Tomorrow marks four months using the new adorable M4 Mac mini. The biggest complaint in the reviews was the odd choice to put the power button on the bottom. I pushed it once to turn it on in December and I haven’t touched it again. So, that’s working ok for me.

It's foster Friday with Caleb! He LOVES toys and will chew them to bits in no time.He also does parkour professionally, jumping on the couch, the pellet container, and even his foster person’s shoe rack. After exercise time he's ready to rest. #FosterFriday #FosterHomesRock #FosterBunny #AdoptMe

The new Mac Studio looks cool, but I’m still happy with my M4 Pro Mini purchase from December. The loaded up Mini is $500+ less than a similar spec Studio (memory/storage) with a few less cores. It’ll do nicely for me.

Now that Apple is making its own cellular modem, does this mean we might finally get a cellular enabled Mac? That’d be a ‘finally’ for sure.

This is the most bizarre design choice Apple has made in a while. I didn’t realize it, but the SE 3 (2022) doesn’t have MagSafe either, the only other phone released in the last 5 years to omit MagSafe.
