Go look at the editorial policy from Ars. Lee just writes like that; it's his style, it always has been.

This keeps getting posted and is not true. Rosetta is still present and working. It throws a deprecation warning notice but otherwise runs fine. It's macOS 28 that will no longer r…

Have a TrueNAS server at home with a bunch of drives in a RAID-Z array. Backups go there. My pictures, which are probably my single most important item, are also there but get cros…

Just give them all ACME catalogs and watch the problem solve itself.

I do this same thing too when building archives in macOS I will unpack on Linux later.

I use FontAwesome. I bought FontAwesome subscriptions for my team. Love the product. “We released new icons” (or a new version) is a message that has exactly zero information conte…

So many naysayers. I love it! So what if it doesn’t come from the Brut region of France and thus it’s just sparkling cement, it looks great and is clearly a labor of love.

First line of the readme: Non-functional implementation work-in-progress framework code for getting HDR10 working under X11.

Love my APP3, upgraded from APP2 and have only one regret... no Comply Foam tips available yet. Why does Apple not go all-in on memory foam, I dunno, but at least the APP2 version …

I was affected as well. My IAH->SEA 7:10 PM Central flight took off 4 hours late. It’s 4 AM central and we’re just descending to land in Seattle. Communication from the airline was…

I use Safari (admittedly, with Private Cloud and a few tracking-blocking extensions) and get bombarded with Cloudflare's 'prove you are human' checkbox several times an hour. It's …

The website generally looks good, but the font in the headings is weird. What is up with the "d" in it?!

Looks like the end boss of yak shaving. Very fun, silly idea and a great implementation.

Oh, man, Christian, are you going to do Discord next? Because it’d fit the pattern to a T. (This is a joke) I was a huge fan of Apollo and genuinely appreciate your UX design and a…

I was there a few weeks ago! I had always wanted to visit, so it was a bucket list item for me and I absolutely loved it. The conditions in which people worked tirelessly while try…

No parole in the Federal system. There's (some) time off for good behavior.

I was a big Tableau champion at our org. Lots of dashboards, led a user group, was the go-to expert for a while (think 10 years ago). For us, what killed it was the pricing. They g…

It's better-than-free money. The 0% interest rate means, accounting for inflation, you're getting paid to use Apple's money instead of your own. I can afford the lump sum, but it's…

Allow me to quote myself "Even for a technological tour de force, 5K is a lot of dough. If I used it, and loved it, I’d keep it. But for discomfort, actual eye pain, looking throug…

OP here. What the sibling comment said. The built-in speakers are fantastic, and like many other Apple enthusiasts I own Airpods Pro already as well if I need isolation.

OP here. I mean the passthrough cameras, and I mean they suck compared to the expectation of this being "AR, but rendered in VR" (I also have a 'first impressions' post that goes i…

OP here. I own a Quest 2 as well. It's a toy compared to the AVP, but it is more comfortable. I agree with your impression - these things will get addressed, but not within the ret…

I deeply disagree with the author. Costs are predictable from one year to the next, true; but you are beholden to the vendor, and the vendor may even effectively hold your data hos…
