MacPro said: I wonder how that success rate compares with the Google Play Store for Android users. What has me wondering is what will be the rates in the EU when users are able to side load apps. Just waiting for a sideloaded app to ste…

Tonight I may be re-installing macOS Monterey on my 2020 10-core i9 iMac. Upgrading from Monterey to Sonoma has been the most disaster-prone, bug-ridden MacOS I've ever used. It's like Apple decided that Intel-based Macs no longer deserve any att…

The article says the thief was a neighbor, and that they also planned on going back to the victim's house and steal the wife's car too. If the police did their job, victims wouldn't have to be the ones to approach the thieves.

I'd fire the employee for being that stupid/ignorant for leaving keys on the dashboard for the world to see. There's victim-shaming, and there's those just asking for it.

MacOS Sonoma has been the worst MacOS release for Intel-based machines ever. I'm still on MacOS 14.2 because each point-release update has result in bricking my 2020 iMac and my having to reinstall MacOS, and only with a USB install drive. Headlin…

I think the potential is great, but the interaction with the patient I find problematic. I think it's strange for a doctor to talk to a patient while wearing this headset. It's just seems cold and distant. The interface though is amazing. I know…

Considering all the moronic behavior that YouTubers are doing with the AVP, it comes to no surprise that YouTube wants to get into the game. It is certainly making quite a bit of revenue from all those engagements. It's pathetic that we live in a s…
