Your Local Gym wants you paying attention to your fitness, not mindless doomscrolling whilst on the equipment.

When you lie on your CV about having previous sheepdog experience ...

A perfect example of a tree point landing.

The word for today is "enslopify".

It's official, Apple's killed off the super-expensive Mac Pro & has no plans to replace it. 9to5mac.com/2026/03/26/a... (Who wants a machine with slots in it these days anyway?) See, @nanoraptor.danamania.com has the right idea, this is what the Mac Studio should have been:

Dagnabbit, I want a PowerBook G4 17in again, but there's nothing local on eBay nor Gumtree and I'm not going to fork over the usual US$400+ all the foreign eBay sellers seem to want to send theirs Down Under. Any US/CA followers willing to trans-ship for me?

What's your favourite Mac laptop, asks @jeffgeerling.com in today's vid. The PBG3 Pismo ("A Ferrari in an Armani suit") holds 2nd place but, like Jeff, the Air 11in (2012) is the best ever. I see @nanoraptor.danamania.com gets a nod with her PowerBook G5's. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpPI...

If this guy can use a photo I took then you can too.

Unboxing the #MacBookNeo Citrus at work, all gather round: "I've never seen a colour like it," says one. "Obviously you've never changed the nappy of a nursing three week old baby," says mother of two. Silence. "You've totally ruined this for me now," says ex-happy Neo owner.

I think I'm going to be violently, copiously sick. Finder Neo with Clarus on a leash?

News just in: Myrient, the server with the largest collections of ROMS & old console titles on the web, is closing at the end of March. myrient.erista.me

Could this be Apple's "Fiftieth Anniversary Macintosh"? (Personally, I don't really care what the FAM ends up looking like but they'd better use the whole 'Macintosh' name.)

Sorry Mr. Beast, but your plan on influencing teens by buying the 'Step' banking app isn't going to work. "Dad, he's the Elon Musk of Youtubers, I don't want anything to do with that."

QTP with a trio of awesomeness!

Canard! Pato! Anka! Ow!

America, you're so screwed.

Pretty much.

Australians still sporting an iPhone 8, 8 Plus or iPhone X are advised *NOT* to update to iOS v16.7.13, released Tuesday by Apple. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...

Calling all floppies, calling all floppies ... David Pogue needs some help. He wants to include an audio file of a Macintosh floppy drive in action, but so far hasn't been able to find anything on the web. Can anyone help? (FB shortlink: tinyurl.com/yevdashe )

Remember when people started putting their iPhones up on FBM/eBay because they still had Fortnite running on them? Same thing's happening again but now they're advertising "Still runs iOS 18", according to a segment on NPR. When mainstream media goes "iOS 26 sucks" it's really bad.

The tough part about improvising a home cinema on the #ISS was finding a spot where everyone would be comfortable ... for varying degrees of comfortable. "There's not much space out in space!"

So you want to work in IT, do you?

Y'know what I miss most on MacBooks? Socketed RAM & storage? No, 98% of laptops go to e-waste with the config they shipped with. Glowing logo in the lid? Close; it's not a Mac if the logo doesn't glow. What I miss most is the sleep LED.

I herb you people like puns.

Now I do.

The latest issue of PALEBOY - The Magazine of Dirty Archaeology - has just hit the rock-stands.

It won't be long before they unveil Microsoft Copilot Copilot, a service to explain which Copilot-branded product is the one you're actually looking for.

If this isn't a @nanoraptor.danamania.com special, then it is definitely inspired by her work.

Today's juicy truthiness:

There are usually good reasons for not having some third-rate PC shop repair your iMac.

Back in 1975, if you read the right comics, you could buy a Star Trek communicator, hand phaser AND tricorder for a mere $3.29. There were flying models of the Enterprise and the Klingon battle-cruiser, too, only $6.95.

Today's tech truthiness:

Someone has lifted the QuickTimeVR movie files from 1994's "Star Trek: The Next Generation Interactive Technical Manual", upscaled them then built an in-browser replica of the ITM's "Tour" module. mijofr.github.io/st-panorama/ #StarTrek

Some kids are just too sharp. A Trekkie friend got this delightful garden ornament for Christmas from his teenage son. Who knew that you could buy Star Trek inspired gnomes!

I hope everyone is having a happy treksmas.

Why is tech costing so much more these days? I'm glad you asked.

New issue with #macOS #Tahoe 26.2: UpdateBrain doesn't check for sufficient free space before performing the update/upgrade; if there isn't enough, you get a "corrupt firmware file" error and the machine is now bricked, neither DFU Revive nor DFU Restore works, giving a "libusbrestore error:21".
