Veterans Day

Enjoying a free lunch with my wife at The Thirsty Lion around the corner from where we live, and our favorite watering hole. I'm wearing my USAF leather flight jacket. Those flight jackets were issued back in 1993, or thereabouts. At the time, we were stationed at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey, just north of Syria.

***************************
What A Bookstore Can Tell US

Barnes and Nobel has three huge two-sided magazine racks at the front of the store.

This is the front side of the first rack one sees upon entering the store.

The three rows of the technology section: camera and photo magazines; computers, software; and, at the bottom, gaming.

Top two rows:

Bottom row:  

With all the focus on gaming, one would think gaming would be at the top.

With all the smart phone cameras most of us would have thought 35-mm cameras were dead. But not dead, and, in fact, by the number of different magazines, and the prominence of the magazines, it is obvious that the 35-mm single reflex high-end digital cameras are thriving.

And, finally, computer and software magazines. Years ago you wouldn't have an Apple cover but now it's hard to not see an Apple cover.

**************************
Cameras

It's counterintuitive, but one wonders if the Apple iPhone might not be responsible for the resurgence of the high-end digital camera?

And, oh, by the way, comparing an "old" iPhone camera -- the iPhone 14 -- with a high-end Sony camera tells you how far the iPhone cameras have come.

Headlines — Start With Apple — Veterans Day — Seldom Happy — Always Bittersweet

Locator: 46021HEADLINES. 

On tap: next week.

NASA+: free. Went live last week. Direct to site. Holy mackerel.

US crude oil exports: massive.

WTI: likely to go lower.

US crude oil inventories: update, EIA report delayed for one week.

Riyadh Air: new start-up to order 100 Boeing 737 Max jets.

TotalEnergies to expand in Texas: huge.

Deregulation: unmitigated disaster?

Diamond pricing collapse: Bloomberg.

Ann Mather: and Steve Jobs.

Money: and happiness.

Disney: to lose big on The Marvels. 

Apple earnings: analysis. This is probably the best analysis I’ve seen. To whet your appetite: 

Services reached a new all-time revenue record of $22.3 billion, +16% Y/Y, accelerating from +8% Y/Y in the previous quarter. Apple set new records in every Services category. The growth was attributed to double-digit growth in transacting and paid accounts. 
Apple now has “well over 1 billion paid subscriptions.” 
How big are Services? To put the $22.3 billion revenue into perspective — it was more than the combined revenues of Netflix, Mastercard, Spotify, Electronic Arts, Dropbox, and Peloton in the same quarter. 
Disney subscribers: 150 million. Netflix: 250 million. Warner Bros Discovery (MAX, HBO): 95 million and falling. 
How “big” is Apple? Almost 50% of Buffet’s entire equity portfolio is one stock: AAPL. Let that sink in.

Apple’s earnings: graphic.

Apple’s clout: see Amazon-Apple agreement.

Apple product review: Pro M3. To whet your appetite: 

Hello again. It’s only been about 10 months since the M2 Pro and Max chips arrived on the MacBook Pros, but that’s already old news. Here I am with the MacBook Pro 16 with the M3 Max chip — and hoo boy, this is one big, beefy hunk of Pro laptop. 
It’s priced like one, too. 
If this bad boy and its benchmarks came out in 2021, we’d all be picking our jaws up off the floor. But it’s 2023, and we’ve already seen what Apple Silicon can do. 
Spec bumps just aren’t as tantalizing as whole transitions. And while this computer is powerful, it starts at $3,499. That’s for the “base” M3 Max configuration with a 14-core CPU, 30-core GPU, 36GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. That’s about as much as my current rent is for a two-bedroom New York City apartment.

Cameras: will Apple spur 35 mm camera sales this Christmas?

The Verge: time to subscribe. Christmas present to me.
