Really not impressed with the current EOFY sale offers for tech products. Was hoping I'd be able to get myself a few decent discounts on the NAS I want to set up, plus a new SSD for the laptop, but nothing so far is catching my eye.

First words holding the M4 iPad Pro: “holy **** that’s thin.”

Second words, half a minute later: “that’s just absurdly thin.”

Third words, another half a minute later: “the new Magic Keyboard is so much nicer!” Thinner, lighter, better materials 🤩

This is a big upgrade 👍

Seems #EnergyAustralia is fubar’d. Website dead, power outage here. Seeing #Citipower reporting #outage, guessing they’re the actual supplier. Guess I’ll try and go back to sleep after muting the UPSes.

Gamers need to start “feeling comfortable” with not playing Ubisoft games.

@dimillian Just been testing the mute functionality in Ice Cubes, and muting a user doesn’t remove them from my timeline if they were boosted there. Bug or design? Either way, doesn’t seem expected behaviour. 🐞

Just came across a weird #EasterEgg in a new #Anker Prime 20,000 mAh Power Bank: while playing with the single button to cycle through display/function options, the display suddenly switched to something like a couple of eyes (sort of ^ ^ but curved), which animated a little before changing to the Battery Information screen for a few seconds only before then switching off. Definitely deliberate animation rather than glitch.
Can’t reproduce, not seeing anything else online, really curious if anyone else has seen or heard of this? Would appreciate boosts for reach!

Well this is new… no way to add a #Microsoft #Exchange account on iOS without effectively losing control of the device!

The latest #HumbleBundle offering of Vampire: The Masquerade Month of Darkness include some physical goods at top tier, sounds good, ships to AU, I’m sure they offer reasonable shipping right? Bundle is $62, but still good value.
Shipping…
Is more than the cost of the frigging bundle.
I can buy the main physical items of the bundle + actual normal shipping cost for less than the cost of shipping for this thing. I know what shipping options there to AU and these guys are making no effort.

Long shot, but any chance anyone around the #Melbourne area might be interested in #adopting a #cat? Desperately trying to re-home some. Please boost for reach!

Idea for new security measure for iPhones: auto-lock and disable biometrics if phone goes out of range of Apple Watch. Yes/no #InfoSec

My old iPhone 11 Pro is still capable of getting over 200mbps speed over 4G/LTE.
I’m seeing reports of average 5G speeds of 200mbps on latest tech and people seem to be finding that impressive. Am I missing something here? #speed #cellular #5G

Been sitting on an iPhone 11 Pro for years, not been anything to justify the upgrade. The switch to USB-C combined with my current phone’s lightning port dying is really the only thing that’s getting me to an iPhone 15… kinda disappointing. #AppleEvent

Keyboard issue with No Man's Sky on Linux?

Has anyone playing on Linux tried to use the Text Formatting Guide?

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/qv6gy7/comprehensive_text_style_formatting_guide/

When I try to do it on Linux, every time I type < it gets replaced with >. So I can't do symbols or colors etc. I tested on my desktop Xubuntu (fails), steam deck (works fine using virtual keyboard), and windows 10 pc (works fine).

I am using a standard generic 105 key keyboard, the < key works elsewhere.

Anyone catch what’s written on #Olga’s jersey? Could see some faint black lines after she scored the goal, but couldn’t make it out. #FIFAWWC #ESPvENG @wwc

Any chance anyone has a copy of the previous version of #Zoom’s Terms & Conditions? Or even better, anyone got a diff? #InfoSec

Am I alone in just wanting a nice ultra-portable 11” #MacBook Air again?
If I want a 15” screen I’ll get a Pro (almost the same price as current 15” Air anyway).
I miss having a laptop I could grab and go with the knowledge it’d fit in any bag I’d have with me.

Is anyone else just a little concerned that the rush towards copyable #passkeys (as against hardware bound such as a #YubiKey) is still a single factor #InfoSec risk? I’m quite happy having a #passkey instead of a password as one factor, so long as I can still add MFA to it, but I’m concerned that this isn’t going to be implemented in most cases.

June's Humble Choice is stacked! (www.humblebundle.com)

I feel like I've skipped a lot of months the last year or two, but I got this month's Humble Choice right away. Several games that have been sitting on my wishlist for ages were on here. Anyone else snagging this one?

64GB #Steam #Deck obtained, and 1TB SSD swapped in without a hitch! I blame @gamingonlinux!
