution and a much faster refresh rate.
That top Google result for Homebrew could infect your Mac
Malicious ads are pushing fake Homebrew installers to Mac users, and the attack relies on trusting the first Google search result.
Attackers are buying Google ads to place a fake Homebrew site above the real one, then trick users into running a malicious Terminal command. The tactic is effective because it leans on routine behavior instead of technical exploits.
Developers and everyday Mac users rely on Homebrew to install software, which makes it a high-value target. The real installation process already involves pasting a command into Terminal, so the fake version doesn’t immediately stand out.

M5 MacBook Air review: Incremental update, but the best buy for most
The new MacBook Air with M5 is no longer the entry-level MacBook in Apple’s catalog. It’s still the one most people should buy.
The new M5 MacBook Air launched into in era when Apple is taking big steps to adjust its lineup. With the introduction of the MacBook Neo, Apple has widened the potential customer base.
This repositions the MacBook Air in the process. That’s not a bad thing, though.
Apple's third co-founder insists he still owns 10% of Apple
Apparently Ron Wayne wasn’t splitting hairs. Despite quitting after 12 days, and being paid off twice, the third Apple co-founder has doubled-down on his odd claim of still owning 10% of the company.
When Ron Wayne first raised this point in March 2026 at the Computer History Museum, it sounded like splitting hairs. He said that he had never sold the 10% stake he originally had in Apple, but he appeared to want to clear up a point of pedantry.
Since Wayne quit Apple, he strictly speaking didn’t own the 10% and that’s why he could never have sold it. This seemed like a tiny point of clarification, and no more.
It's going to be a long wait for an OLED iMac
You’re going to have to be patient if you want an OLED iMac, with the recent rumors suggesting that Apple is very early in the testing process.
After many years of using LED backlighting and using miniLED in some cases, Apple has gradually been moving its product lines to OLED. However, the expense of the technology means some products will get it far later than others.
In the case of the 24-inch iMac, ZDNet Korea reports that Apple plans to bring the OLED iMac out by 2029 or 2030.
Rumor Score: 🤔 Possible
Apple Ireland appears to have broken sanctions on Russia
Apple’s Ireland subsidiary has been fined half a million dollars by UK regulators who say the company probably broke sanctions against Russia.
After Russia began its attacks on Ukraine in 2022, both the US and Europe imposed sanctions that, for example, meant Apple Pay no longer being available. Now according to the Financial Times, a UK regulator has fined Apple over payments to Okko, a Russian online video streaming service.
The UK is not part of the European Union, but the payments were made via a UK-based bank. Consequently, the country’s Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI) had the authority to impose the fine of $517,946.25.
