The Dalrymple Report: Recent Episodes
Jim Dalrymple
Jim Dalrymple and Dave Mark face off on all things Apple, tech, music, and just a sprinkling of hockey.
Dave found a new site, that is about 25 years old, that has shown him a lot about learning guitar. We talk about the different priorities we have when it comes to learning the instrument. A new beta of iOS 27 came out, and it fixed some of the issues we brought up last week on the show. Apple introduced a new leasing program that is better than I thought it would be.

It's been quite a while since Dave changed the strings on his guitar (and even longer for me), so we take a minute to talk about how much we forgot and what's still in our minds. Since installing iOS 27, my favorite app is Apple's built in Weather app. The updates may seem small, but if you use it a lot, it's an incredible upgrade. This is how Apple should update apps--it's not just about adding 100 new features, it's about making those features work better for the user. Apple just finished a round of hardware price increases and now the company is increasing pricing on its subscription too. I would rather pay after seeing if the software is going to get any better.

OpenAI is planning to release a new hardware device that will be a movable, screenless speaker built as an AI companion. OpenAI is also fending off a lawsuit from Apple accusing former employees, who now work for OpenAI, of stealing Apple's trade secrets. AI is also revamping Apple's plans for how it's going to release its next set of chips for its devices. AI is demanding more power for every generation of chips. New York has become the first state to impose an AI Data Center ban, citing enormous power usage as one reason.

Dave recently bought an M5 MacBook Air before the price hikes took effect. That gives him three MacBook Airs and he talks about the differences he's found. Dave also has the most recent OS betas installed on several of his devices and we discuss his experiences so far. Everyone knows how expensive it is to live in San Francisco, but things have take a crazy turn in the city that is changing the housing market.

On this week's show we talk about the passing of Om Malik, a wonderful man and a friend to many. Dave has some thoughts on the impact of the recent price hikes for Apple hardware and what it could mean for future products. We still don't know what will happen if you replace Siri with Claude in iOS 27, so I asked Claude his understanding. Not as good as I had hoped. There is a Hide My Email bug that Apple software was alerted about last year that allows people to see your real icloud.com email address, but Apple has yet to fix it. For a company that preaches on how important privacy and security is, you would think they'd be all over this. Maybe they'll get to it next year.

Tim Cook announced pretty significant price increases to Apple's hardware line this week. The increases came because of component shortages that have been happening for the past few months. Apple is moving its Hide My Email feature to its own subdomain, which means that businesses can block all attempts to sign-up for a service by blocking the new subdomain. Seems odd Apple would do this. Dave and I also chat about AI and what could happen with Apple Music.

It was a big week for Apple at WWDC with the relaunch of Apple Intelligence and the long promised revamped Siri. Unfortunately for those in the EU, many of the new AI features shown at WWDC will not be available in Europe due to the laws the EU has implemented. Apple spent some time previewing its new child protection features, which will roll out in iOS 27. Dave takes a look at some of the newest features in iOS and iPadOS.

Dave just bought his first e-bike so we talk about how the technology and the prices have changed over the past couple of years. WWDC is coming up next week and it is going to be an exciting time. Of course, the biggest news is that Gemini will now be incorporated into all of Apple's operating systems. We also talk talk about the privacy issues and what Apple is going to do to avoid sharing customer information with Google.

In an article for Bloomberg, Mark Gurman makes the case for an Apple Watch reboot. He's certainly not wrong, the Apple Watch has been stagnant for years now. Some keen people have found a new URL in the updated code pointing to a new subdomain genai.apple.com. Nothing happens when you click on it, but I'm sure after WWDC, we'll get to see exactly what it's for. People have been stealing iPhones since they first came out, but in London, the thieves are also starting to text threats to family members.

If you're any kind of a musician, singer, or anyone else that could be onstage, Dave has a story for you! And a question about the story that was harder to answer than I thought it would be. We talk about the new AirPods Pro With AI Cameras that are apparently in the "advanced testing stages." Do you use Visual Intelligence? We ask ourselves that question too.

Perhaps one of the best Apple Intelligence decisions I've ever heard, the company announced this week that users will be able to swap Apple's AI model to a rival's to control the new AI system. That means you could use Claude or Gemini or another company that wants to have theirs available. Dave and I also talk about Apple's decision to show advertising on Maps. A disappointing choice for a company that ridiculed Google for its advertising efforts to customers and saying Apple doesn't treat its customers like the product.

