My newest photo series on Glass: Humans.

Even idle (10%-15% CPU usage), the new M4 Mac mini (with M4 Pro chip) runs much hotter than the old M1. I don’t hear the fan but according to iStats Menu, the temp inside is 56F.

Got my M4 Mac mini yesterday and completed the migration off the old M1 Mac mini. The process took me about 2.5 hours, where about 1.25 hours for data migration only using the Apple Migration Assistant1. Upon first login, I got only a handful of security-related popups, much less than I was … read more

Migration in progress … 😎

If only Bluesky had an iPad version of their mobile app. Is this in the works? (Posted from Micro.blog but asking the Bluesky community).

How does an app get updated on a weekly basis without any new features or apparent bug fixes? Exhibit A: Medium. Is someone trying to game the App Store?

Paying to be a beta tester: is this a new trend? Glass Series was available to patron subscribers only while being in beta testing. RealMac Software offers Elements in beta as a subscription but at a reduced price. Active beta testers are actually paying of their time to use a software still being … read more

In preparation to receive the new M4 Mac mini which supports at least two screens¹, I decided to rework my desk setup and bring back the LG UltraFine 4K display on my desk. Once the migration from the old Mac mini is complete, I’ll be using a two-display setup. My Synology NAS was moved to a separate table to make some room for the LG display. My Elgao StreamDeck+ was relocated too, this time on the desk shelf.

I’ve been playing with Glass Series and I must say that I really like my experience with it so far. Series are like albums, like this example.

As I’m getting ready to receive my new M4 Mac mini¹, I’m starting to think that my decision to go with a 1TB model was not really future-proof and probably downright a mistake.

If I’m less active here it might be because I’m more active on Bluesky. 😬 @numericciten.me

At Fort Lauderdale Airport: I was really impressed by the scanner they use at the security gates. The operator uses a big screen similar to a big iPad and uses touch gestures to tilt and rotate luggage in 3D, uses a slider to see slices of the bag’s internal content. Really cool.

Leaving Haiti. 😍

Great use of Apple offline Maps in Miami. Works wonderfully well.

This is how he does it. Incredible the amount of BS being said in such a little crowd and so little time. All white and rich guys. 🤮

Dealing with Airline companies is not my favorite thing in the world. Flight got cancelled. Booked another one. Barely made it to the gate. 😅

In a few hours, I’m flying from Montreal to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA. Interesting fact: Florida is one of the states who most massively voted for Trump. Thankfully, I’m staying there less than 24 hours.

Many tech reviewers are discussing the unusual placement of the power button on the M4 Mac mini. However, none of them, to my knowledge, mention the size of the power light. It is much larger than before. Could this be annoying? Are Apple designers failing again? Is Apple doomed once more? These are serious questions. Why am I the only one asking them?

Bye bye Tot; I’m so in love with Raycast Notes!

I’m nearly done with an article about the Pixelmator buy-out by Apple, but I will wait a bit before publishing it…. everyone being focused elsewhere.
