Eldest child has just picked up a MacBook Neo for use at University. Lovely piece of hardware. Okay, so I'd personally still go for my M1 MacBook Pro but I like how they've done it. However, macOS 26 Tahoe looks oversized and unfinished and it's got far too many interface glitches. The huge […]

Recently I read a post by some jackhole techbro who wants a default automatic feed algorithm here just like Big Social™. Opening the door for AI bullshit is not even the worst part of this idea. Folks, all of us here ARE the algorithm. Personal curation is a feature, not a bug. We make […]
