I’m not sure this is the most complementary of headlines for the #Flexbar. #Apple’s Touch Bar was almost as unloved as the disastrous Butterfly keyboard, and now both have long been excised from the MacBook lineup. #tech appleinsider.com/articles/…

NO! BAD #LENOVO!! You’ve been leaching away too much of the #ThinkPad’s DNA for far too long!!! Now you’re possibly going to take the TrackPoint and it’s associated buttons away from your loyal users?! Not a smart move. Let’s hope that this is truly just a rumor and not real. #tech #laptops liliputing.com/lenovo-th…

Wow! #Ayaneo, the premium handheld game console maker, has just unveiled their Ayaneo 3 #Windows gaming device and while it doesn’t appear that unique, it does have a neat gimmick. The controls are magnetically swappable. Just watch. #videogames #hardware www.youtube.com/watch

Wow. Good job making your customers think their computers were infected with a virus, ASUS. #stupid #capitalism #tech tech.slashdot.org/story/24/…

Interesting take on the mini gaming laptop, for sure, but it’s clear #GPD already own the premium marketplace for such devices with their superior controller layout. Just be sure to have plenty of disposable cash if you’re entertaining getting one. #videogames #laptops #tech liliputing.com/onexplaye…

Well, well, well… It seems that #Lenovo themselves have now cheekily “confirmed” that they will be announcing their first #SteamOS-based gaming handheld at #CES2025. Recent rumors and leaks have shown a Lenovo Legion Go S, a smaller device lacking detachable controllers. #videogames #tech www.theverge.com/2024/12/1…

This clever snap-on game controller for #MobilePhones blew up on #YouTube earlier this year, and it looked like it was going to happen, then things got a little quiet. It seems, however, that the #MCON team has managed to break through the wall they were stuck behind and, with help from #OhSnap, are going to be showing their latest version at #CES2025. I have to say, it’s looking fantastic! #videogames #tech www.youtube.com/watch

Well, this is a clever case for iPhone models 12 through 15. Using a Lightning or USB-C connection concealed in the bottom of the case, you can add up to 1TB of storage to your iPhone with the card slot conveniently hidden near the camera bump. #apple #tech the-gadgeteer.com/2024/12/1…

A little expensive, but it does make a statement and has the side benefit of making the #M4MacMini’s power button accessible (if you need that sort of thing). ZEERA’s MacForge aluminum case evokes the appearance of a tiny Mac Pro and just looks really cool. Sadly, there’s no option for wheels. #Apple #tech liliputing.com/zeera-mac…

Um… no. Ignore #TikTok boneheads are claiming that anyone can steal your data using #iPhone’s #AirDrop feature. Fabulists are suggesting you turn off non-existent options or that AirDrop can be used to walk past people and just grab all their credit cards. Don’t listen to these idiots. #apple #fakescams #conspiracytheories #bullshit appleinsider.com/articles/…
