Due to rising NAND prices, Apple takes inspiration from the original MacBook Air and ships the M5 generation of MacBooks with iPod hard drives instead of SSDs. Despite the slower speeds, they earned improved iFixit scores due to the better repairability.

My new favourite thing is to take portraits and then edit them to loosely resemble daguerreotype or ferrotype images from the 1800s.

LLMs are starting to mistake my photoshoot edits for actual historical images and it's kinda funny. This was shot with a modern digital camera with the subject edited onto a screenshot background from a video game, then edited in Photoshop.

I was playing Ocarina of Time when this eerie chanting began in the music and then stopped abruptly and I don't remember hearing it when I first played the game decades ago.
Turns out it was from an audio sample album Nintendo used but removed in later revisions of the game.

Found one of those ear cleaning sticks with a camera but instead of using it for its intended purpose, it turns out these make great wireless microscopes for electronics repair work. I could probably mount it to my soldering iron as a scope too!

Exactly 20 years ago, I received my first iPod as a Christmas gift in 2005. It's a 5th gen and has travelled with me everywhere. The iPod still has the original HDD and battery and still works.
What retro Christmas gifts do you still use today, and do they have any fun stories?
