Apple has just launched the macOS Sequoia public beta, meaning you can install macOS 15 now and try out a host of the new features that are coming later this year. In the absence of Apple Intelligence – which is currently nowhere to be found -- one of my favorite additions is iPhone Mirroring, which displays a fully interactive version of your iPhone on your Mac’s display. Unfortunately, in its current state, iPhone Mirroring is missing a key aspect that made it so enticing in the first place.When Apple demoed iPhone Mirroring at WWDC 2024 in June, it explained that...

NEW JERSEY - Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin and the Division of Consumer Affairs announced today that Walmart has agreed to pay $1.64 million to settle allegations of unlawful unit pricing practices across its 64 New Jersey retail stores.

The betas launched without any of the big Apple Intelligence features Apple announced at WWDC 2024 — those are expected in beta versions for compatible devices later in the fall — but there’s still plenty to try out. The iPhone and iPad are finally letting you put icons wherever you want, there’s a new option to apply a universal tint to all of your apps, and the iPad finally has a built-in calculator. There are also slick updates to macOS that let you mirror and even control your iPhone on your desktop or laptop screen.

Apple today took the wraps off its HomePod mini smart speaker in a new “midnight” color. The new mini is made with 100 percent recycled mesh, according to Apple, and stands 3.3 inches tall. You may be familiar with the new Midnight color, which matches a shade of MacBook Air, technically a deep blue with a hint of black.

There are light and dark versions of the icon with a colorful G and with a monochrome G. If you have version 324.0 of the app or newer (it’s currently on 325.0), you can set your app icon from Settings > General > Change app icon. (To get the option to appear, I had to force-close the app and reopen it.)

Maziply Toys, an award-winning, independently-owned toy store in Kingston, has recently announced they've opened a new location in Massachusetts. The company, which was founded by Scott and Kerri Mazerall in 2014, started as an online toy store before beginning its brick-and-mortar retail journey in 2015. "Today, Maziply Toys prides itself on being the largest toy store in New England," the company explains on its website. Their first store location, inside the Kingston Collection, offers an array of toys, games, and interactive attractions, including laser tag, a mirror maze, a BEAM virtual playground, and ride-on mechanical animals.
