Found an old iPod yesterday over ten years old. Battery still worked. No need to buy new stuff at artificially high prices for years to come. Any thing made in 2024 should still be working fine in 2030. But, if we even are allowed to use the gear wi…

As these massive cuts or cancelling of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid hit the streets, we will soon see a new reality. Only the rich 1% folks will be able to support sick kids, parents and grand parents. The next booming industry will be ca…

A possible scenairo: Agent Orange laughed all the way to the bank to deposit those billionaire's million(s). dollar(s) checks. A few days later he screwed every one of their corporations with his tax scheme he calls tariffs. The guess is that in le…

An observation: It seems the little folks are always bending over and grabbing their socks while the uber rich open their pockets for the cash flow. Our future could look like Cuba where there are no new vehicles for the populace, home power is int…

This is not a five minute upgrade so allow perhaps 30 minutes depending on your "download from Apple" speeds and model of iPhone.

From personal experience, Musk desperately needs some competition to help control his greed in the prices he charges for services.

I have had a Platinum level Amex card since 1968. (Before it became Amex it was Patterson Travel Service) The number of places that accept the card has dwindled every year. It is our travel card for airline tickets and hotels and is the card to have…

So the latest release of 18.4 disables my ability to use the trigger mechanism of the App Store to check for updates on my iDevices. There has been no obvious updates to my apps and there are always updates available every morning.

Just my observation: in all of my Apple devices memory is being used in the amounts mentioned on both iOS, iPadOS and MacOS with AI supposedly turned off. If something is off, it is not using power or memory so AI is not really off. And Siri never s…

Folks, this is an Apple device and one pays dearly to play in the Apple world. Back in the early 1990s, Apple's IIfx was king of the Apple computer mountain. Fully loaded with 32Mb of third party memory, a very heavy 21" Radius color CRT monitor w…

These undocumented features are also known as bugs in the software.

A nervous nellie probably should not read AppleInsider and Mac Rumors. Just lower your expectations to ZERO and you will not be disappointed. The new stuff that was actually operational came out on the next generation device. The peanut gallery w…

Costs loss of money to fly Cook all over the world in the Apple private jet. Look at the names of the Directors on the Board. Ever wonder how many fly to the Board of Director's meeting in their own or company private jet. Many of these are conies w…

This fiasco reminds me of an incident at a Computer World in Chicago eons ago. I walked up to a display of a large hard drive with a clear cover. The heads were moving back and forth uniformly across the disk. After a minute or two, I asked the vend…

Make sure Apple's AI is turned off on ALL of your Apple devices. The bad news is that you have to check it is still OFF with any and every upgrade on every device. What a major unnecessary pain in the backside. They need to purge the incompetence …

The misleading advertising to entice sales and the hype of the move to 16GB of ram is now the minimum necessary for AI smells like a sewage plant poorly run. Apple needed the 16GB of ram minimum for years but put profit over customer approvals. Ev…

Big box stores sell 1.25” diameter wood circles about 5/16” thick. Three stuck to the bottom of a mini make it stable, have good air flow for cooling and the antenna has space for the WiFi signal to get in.

Back in the day of the IIfx in the early 90s which was a two core CPU, Photoshop was about the only game in town claiming to use multi processors. I did not see much difference when running the same job on my Iici. Adobe admitted they had not maste…

Great over view even for an old timer. As always happens just past the two week return window, Apple drops a surprise (well maybe already guessed but the drop date was unknown). Now the buyer's remorse can kick in. What is missing in this gr…

One will often see a little box perched high on a road side (including interstates) pole aimed down at the traffic. It reads newer vehicles ID as the vehicle passes by and transmits the information to wherever or whoever..
