According to a recent report from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, he had earlier claimed that Apple could announce a new iPad Pro later this year. That is on par for the course since Apple typically refreshes its tablets on an annual basis, but now leakster Dylandkt has come forward with additional details.
The tweet corroborates Gurman’s claims about an iPad Pro coming this fall, and Dylandkt adds that it will most likely come with the M2 chipset. Apple refreshed the iPad Pro last year with the M1 chipset, so it makes sense that this year they might give it the M2, but what exactly are the changes between the M1 and M2 is unclear at this point in time.
The M2 iPad Pro is coming in the Fall. I have heard nothing but concerns from multiple sources with regards to its Wireless Charging/MagSafe capabilities. All iPad Pro models will have a MiniLED display. AirPods Pro 2 are also on track for a Fall release.

However, his tweet suggests that maybe Apple might not include MagSafe charging for the tablet. According to Dylandkt, apparently there are a lot of concerns about the implementation of MagSafe into the iPad Pro. We had heard rumors earlier this month that Apple could introduce MagSafe to the iPad Pro refresh where it would see Apple use a glass back for the iPad Pro and the use of stronger magnets to prevent accidents.
The tweets do not say what the problem could be that could cause Apple to reconsider the use of MagSafe, so for now, maybe temper your expectations and don’t get your hopes up just yet. That being said, the iPad has never supported wireless charging so to be honest, we don’t really feel that it’s too much of a missed opportunity, but we wouldn’t complain if it had it.

Did you know that there are different versions of Wi-Fi? For those unfamiliar, yes, there are different versions of WiFi, so just because a device has Wi-Fi support does not mean it is the same Wi-Fi you might find on another device. Newer versions, such as Wi-Fi 6, tend to offer faster speeds compared to older versions.
That being said, it seems that the next-generation of Wi-Fi could be something to look forward to, also known as Wi-Fi 7. This is according to a recent demonstration conducted by MediaTek in which they showed off the potential of the newer version which according to the Wi-Fi Alliance, could have the potential to reach speeds of up to 40Gbps!
For a bit of context, the current Wi-Fi 6 is able to go up to 9.6Gbps, which is admittedly plenty fast, but if the potential to hit 40Gbps is truly there, it could open up a lot more doors. This is because 40Gbps is pretty much on par with wired connections such as Thunderbolt 3, so if Wi-Fi 7 could reach those speeds, we could be looking at a lot more wireless peripherals that could function just as well as their wired counterparts without any perceivable lag.
According to MediaTek, they say that they expect Wi-Fi 7 productions to arrive in 2023, although how widely adopted it will be remains to be seen. Keep in mind that connectivity speeds can be affected by other things, so if your internet plan is capped at a 1Gbps connection, it won’t magically jump to 40Gbps.

You remember when you were a kid and you’d go to a toy store and see those electric toy cars but your parents could never afford them? Yea, we remember those painful moments too, but in the case of YouTube channel ND – Woodworking Art, instead of simply buying his son one of those electric toy cars, he decided to build one completely from scratch using wood.
In the video above, it shows the YouTuber’s son admiring the electric cars that other kids are driving around in and crying because he wants one too. His dad then sits him in front of a computer showing him images of a Rolls Royce Boat Tail and decides to make one for him entirely out of wood (kind of).
The body of the car itself is made from wood, which was painstakingly cut, carved, sanded, and oiled. However, it’s more than just a wooden replica. He even included a motor and electronic parts that lets the user drive the car and open up the iconic boat tail! According to the title, apparently this DIY project took about 68 days and the end result is nothing short of stunning.
Judging from the other videos in the channel, it is clearly not his first time making replica cars out of wood. He has created tanks, bicycles, and even guns out of wood. It’s really cool so if you have some time to spare, you definitely want to check it out.

With this change, certain individuals who have developed mild or moderate COVID-19 — but who haven’t been hospitalized — can receive an infusion of the drug. The goal, the FDA says, is to prevent these individuals from ending up hospitalized. Remdesivir, which is also called … Continue reading
