    “Welcome to Lumon.”

    Here’s a look at a Severance-themed “evening of sanctioned merriment” that Apple hosted this weekend at the New Jersey Bell Works building. The Apple TV Plus show’s cast and crew were able to “share their experience and connect with fans,” as 9to5Mac writes.

    Here’s a teardown of the unreleased Pixel 9A.

    Google isn’t shipping the Pixel 9A until April 10th, as 9to5Google notes, but that didn’t stop the PBKreviews channel from acquiring and disassembling one. As phones go, this one looks fairly easy to take apart, although as noted in the video’s description, it may not be easy to replace the charging port.

    House Oversight Reps suggest Musk is using DOGE role for Starlink’s gain.

    In a letter to the White House, two Democrat Representatives express concern about the “significant ethical, security, and regulatory implications” of the federal government’s increased use of Elon Musk’s Starlink service, including the at the White House starting last month, reports FedScoop.

    They say he has publicly called for more federal installations, raising “considerable red flags as to whether Mr. Musk is using his position in the federal government to benefit his companies.”

    Apple releases an app for storing and streaming Vision Pro videos.

    “Apple Immersive Video Utility” is available now for Macs and Vision Pros, though only in US English, as MacRumors notes. With the Mac version, you can “import, organize, package, and review Apple Immersive Video,” Apple’s immersive video format. You can stream the videos, synchronized, to one or more headsets with the visionOS version installed.

    That could make it easier to share in-person experiences. If you can find another Vision Pro owner, that is.

    Get your screwdrivers ready.

    US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick insisted in a Face the Nation appearance today that President Trump’s tariffs will “stay in place” and will result in things like “the army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in little screws to make iPhones” coming to the US.

    He acknowledged that “it’s gonna be automated,” which is just one of the reasons more manufacturing may not mean more jobs.

    The US told Apple to keep TikTok in the App Store.

    Attorney General Pam Bondi sent Apple a letter “telling the company it should follow President Donald Trump’s executive order” extending ByteDance’s deadline to sell TikTok by 75 more days, reports Bloomberg. The outlet had reported a similar letter sent to both Google and Apple prior to their decision to restore the app to their online marketplaces in February, too.
