Doing some #Apple tech support for sister-in-law.
#Macbook ~2021 would power on, show the Apple logo, chime and then go blank - power off? It is known that its battery was going south, but if it is plugged in to its #USBC char…

Don’t joke around with #Siri AI. I was saying “I’m falling off a cliff” and she began calling emergency services. #Apple

I thought this was parody. Apparently not.

Ich habe seit Jahren nichts mehr von #Apple gekauft, habe aber ein Gerät, dass ich tatsächlich noch auf #iOS27.2 updaten konnte. Zum einen war dazu 12GiB freier Speicher nötig, zum anderen war Download per #Wifi (stabi…

Just used an iPhone Duo for the first time. It’s a nice device, really feels like an evolution. I would definitely say I’m still an iPhone and iPad user, but I love where technology is going. #apple

macOS 27 is a buggy mess on M1 hardware

But it gets worse - the ONLY WAY to turn off this "feature", and use the iMac camera (that you actually paid for as part of your computer purchase), is to disable it ON THE iPHONE. You can not shut it off from your Mac. I had to borrow my wife's iPhone so I could carefully walk my mom through finding and changing the setting on her phone.
Making an iPhone hijack your iMac's camera BY DEFAULT is just insane. Does nobody at Apple think through the consequences of these "features"?

The iphone duo is an expensive joke, with a price tag of € 2300 ( for a phone...), i don't see a serious market in Europe for this device.

I never wanted a touchscreen Mac. I've always said - I only have two hands. Now I need two for the keyboard, one for the mouse, one for the screen. Not at the same time, I know...

Every time I turn on log forwarding on my Mac, I am reminded why I turned it off last time 🙂

I notice that publishers like #Amazon and #Apple are careful not to use the term "AI" for their AI slop audiobooks, calling it "virtual voices" and "digital narration" instead. Don't be fooled, fellow writers, it's AI taking the hard work of professional narrators. If you don't want your work replaced with slop, don't use AI voices for your books or AI graphics for your covers.
Hire real human narrators like @… instead 👏

Latest mad science. macOS clone of something useful I use on Linux all the time. A widget that sits in the task bar, runs a command regularly, and displays the output next to an emoji. I use it to tell me if there are updates ready, but can be used for anything. Enjoy.
