Vego Kitchen Composter review: keep food scraps out of the trash
For a bit more than $200 I bought my wife a 65 gallon tumbling composter for the backyard that uses zero electricity but doesn't have a fancy app.
For your typical garden, 1 gallon of compost doesn't do much. Just seems like a lot of money to make your own compost (a bit at a time).

New Genmoji ad showcases creations that definitely were not made with Apple Intelligence
To be honest, the dice isn't 12 sides and only the number 2 seems to be an actual number -- the other sides just have odd nonsense symbols.ihatescreennames said:“Clock with eyes nose and mouth” generated a clock face with those features. “Clock that can talk” just gave me a clock.
“Chair that can walk” gives me images of a chair, but changing it to “Chair with robotic legs and feet” generated chairs with robot legs, but not like in the ad. I tried “human legs and feet” and “humanoid legs and feet” but those also gave me just simple chairs.
No matter how I phrase it I can’t get a twelve-sided die that actually looks good. I either get a regular six-sided die or I get something that maybe has twelve “sides” but they aren’t even and nobody would think it was a die, it’s just sort of an odd shape. Also, even the six-sided die it generates has odd dimples of different sizes.
OK, I tired again with “Die with 12 even sides, numbered” and got this:
So, it seems like maybe we actually can generate a lot of what’s in the ad if the phrasing is correct and the phrasing in the song is very simplified, not necessarily inaccurate.

New Genmoji ad showcases creations that definitely were not made with Apple Intelligence
"12 sided dice" and "12 sided dice with numerals" both generated an odd multi-sided dice with unintelligible symbols or incomplete dots on the sides. Seems like it should be a straightforward request to get a 12 sided dice with numbers on it.lipnorth said:I was able to recreate the tomato spy in 10 seconds with the prompt “tomato spy in trechcoat” -
Hack upgrades Mac Studio internal SSD for less than half of Apple's prices
Not sure about other states (or countries) but (in California) upgrading a removable part in a computer does not invalidate the warranty unless the process or part you used caused the damage/failure. So if I upgrade my SSD in a PC and then months later a RAM module goes bad, my warranty is not invalid and the manufacturer is still on the hook for repairing the RAM failure.

Trump tariffs will raise prices, but Apple has set the table to avoid the worst of it
The "incoming administration" pool of voters had a majority of uneducated white male voters from Red states. 'Nuf said. As in his previous term, the rich will thrive and the middle/low income will survive/suffer. I've heard some Trump voters literally ask "What's a tariff?" Yet they checked the Trump box on their ballot.mpantone said:
These sort of policies always disproportionally impact the low income segment of the population. If you're a professional (doctor, lawyer, engineer), you might not even notice unless you are in the habit of upgrading all of your mobile devices frequently. Many low-income people don't have a short device upgrade cycle anyhow.Xed said:Apple will be fine, it's the regular consumers who will suffer as a result. The less money you have the more this will impact you.
But hey, people had their reasons for their choice in selecting the incoming administration. They will have to live with the repercussions for the next four years. I'm sure they all thought through things very carefully before casting their ballots.
