Apple has announced that it’s landed ’Wild Things,’ a new limited series starring Jude Law and Andrew Garfield as renowned showmen Siegfried & Roy.
Written, showrun and executive produced by six-time Emmy Award nominee John Hoffman (co-creator and showrunner, ”Only Murders in the Building”), the eight-episode, hourlong series tells the wild ride relationship tale of two of the greatest showmen-magicians in history who, along with their white tigers, are tasked with turning Sin City into a family-friendly destination. The duo push the concept of illusion versus reality to the extreme, personally and professionally, until tragedy reframes and opens a mystery surrounding their last fateful Las Vegas show. Law will star as Siegfried and Garfield will star as Roy, and the series is set to go into production this fall. Matt Shakman (”Monarch: Legacy of Monsters,” ”WandaVision,” upcoming ”The Fantastic Four: First Steps”) will direct the pilot and serve as executive producer.

Apple (Nasdaq:AAPL) has spent decades making sure everyone can use its hardware, which is why the company regularly celebrates Global Accessibility Awareness Day with news about upcoming improvements in its operating systems. This year’s collection is particularly compelling, including a tool to let you read real-time Live Captions of conversations taking place around you using your Apple Watch, enabling people with poor hearing to engage more actively during meetings.
The company announces a raft of new accessibility features in the weeks prior to WWDC each year. This year is a bit of a feature jamboree, with a host of new accessibility tools promised in Apple’s devices when iOS 19 and macOS 16 ship later this year. The company has invested in accessibility for 40 years, ever since 1985.

Mac-tipset som många missar: Använd ”Hörn för aktiva åtgärder” för blixtsnabb kontroll
Macen har ett smart, men lite dolt knep för att spara tid: ”Aktiva hörn” (Hot Corners) – en funktion som låter dig styra systemet bara genom att föra muspekaren till ett av skärmens hörn.
Så funkar det:
Med ett svep till ett hörn av skärmen kan du t.ex.
– visa skrivbordet
– starta skärmsläckaren
– sätta datorn i viloläge
– visa alla öppna fönster
– öppna Launchpad
– starta Snabbanteckning
– eller låsa datorn.
Så här ställer du in det:
- Gå till Systeminställningar > Skrivbord och Dock > Hörn för aktiva åtgärder (eller via Mission Control i äldre macOS).
- Välj vad varje hörn ska göra.
- (Tips: Håll in ett modifieringstangent, som ⌘ eller ⌥, för att undvika oavsiktliga aktiveringar.)
Varför det är värdefullt:
– Du kan låsa datorn med en snabb svepning.
– Kom snabbt till skrivbordet om du behöver ”stänga ner” röran.
– Det kräver inga extra program – bara macOS och en muspekare.
Det är ett typiskt Apple-trick: kraftfullt, diskret och alltid där – om du vet var du ska leta.
