I'm sitting here on a 2012 imac with a fusion drive. This drive never seemed to give much performance but it absolutely tanked once it converted to APFS. The computer became unusable to the point that I had to buy an external SSD and u

I want to stay informed about the world but I'm unable to read the highly editorialized doom scrollers. I'm tired of the news cheering for the hurricane and I'm tired of pointless feel good stories to bring "happy news&q

I’m very happy with less targeted advertising. I realize the predominant model right now is free with advertising. It’s not a happy place.

The address space of IPv6 can certainly make things like sensor nets ubiquitous. 5G will certainly drive ipv6 more i think.

I've seen downvotes that are applied to factually correct information but that goes against the herd. A simple rebuttal would suffice as we tend to do in the technical stories. Political stories on this site are insufferable.

I once took a 5 year old laptop that was out of warranty. The battery was swollen so they fixed that for free. They also replaced the display panel because they noticed the hinge was a little loose. They also fixed a dead ipod touch for me

I traded in my iBook g4 around then. It was just too slow and it couldn’t keep up with basic things we all take for granted. The laptop was the fastest around when it came out but everything changed so quickly that decade. Not being able to

It is a respiratory disease. I think the real news here is that the internet is learning about viruses for the first time. The problem with this drip feed of shitposts on reddit and science articles in the news is that we end up with a very
