The Apple Watch is a thing of
absolute beauty. But, while
using the Series 6, I was
struck with a thought: will
the Apple Watch design ever
actually change? The
Curpertino-based company
isn’t exactly known for
left-field approaches to
product design. It’s all

little sooner than we first
thought. As it stands, the
consensus is that EVs and
regular cars will reach price

When it comes to incentivizing
individuals to make more
environmentally conscious
travel decisions, government
subsidies have proven quite
successful in the past. In a
number of European countries,
there are subsidies for buying
new and used electric cars,

in your home, and even
discounted bus tickets for
those in low income […]

The dating game may never be
the same again, that’s
right: the iPhone 12 Pro
can measure people’s
height. One of the new
features on Apple’s most
recent premium handset was the
introduction of a LiDAR

explainer here, but
basically, LiDAR is like
