  • Apple releases iOS 17.0.3 & iPadOS 17.0.3 with overheating fixes

    I wonder if this bug is also responsible for the sudden increase in power consumption (battery drain) noticed across various iPhone models since updating to iOS 17. Sure would be nice.

  • Apple releases iOS & iPadOS 17.0.2, watchOS 10.0.2 to select devices

    Wow!  Another update?  …and all three versions in just one week!
    This iOS 17 launch has surely been messy.
    It’s a good thing I trust Apple, or I would’ve thought they were slipping.
    🤞

  • 16GB vs. 32GB -- Maximize a Mac's performance by choosing the right amount of memory

    ChatGPT prompt:
    16GB vs. 32GB -- Maximize a Mac's performance by choosing the right amount of memory

    Reply:
    Choosing between 16GB and 32GB of RAM for a Mac depends on your specific needs and intended use cases. 16GB is generally sufficient for most everyday tasks such as web browsing, word processing, and light media editing. It's a good amount for typical multitasking as well.

    32GB, on the other hand, offers a performance advantage for more resource-intensive activities like professional video editing, 3D rendering, and heavy multitasking involving multiple demanding applications. It can be especially useful for users who frequently run virtual machines or work with large datasets.

    Consider your workflow and the kinds of tasks you'll be performing to determine which amount of memory will best maximize your Mac's performance.
    ……etc……

  • Repair experts weigh in on AirPods Max condensation complaints

    Got mine in the first batch in December 2020. Already in January filed a customer complaint about this condensation issue, with pictures and everything.

    The areas behind the magnetic ear pads were soaking wet on both left and right sides. How did I find out? They started to stink. They stank of old foul water more than a meter away. I used to be a DJ for many years, and I’ve never had headphones stinking before. And you wouldn’t like to know where those headphones had been. The only difference these days is that I now have a shaved head, as opposed to before when I had long hair.

    After much complaining to Apple about this, the headphones suddenly started to behave erratically. Pairing wouldn’t work and I had to factory reset the phones several times each day. After that, Apple agreed to take them in. What did they do? They returned the same headphones together with a pair of new magnetic pads. That’s it (!!!)

    Do I still use the headphones? Not a chance 🙊

    But Carplay doesn’t offer a romantic fart in the glow of a fireplace.
