More to do with the fact that they can't upgrade to IOS 26.x.

Odds are they could fix it in IOS 18 also. But it's all part of the planned hardware obsolescence scheme.

YubiKey for the world!

At those prices, I'll buy myself a new gaming console and a loaded (for my needs) Mac Studio M3 Ultra for desktop. :cool:

Didn't help with Micron getting out of the consumer business environment. They are targeting AI infrastructure & data center needs primarily now. The Crucial consumer offering(s) are being shut down. I recently purchased several NVMe drives for my OWC enclosure and the price of the drives had...

When a big time right-winger like Karl Rove starts sounding alarm bells... folks need to be listening that depend on more than the MAGA cult votes. Current elections that have been going on should be alarming to ANY person running in an area that is not cult infused.

If wishes were fishes, no one would go hungry. Until then, they are shooting blanks.

And all doing this crap now does is give ammo to the MAGA faithful to push for their other cult members to turn out to vote in the mid-terms. It is stupidity on the part of those doing it. They KNOW they won't get anywhere with it, but it makes them feel good and they ignore the impact it may...

After 7'ish years of being "good"... the coders decided to close their long game. https://www.koi.ai/blog/4-million-browsers-infected-inside-shadypanda-7-year-malware-campaign Just one reason I only use an extension if I absolutely have to have it, which so far has been numbering zero.

I guess you aren't familiar with what the term special means in the south. :eek:;) and before folks get upset... my mother was a special ed teacher and I regularly stopped in to talk to the kids in her class when I worked patrol in that city. It wasn't unusual for parents back then to...

TimeCapsule is one of the nicest backups that I've run across, especially at the price (free). You can do full restores from it, migrate your data to a new computer automatically (programs and data) without having to pick/choose or you can even go into the TimeCapsule and pick individual files...

Sounds like he uses a "special" program to do backups. Miraculously Apple provides the ability to do TimeCapsule backups to an external hard drive or media. His failure to do so is ALL on him. Also, remind us.... doesn't the equivalent happen on Windows (blue screen/boot issue)? In fact...

Honestly... he was too frigging old when he was elected. It's the same "pride" issue that struck Biden. But the question is, would J.D. (Jerkoff Dickhead) Vance be any better?

Dayum.... this new Studio stomps the old Mac Mini and is faster than the Dell Optiplex running my processing software. Only issue is should have gotten the larger storage option when I purchased, but with the new dock coming in I'll have 8TB of storage available on NVMe via the ThunderBolt 5...

The impeachment filing was a mistake. There is ZERO chance of it going anywhere and all it does is prove the idiocy of certain politicians of playing Don Quixote. All it does is inflame the radical Trump supporters and gives them ammo to try to get out more voters in the mid-terms.
