What the hell is that font, Apple? Is this a new design trend? It reminds me of when we opened a PageMaker document on our Mac back in the day, and some fonts were missing from the System Folder. Maybe they should install a copy of Suitcase? 🤦🏻♂️

A bug in the Apple Shortcuts editor on the Mac. One of so many. Can you imagine if Apple allowed third-party Shortcut editors to create shortcuts? That would be awesome.

I’m tempted to start a sticker collection and put them on my M2 MacBook Air. I’ve never done such a thing because I always keep in mind that I’ll resell my Mac, and my sticker taste might not match the buyer’s taste. I’ll probably start with the M-Series stickers from Basic Apple Guy.

Come on, Adobe. Ten processes for Create Cloud, consuming half a GB of RAM? Because I wasn't really using it on my MacBook Air, it's gone now.

The M4 iPad Pro battery health after 18 month of use and 127 cycle count: 87%. I consider this to be bad. Battery life on this device is not good at all to be frank.

I no longer use the Mac App Store to update my apps on my Mac; I prefer using the brew “mas outdated” and “mas upgrade” commands instead.
