120 The New Format
Manage episode 509529889 series 1107000
Today starts Marc's new format of reading headlines of tech articles and summarizing them more quickly so we can breeze through the backlog:
- We discuss flaws in battery packs that cause EVs to set on fire, and the goal of making designs (and people) that are more tolerant to faults
- Apple shocks the world by throwing us a bone, allowing us to repair screens on our own iPhones... buy why is it pointless and also what's the ulterior motive?
- Apple's "mea culpa", offering MacBook Pros with actual Pro features again, like HDMI and SD cards. They also got rid of the horrific TouchBar, a tiny screen that danced around and taunted you when you needed to press a Function key.
- Marc's rant about "Pro" everything
- Big Media panicking over Substack, a platform that allows independent journalists to be independent, and lets readers subscribe to the journalists they like.
- Yet another GoDaddy breach, this time 1 million websites left wide open. They'll try and blame your computer, and blame you for not going back in time and buying their "protection plan". Learn how to abandon them.
Let me know what you think of the new format, and buy a preview edition of my next book at the bottom of: https://thecomputerexorcist.com/edutainment/book/
