Check out some of the apps that I use to customize the macOS experience

As we all know, cloud services such as Dropbox, Google Drive and others are all very convenient ways to share…

Mastodon has recently added a feature called “author attributions” and here’s a quick guide on what they are and how they’re used

Apple’s new Image Playground app was made available in the latest round of betas for iPadOS and iOS 18.2 as well as macOS 15.2 last week and I’ve (finally) got access to play around with it a bit.

Over the weekend I got the chance to check out all of the new hardware that was announced at Apple’s “It’s Glowtime” event. I figured I would just write down some thoughts and ideas I had about the different products here, as some of them are things that I haven’t heard a ton of other people saying.

First and foremost, the Fediverse is not a technology. It’s not ActivityPub, it’s not WordPress, or Mastodon, or Threads. The Fediverse is an idea. It’s the idea that things can be better—that people’s ideas are valuable, and that those people should be able to express those ideas however they see fit.

Sorry, “Core Ultra 200V” as Intel is calling it. Anyway, these chips are seemingly Intel’s “thin and light” chips and not for their larger, more powerful applications, as evidenced by the fact that you’re limited to 8 cores and 32GB of RAM. There are people out there who really think that Intel’s got something here, and it would seem that they’re decently right. It’s refreshing to see at least something interesting from Intel since Apple broke up with them and started releasing the Apple Silicon chips, but I think Intel is simultaneously shooting themselves in the foot with this release.

I really like the app, I was really excited for it to come out just over a year ago, I followed all of the reporting around it. I want it to be better, but I feel like Instagram is going to have it save Threads from itself in order for things to improve.

I first got my 15″ MacBook Air M2 about a year ago so I figured I would give you my thoughts on the laptop after 1 year of use from everything to being a full time student to creative tasks to full-scale development.
