We have an anniversary to celebrate! Tomorrow marks one year since macOS 12.3 released and @Dropbox stopped working! This article from 1/22 (almost 14 months ago) details the YET ONGOING problem. How will we celebrate, @Dropbox @DropboxSupport ?

[Big Man Consulting @bigmantech]

@Dropbox You think we'll get to celebrate the one year anniversary of @Dropbox completely abandoning timely Mac support? 12.3 was released March 14, 2022.

This article is 11 months old and Dropbox has still not fixed this issue completely. They say a fix is being rolled out, but my team's Macs don't have it yet. When will online-only files actually work for Macs,
@Dropbox ? https://t.co/7bratdWELD

@Dropbox Also, we are enrolled in the betas. Still got those sweet non-opening, zero-kb, online-only files.

Huge shout out to @computervillage for having the Mac I needed in stock today. And also for displaying some very choice vintage Mac stuff. #thinkdifferent @ Computer Village Apple Premier Partner https://t.co/P0KwAJYcuL

I think easily one of the worst parts of iOS (which I tend to love) is that when I search my phone for stopwatch or timer, it can’t find the built in Clock app which includes a stopwatch and a timer. Dear @Apple @AppleSupport please fix this?

If you were waiting to buy AirPods Pro, they're on sale for a great price today at https://t.co/Q79WAeGxfX Mine are in my pocket roughly 98% of the time, and I absolutely love them.

Our phones went down for a few minutes today. I called support and the rep said “oh yeah, we were having issues with one of our servers earlier” yet their online service status page showed everything fine. Everyone, use these pages better

Facebook really really wants all your data

Apple exposing all the ways Facebook tracks you with it iOS app is really quite something

Is this thing on?

Big Man now features all-SSD triage and utilities drives. The USB-C connection on the back of the drive alone is a huge upgrade. #appleconsultantsnetwork https://t.co/MG756SAQPZ

The inside of Macs is always pretty, but the G5s took it to a new level. What a beautiful case design. #appleconsu… https://t.co/9g6Wt84OwD
