Am I the only one on here that actually bought the Sony minidisc with a scsi interface? I had it plugged into my Mac G3 and was used for backing up video projects that I was shooting on miniDV tape at the time. I also used it for playing mu

I did a pram reset and have had zero issues. First day with the machine with a 27” 4K monitor and temps were soaring, fans going crazy with just chrome, sublime and vagrant running. PRAM reset and fans only turn on when something actually i

This has been my go to for about a year now. I have set up a couple templates that I use as blank pages. I keep four notebooks: one for each my day job, my side projects, house renovations and one for notes at conferences or when taking a c
