A story from #9to5Mac reporting on a report from #Samsung confirms earlier rumors that #Apple likely won’t be shipping #OLED #MacBookPro machines this year, but in 2026. And the #MacBookAir might not see the upgrade until 2029. #tech #news #supplychain 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…

The #UK’s #surveillance apparatus creeps from the void like Cthulhu hungering for a midnight snack. Note that in this order it is #unlawful to reveal to the public that they’re doing it to us… and I mean us because that power extends outside of the UK. #dystopia mjtsai.com/blog/2025…

I can’t code myself out of a paper bag, but I know the value of the skill of #programming and of #opensource, so good on #Apple for open sourcing #Swift Build. Now can you open source Mac OS Classic? Tim?… TIM?! #tech #news 9to5mac.com/2025/02/0…

If you don’t like the power coming on when you open the lid on your #MacBookPro #Apple has explained how to disable it. It takes a bit of work in the Terminal.app, but anyone should be able to do it if they follow the instructions. #tech #howto www.macworld.com/article/2…

Well, I’m not sure how much of a procedure this actually is. I generally prefer more conclusive steps, like… oh, I don’t know, having an Update Firmware button in the settings? #Apple #airpods #tech #howto 9to5mac.com/2025/01/2…

I’m so up for this. #Apple DOES need to update their paid storage tiers, but not for the suggested tiers of the column. We have Apple One Family for up to 5 with a meager 200GBs for $26 a month. The storage should be bumped up to 500 or 750GB. #icloudplus #internet 9to5mac.com/2025/01/2…

If you’ve got an #M4MacMini and your curious about some interesting use cases, you might find Wesley Hilliard’s review on Apple Insider a source of ideas. #apple #mac #projects #homelab #tech appleinsider.com/articles/…

Ugh. More #Microsoft bullshit to deal with. This is a few days old as I’m catching up on my news feeds but is important to know if you’re one of the unlucky ones using #MicrosoftEdge on #Windows 10 or 11 (or just 11 in general). Switch to #Linux or #Apple already! mjtsai.com/blog/2025…

It’s a toaster… for your iPhone 14/15/16… and it only costs $570, but only if you buy the bundle of the “toaster” and one case. Though it doesn’t charge your phone, it just swaps in a fresh battery. Baby steps on the way to robot domination. Whee… #WeirdCES #CES2025 #tech www.macworld.com/article/2…

I suggest you just #read the #books. Don’t bother with the series. #Apple spent a tanker-full of money to make a terrible non-adaptation. They took some ideas, mixed it all up, cut out a bunch, and invented a lot of new crap that superficially resembles #IsaacAsimov’s seminal #scifi works. www.polygon.com/sci-fi/50…
