Begin met with Biden, and vague reports described some sort of angry exchange. Begin’s recollections of that meeting were reported at the time in a mainstream Israeli newspaper, Yedioth Aharonot. Some of the details of what Begin recalls Biden telling him are genuinely shocking, but they seem to now be largely forgotten in Israel — especially a hypothetical Biden floated about the United States bombing cities in Canada. “If attacks were launched from Canada into the US,” Biden remarked, “everyone here would have said, ‘Attack all the cities of Canada, and we don’t care if all the civilians get killed.’”
It seems really clear it was an argument against using an absurd example.
UPDATE: Appleinsider states that a Larger 32-inch iMac Pro is rumored to hit store shelves in late 2024 appleinsider.com/…/larger-32-inch-imac-pro-rumore…...
Apple didn’t have a claim to all small size screens, they were the only ones who ordered them in the first place. So this isn’t their fault, though I do resent them dropping the 13 mini so suddenly (I had expected to pick one up after this announcement, but they cost the same as the newest pro…)
The small phone project is looking for existing screens so they don’t have to design and pay for the tooling to produce them.
someone's bringing me their imac, a new brother wifi-capable mfc printer, and their dsl modem/wifi router combo unit. in theory, i should be able to hook up the printer to the wifi (the mac should already be configured for it) and set it up here, even without the modem part connected to the internet (its wifi and local lan will...
Mostly printing just works on Mac. If not go to Settings (click the apple icon in the menu bar), Printers, and yet to manually add the printer. Macos usually grabs the driver’s and everything for you.
If you’re using a brother wireless and it acts weird with the mac, update the printer firmware. That usually resolves issues (it’s very rare I have any issues though).
I’ve been a Mac user for 15 years and my printer is over 10 years old now but still works perfectly. It gives my wife’s PC hell though…
I went against a VP on a major project I expected to fail. They started compiling documentation against me and I’ve been anticipating getting fired the last few weeks.
Shit just hit the fan with that project (in the exact way I expected) and my going against the grain made us the only team on schedule and we’re way under budget. So now instead of having my head locked into the guillotine I’m being asked to share our strategy and get the other teams back on track
I’m almost in the black, so what’s going to happen is chumps like me will see the trend, buy more, and then the smarter chumps will dump a bunch and I’ll be in the red again.
I don’t really hope his grandchildren inherit his debt, that’s not fair to them. I don’t know anything about them.

Solidly a “were using AI to do cool things, but those cool things don’t improve our core business” project.
This product only makes sense to exist where Google is trying to show it gets AI, once it becomes more commoditized and integrated with language apps then they’ll be forced to confront the fact that teaching is not just translation, and the expert knowledge of language apps will beat them.
I’m bearish on the longevity of this one.

Hello everyone. With more than 15k subscribers, I’m sure the Apple community has some great experiences to share with others. My question this week is, “What was the most clever way you’ve ever used an Apple product to solve a problem?”
When I got my mortgage I needed to get approval and collate all our documents in one night, I just told Automator to grab all the pdfs in a folder and merge them, it took like 2 minutes to get all our signed paperwork done (after the reading and signing). Plus then I knew I didn’t forget anything we needed, everything on the folder was combined.
I’ve used it for a ton of other things over the years, like bulk photo editing for websites to taking a photo every 5 seconds for a timelapse.
I still find it less complicated to bulk rename files than using Python or bash.

Gordon Berry, the founder and leader of the Save the Children Convoy, recently gave a speech at the convoy’s Casselman base camp where he advocated jailing police and politicians, replacing Canada’s system of government and referenced themes associated with QAnon conspiracy theories.
You’re not “guilty by association” when you’re officially representing a group calling for treason and sedition. You’re just guilty of treason and sedition.
And fuck Arnold Viersen, the guy should lose his status for inviting known extremists to parliament for not reason other than causing a disruption.
