The Fedora Asahi Linux remix is now working on M3 Apple Silicon models. They’re advancing. Interesting to keep track of, just in case Apple (further) enshittifies along with other US Big Tech…

How do you lure your kids off iPhones?
Give them MacBooks…running a "cool" version of Linux. Snagged 2 old Airs for just €50 each.
Wiped macOS, & installed @elementary - a clean, distro that feels familiar to macOS users but comes with a lot less bloat.
Now they’ve got "cool" Apple gear, with the the rich world of #Linux that respects their freedom and sparks curiosity.
Kids 1, Dad 1
Win-Win

[Boycott Apple] After horrific new shooting in Minn, Apple CEO billionaire Cook shows up black tie to kiss Trump's behind at screening of Amazon vanity "Melania" movie -- DISGUSTING
Have you ever noticed #BigTech "shadow banning" open and free platforms like #mastodon? Billionaires and Oppressive Governments benefit from 3 rich dudes controlling the narrative. Corporate powers will never willingly move to the #fediverse.
If a single Mastodon instance had wide spread #CSAM and non-consensual #AI slop porn like the recent #twitter scandal #Apple and #Google would disable downloads instantly.
My name is Elizabeth but please call me Lisa.
I'm probably best known as the person who started the #Safari and #WebKit projects at #Apple. You may think you know my deadname but... you don't.
I've drawn underground comics, pioneered using a Mac for newspaper graphics and developed software at Adobe and Netscape.
Now I write video #transcoding scripts and sometimes podcast.
Follow me and I'll fill your timeline with boosts.

Mi banco, BBVA, me informa por email de que a partir de ahora las comunicaciones que hacían por #SMS (que son pocas, normalmente son por la app), se harán por RCS para evitar fraudes.
Los mensajes #RCS permiten verificación del emisor. Y por cosas como esta era tan importante que Apple por fin permitiese los mensajes RCS en #iMessage, al margen de su movida de burbujas verdes y azules en EE.UU.
Al final, adoptar estándares nuevos no va de fastidiar a #Apple, va de dar más opciones a las usuarias. Que Apple base su negocio en un jardín vallado pues... Es su problema!
Yep, helemaal waar... Gaan we er nog wat aan doen ook? Laaghangend fruit eerst zou ik zeggen? Van #X / Twitter -> Mastodon, Consumenten bewust maken dat er wel degelijk #alternatieven zijn voor #Windows, #Apple en #Google? Die prima werken. Ja, je moet een beetje wennen en sommige dingen anders doen. En nee, je kunt dan niet meer met je telefoon aan de kassa betalen, maar je pinpas werkt (voor nu nog) nog steeds prima. Of je gebruikt gewoon #cash dat werkt ook nog steeds. Goh... #unplugtrump
Note to self: Get that damn NAS up now and Ditch your dependency on #apple ASAP, burn your Apple ID. pass it on.

P. S. Naomi Brockwell has a good hands on video on using an Apple computer without Apple ID. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1g0RzOGxe40
Wer ein #iPhone oder #iPad besitzt, lernt nie aus: Viele kleine Funktionen verstecken sich abseits der großen Ankündigungen von #Apple im System und bleiben oft unentdeckt. Oder wusstet ihr, dass ihr mehrere #LivePhotos in einem einzigen Videos zusammenfassen könnt? Wir zeigen, wie es geht.

That shock scene in Fear the walking dead where a protagonist kills a zombie by pushing his thumbs through the zombie’s eyes until he broke through the cranium was so much more satisfying when I replayed it, imagining the zombie was the guy at #Apple that is responsible for changing around how you stop and snooze alarms

#introduction (Part 2) - Yeah, I like #infosec, we all do here at infosec.exchange right? But sometimes I do other stuff… (in no particular order)

Apparently it is possible to turn on FileVault for a Mac user without giving them the right to access FileVault, as long as there is one admin user who can. This produces the symptom of a mac which, post-boot, does not allow login to the affected users.

Viele beliebte soziale Netzwerke gehören #BigTech-Unternehmen aus den #USA, sei es #Facebook, #WhatsApp, #Instagram und #Threads, die zum Meta-Konzern von #MarkZuckerberg gehören, oder #X von #ElonMusk. Auch #Bluesky, #YouTube, #Snapchat und #Reddit stammen aus US-amerikanischer Hand. Nun macht die frühere eBay-Managerin #AnnaZeiter (46) mit einem neuen Projekt auf sich aufmerksam: Sie will mit #WSocial eine europäische Antwort auf X liefern.
I never did a pinned intro post, so: Started in #radio 30 years ago, which transitioned to #podcast 20 years ago. “Mac OS Ken” focuses on Apple News. “The Checklist by #SecureMac” focuses on security. Did a show about #StarTrek, until the people who owned it wouldn’t pay a decent wage (no fooling). These days, all I REALLY want to talk about are #bookbinding, #fountainpens, #postcards, #linocut, #stationery and #VR. And #AR. And #Apple and #podcasting and radio.
Oh. And fuck the fascists.
“I love it when I press a flat button and it morphs briefly into a skeuomorphic shiny bubble of some sort before morphing back into a flat menu.”

"¿sabes que ahora el #iPhone lleva USB como el ordenador?"
y una tibia respuesta de
"ah, qué guay"
Y así la gente continuará creyendo que #Apple inventó el teléfono móvil, Internet, las pantallas táctiles, y ahora, por lo visto el USB-C.
Que no tuvimos que enfadarnos ni nada para que dejaran de hacer el canelo y respetaran un jodido estándar de una maldita vez.
