Spilled Diet Coke into my 16” M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Apple store genius said I was the first damage/repair appointment for it they’d seen. 🥤👍

Woah. The last time we reported on a rumor from HitsDailyDouble
@HITSDD
was way back in 2001. They predicted a device called the iPod.

As of yesterday 85% of iOS visitors to

were on
#ios12
+. The oldest version of iOS recorded as visiting yesterday was iOS 4.0 which was released 8 years ago and the first to be called iOS.

Here is a static robots.txt file causing Safari to run at 86% CPU (M1 MacBook Pro, Safari 15.1). There's nothing weird about the robots.txt file, but Safari can somehow be left in a state where it churns the CPU on other pages.

For those not aware, Apple insisted “5 S” was the way to write the iPhone 5S. They relented after they realized that was friggin insane

Ok, I’ve felt like I’ve kept up pretty well with tech over the years. I get it. I’m on board with your new fangled whatever...

I’m a sucker for time loop movies (like Groundhog Day). Russian Doll on Netflix is a timeloop series. Wasn’t sure about it at the start but enjoyed it in the end. Only 8 episodes. 👍

Lots of last minute rumors on the notch. Whether it turns out to be true, last minute rumors / speculation / leaks were always the most entertaining part of
@MacRumors

lol. I actually had - but I gave it to Apple.
Domains that
@arnoldkim
owns that I learned about randomly over the years:
- : goes to his Twitter
- : anagram for his name (!)
- : redirects to MacRumors
Each one surprised me in some manner 😂
