Good to hear on rPI4 stock. Now if they only stocked the full line of rPI4 Compute Modules, I would be a happy camper. FYI, RaspberryPI will soon have competition as there are some some new Rockchip RK3588 SoC chips which are 8-core (Cortex-A76x…

There is more to it than just having a servo press or press-hold the power button. You need to have some sort of KVM connected to HDMI or USB-C Display and KB/mouse and route the video to remote control of some sort. The SSD's are factory encrypte…

Microsoft has yet to patch a very serious Secure Boot vulnerability on PC's. Apparently, fixing it will break perhaps millions of PCs. Once the fixes have been enabled, your PC will no longer be able to boot from older bootable media that doesn…

The problem with AirTags is that the thieves will see alerts about an AirTag following them on an iPhone or Android phone with the Apple software installed. They will then locate the tag and remove it. The experienced thieves will quickly adapt to …

This is nothing new and certainly not unique to Apple. Pratt & Whitney who manufacture jet engines caught a series of employees in a conspiracy. They were stealing hundreds of millions by making inventory disappear and selling it to airlines ar…

Here is a good explainer of how updates have changed in macOS and what is happening: https://eclecticlight.co/2022/03/19/explainer-macos-updaters/ Howard Oakley has a lot of information on his blog posts and quite a few extremely useful MacAdmin to…

Truly awful and depressing show... I didn't make it past a few episodes before I gave up.

Likely going to cost extra. But this is the first step in getting Xcode on iPad. For many years Xcode has had the option to collaboratively compile. Now add in data center level parallel compiling managed for you in the Cloud. With the added bonus…

New hardware can drop at any time when Apple is ready. They will just have a smaller event like they did for the M1 launch. It could happen next month or this fall, etc. Remember, they are planning to update the entire Mac lineup by the end of 2022…

$49.99 for a plastic tray with silicon pads? I'm in the wrong business...

Apple PR wouldn't be a challenge. Now Uber? Yeah, that's a challenge. They have a soiled public image with serious challenges.

I for one, am very pleased with the ability to use Apple Pay in more places more frequently. Even my local gas pumps finally upgraded to Apple Pay. Course, I am not filling up weekly like I used to. More like every couple of months or gasp... lon…

Fourth job is the charm? Couldn't cut it at Disney, nor Hulu, and not even Quibi (never heard of it) and now he's going to try AppleTV+? When executives fail they get a golden parachute and then they land on new unbroken ground and simply dig anoth…

IoT adds some wonderful conveniences, But: Smart lights, cameras, microphones (Alexa, Google, etc), thermostats, locks, blinds, garage door opener, SmartTV's, etc., etc., etc. Are all phoning home to the Internet to different Clouds while being plac…

The ARM A12Z is just to get the developers running on the new silicon. It's not what Apple will be shipping in production but it's enough for development testing and porting, etc. It is currently not too shabby but I am waiting for the real archit…

Something tells me Intel won't be so smug in 2 years. Apple has none of the constraints that tie the hands of Intel / AMD. Apple will move forward much faster than they can imagine. Looking at what they did the last few years should be proof of th…

Just in time for iOS 14 to be announced and Apple to squash the exploit. There are some definite good reasons to Jailbreak. But most of those have gone away since the early days. Now it's more about perhaps being able to run a Wi-Fi explorer and a…
