The Mac & Forth Show 399 - The Update Apocalypse

In this week's episode of The Mac & Forth Show, Alan, Dean, Steve, and Karl delve into the major tech fiasco caused by a faulty CrowdStrike update that disrupted half the world's IT systems. They also discuss Microsoft's bold move in blaming the European Commission for this global disaster. On a different note, the hosts examine Apple's attempts to cut costs on Apple TV productions, signalling the end of the high-budget era. The episode also highlights an exciting new feature for iPhone users: YouTube's 'Jump Ahead,' which promises to enhance user experience. Lastly, they explore Apple's updates to Apple Maps in preparation for the Summer Olympics. All this, and slightly more on this week’s episode.
