Thanks, I’m thinking about getting a M4 mini and I‘d like to dabble in mobile dev.

Then it might actually be good to try out apples coding thingie, Xcode, it’s pretty complicated but also really cool in that you can test apps directly on a emulated phone on the computer

So I bought a magic trackpad, it's actually pretty good, I didn't replace my mouse with it but I use it as a secondary device, also installed bettertouchtool so I mapped most of the shortcuts I use from the keyboard.

AdGuard didn’t work? I’ve been using that for a while now and seems to work. I don’t know about on YouTube though since I pay for that.

My MacBook Pro 2017 had pang and smoke today. Scared that it would burn my home down I went to Apple Store and they took it to investigate. Curious to know what happened. Seems it’s not the battery, they said the smell would be different, they suspect it was a component based on the smell.
Also curious since it’s out of warranty, why did they take it to investigate? It says on the paper that is going for repair but the price is 0. Hmh

So the new iPhone 16e is priced at $599, lmao, guess I'm keeping my android phone til it dies, it's still pretty decent but the display was flickering every once in a while, and the only alternative for stylus phone is the flagship Samsung one, so I thought if I'm gonna ditch the pen and go for a cheaper device, I may as well try a "budget" iOS phone, but guess I won't.

Thats sad to see, when they priced the new Mac mini even cheaper than before it was a good sign, but seems they didnt do it in their other departments.
