☆ Apple announces new and smaller Mac Mini with first redesign since 2010

Apple announced on Tuesday new Mac Mini models, featuring the first major redesign since 2010 that makes the desktop computer significantly smaller. The Mac Mini is Apple's least-expensive Mac, starting at $599, and does not include a display, which is sold separately. The Mac Mini is not one of Apple's highest-volume computers in terms of sales, but it is an important slot in Apple's lineup, especially for people who make apps for iPhones and other Apple platforms. Many iPhone developers like to run a Mac Mini as a personal development server for coordinating uploads and code. One improvement in the new design is that all of the ports are USB-C ports, the same more modern offering found on Apple's laptops.

When I travel solo, I am forced to sit with myself and examine things that are boiling under the surface.

EV fast chargers – the big tall units that look like major appliances – aren’t generally designed to completely fill an EV’s batteries. A line of EVs wait to charge at Electrify America chargers in East Brunswick, New Jersey, on July 6. At 10 of the busiest EV fast charging stations in California, Electrify America has enacted a strict limit. There can also be other legitimate reasons a driver may want to charge to 100% at a fast charger, said Barrosa. Cases like these are why Electrify America probably won’t institute an overall charging cap at charging stations near major highways, he said.

When your child starts attending public school, schools close down during the summer period.

However, only 53% of Japanese said they feel "vacation deprived" compared to 65% of Americans, it showed.
