About us
One of the marquee new features in watchOS 7 is sleep tracking, but I'll only touch on it a bit here. In case you've missed it, the MacStories team has been running a Summer OS Preview series since this year's WWDC. The series covers new features that don't fit tidily into an OS review. A beta version of Zorin OS 16 is now available for testing. Introducing Zorin OS 16: Test the Beta Today. Zorin OS is the alternative to Windows and macOS designed to make your computer faster, more powerful, secure, and privacy-respecting. We're thrilled to finally share our next giant leap with the release of the Zorin OS 16 Beta today. The Next Giant Leap proposes solutions to resource scarcity and climate change. It outlines blueprints for a system, Universal Energy, that can accomplish this task by deploying the best energy technologies we have available into a smart, cooperating framework. Universal Energy works through a combination of four technologies. It was 45 years ago that Neil Armstrong took the small step onto the surface of the moon that changed the course of history. The years that followed saw a Space Age of scientific, technological and human research, on which we have built the modern era. We stand on a new horizon, poised to take the next giant leap—deeper into the solar system.

OS X is dead. Long live macOS.
At its annual Worldwide Developer Conference on Monday, Apple announced macOS Sierra, the next version of its computer operating system for Macs shipping this fall as a free update. It'll be available as a developer preview in July.

With macOS, Apple now has all of its operating systems for its various devices all tidied up. iPhone, iPad and iPod touch have iOS, Apple Watch has watchOS, Apple TV has tvOS and now Macs have macOS.
It's not just new branding. macOS will come with some useful new features.
Auto-unlock is one new feature that lets you automatically unlock your Mac when it detects you're wearing your Apple Watch right near it. This sub hates fine art mac os.
Apple Pay is also coming to the Mac via the web. 'So now when you're shopping online, you'll have a pay with Apple Pay button,' Apple's senior vice president of Software Engineering Craig Federighi said. Authentication is made with your iPhone's Touch ID fingerprint sensor.
Siri, Apple's personal voice assistant, finally makes its debut on the Mac. Siri is able to perform sophisticated queries according to Federighi. 'Show the files I worked on last week about the offsite.' Siri on the Mac works in conjunction with the Mac's Finder and works similarly to Windows 10's Cortana.
Picture-in-picture lets you shrink your video down into a smaller window so you can do something else while the video is running in a corner. The video window is resizable and you can move it anywhere on the screen.
iCloud Drive does more, too: You can sync multiple Mac desktops as well as view files stored on your Mac from your iPhone.
Optimized Storage will also smartly manage your files for you so your Mac always has enough storage; it does so by uploading files into the cloud and deleting them off your hard drive so you'll always have space, but never lose the files.
Universal clipboard, a feature that uses Continuity, will let users copy and paste between Macs and iOS devices.
While the new name and features are a big deal, macOS isn't a fundamental leap from the previous OS. Under the hood, macOS is still based on Unix. It's just a new name is all — and a whole bunch of new features.
