Yeah, everyone has to find their own way of organising, I guess. For me, there are too many different little projects that it would get messy throwing them all in one folder. And they’re so varied that I couldn’t think of one single “theme” or topic for most of them. Nothing I would remember a week later anyways.

Same, but by language, e.g. Development/Python.

It’s time you all got over how the Magic Mouse charges

Only a couple of minutes of charging should give you eight-to-nine hours of battery life.

There’s dozens of us! Dozens! (Switched to Apple after 12 years of being an Android enthusiast.)

But when you report obvious fake accounts that merely exist for 5 days, follow 5000 people already and only have 3 followers themselves but a nice spammy link in their profile, they allegedly don’t violate any terms of services…

I’m on the 18.1 Beta and battery life on my 16 Pro is better than it ever was on my 13 Pro before.

I’m so glad I’ve spent my 2 or 3 bitcoins back in the early years for some 60€ software…

I’m using News Explorer. One-time purchase, and syncs your feeds and read/unread status between macOS and iOS/ipadOS.

Is that an AI photo at the top of the article? Or which Palm Pilot model is that?

Here’s another discussion about this.

This Glance?

Yes, finally, cops don’t need to go to an Apple store undercover or need to buy their iPhone on the black market.

The secret is finally out!

Cops use iPhones, too.

Yep, the article is about Apple showing cops how to use the tech, what apps the police in other countries is using to support their daily work and the police evaluating the use of more Apple tech in their daily duty (Carplay, Vision, etc.).

There’s nothing about spying on normal Apple users or Apple handing out your personal data to the cops in that article.

Clickbait headline.

Oh, wow, in this case this is indeed the better tactic.

Limiting charging to only 80% doesn’t do that much. It about halves the battery degradation but that’ll only be a noticeable difference after 3+ years where most people either get their battery replaced or get a new phone anyways.

Yep, we have desks at work with a built in AC socket and USB-A and USB-C for charging phones. Guess what? The USB-C only delivers 5V and thus is unsuitable to power Apple’s travel charger for MagSafe and Apple Watch.

Same with our £600 Dyson lamps. They all come with an USB-C outlet. But, again, it’s only providing 5V, no PD.

Apart from that, I’m also pretty happy with USB-C everything. Even though I still think Lightning is the better design in terms of robustness of the socket. No thin plastic lip that can break apart.

Your iOS devices should appear in Finder if they’re either connected via cable or in the same WiFi. Click the device to open the overview page in Finder. Drag&drop the .m4r file from another Finder window onto the overview page. The ringtone will be installed.

Yep, just do it in macOS using any audio editor, save up to 40 seconds as AAC M4A file, rename to .m4r and drag&drop onto your phone/iPad in Finder. Done.

The fear of naked (intact) female bodies, i.e. censoring of even the slightest nudity, when at the same time, it’s totally fine to have minors play computer games where they can dissect other humans in great bloody detail.

Oh, and chocolate that tastes like somebody barfed into it during manufacturing.

Kemie and Kina

I threw up a little…