We also look at the pipeline of products that John Ternus will be released under his tenure as CEO. Many of the products, we've already heard about but they couldn't be released because the software wasn't ready. Others are new categories. There are reports that Apple has given up on the Vision Pro after a lukewarm response.

Apple's MacBook Neo is selling much better than the company thought, which has caused a delimena it must now work through. IT would seem from the rumors that the foldable iPhone is a thing, but what should Apple name such a product? The Apple Stores are not the experience they used to be and Apple is closing a few of the retail stores.

Apple has finally updated the AirPods Pro Max, but the update didn't bring a lot of new features, it basically brought the headphones on pair with the AirPods Pro. Dave and I talk about AI and whether Apple chose to stay out of the spending spree or if it was caught unprepared for one of the biggest tech changes in a long time. Do you know what could be in the figs you love to eat? Me neither, but Dave tells us.

It looks like some of the best features of Siri have once again slipped and will not be introduced when Apple said they would.

There are rumors that Tim Cook is getting ready to retire from Apple as early as next year. Many think the link was intentional to test the market to see what it thinks before making anything official. In Japan, users can replace Siri on their iPhones, something people in most countries would love to do. Apple's newest product, the iPhone Pocket seems to be a success.

Just when you think it couldn't get any worse, Siri strikes again. Ask Siri, "what month is it?" on your iPhone and you get the reply, "Sorry, I don't understand." Apple's Siri executive held a meeting about the technology and was pretty brutal about the failings Apple has had until now. Oh yeah, Apple Intelligence is delayed, again.

There is a lot to talk about this week. I suppose the biggest news is the announcement of the iPhone 16e, a new model of the budget iPhone from Apple. While it may be less expensive than other models in the lineup, it has some impressive specs, including Apple's first cellular modem.

Dave has been working on the best solution to keep his phone silent but still not miss any important calls. He thinks he has it worked out. Apple released a new app called Invites that is pretty cool. As the name implies, it lets you create invites with shared photo albums and Apple Music Playlists. It may be ten years too late, but still cool. We revisit a favorite topic this time of year, Apple's iconic Super Bowl ads and how things have changed in recent years.

With the upcoming release of iOS 18.3, Apple Intelligence can no longer be considered a beta, but sadly it still sucks really bad.

Did you know that your iPhone has a laundry tag decoder built-in? Me neither, but Dave found it and shows us how it works. With the new season of Severance here, Apple did one of the most remarkable campaigns to a TV show ever. We often talk about security and scammers on this show, but it has hit a new level of sophistication and it is truly scary.

This forced me into getting a subscription to Spotify and it has some really cool features. We are all looking (cautiously) forward to AI, but some of the new products are really bad. We take a look at one of them.

If you've opened up Apple TV lately, you know that all you can see is ads for Lionel Messi—everywhere.

Dave and I also talk about the Vision Pro App Store and how important that will be going forward. Elon Musk changed the name of Twitter to X—does that make any sense at all?

In a new article this week, Mark Gurman compares the Apple Watch to Apple's rumored headset. In a lot of ways, he's right.

GM has announced that it's not going to support CarPlay in its new EVs—we look at why they are making this decision and if it will backfire. We hear, and see, the South Korean President do a karaoke version of Don McLean's American Pie.

AirTags once again saved someone's luggage from disappearing as a woman tracked her bag traveling around town for a couple of days before making a discovery that is troubling to say the least. Apple unvelied a new AI audio book narrator, which on the surface sounds like a great idea, however, there is an entire industry dedicated to the spoken word—what happens to them? We've been taught to backup our files for as long as we've been using computers, but what happens if you lose access to your cloud accounts?

Apple is rumored to be working on a search engine to rival Google. While competition is good, it seems like a steep hill for Apple to climb because its search isn't exactly very good. Apple was bidding for the NFL Sunday Ticket, but pulled out of the bidding at the last minute, which saw the NFL package go to rival YouTube. Have you ever thought about getting a foldable phone? Dave and I talk about whether or not Apple should, or would, make such a device.

Dave and I both started using Apple Music this week and had some things we liked and didn't like about the new feature. We also looked at some of the new features in iOS 16.2, the latest version of Apple's iPhone operating system. Because of new laws in the EU, Apple may have to start allowing apps to be downloaded outside of the App Store. Is this something you would do? Dave and I give our opinions on security, privacy and the App Store.

Dave picked up some Apple Watch bands that he says are just as good as Apple's own bands, but a whole lot cheaper. Did you know Siri can give you word definitions and spelling if you ask her? I didn't.

We also talk about Apple's design team and if product design is changing at the company, and what that could mean for users.
