Space Javelin

Formerly-regular tech podcast commenting on Apple and other worthy tech topics and assorted geekery. Now (semi?) retired, but still worth listening to.

@AshandyTemi 56+9 = 65.
65+20 = 85.
Yes, I learned this from Schoolhouse Rock. :)

@waq_r We hate to disagree, BUT: social media, email/messaging, and casual games do not require large amounts of RAM, and stats show that is what most people do with notebooks most of the time. Advanced users of course disagree, but forget who the masses are.

@samkohl Probably the engineer(s) that came up with it, but otherwise ... no.

@WhovianLife Fun and fabulous. Surprising variety of story and story types. Memorable guest stars, great references to the lore.

@Mrwhosetheboss Same reason I’m not interested in Android … don’t care to add “Chinese government” to the list of entities that mine all my data and charge me for the privilege, thanks.

@FlightRed50 Hilarious.

@docoho Some people are only happy when they’re angry at something they “love”.

@pie1883 @TobyHadoke It’s not a new soundtrack. It’s the original soundtrack. Enhanced for modern sound systems and lightly augmented by Mark Ayres. It’s been widely misrepresented.

@mbrkhrdt Yes, utterly remarkable that they never raised prices when literally EVERYTHING else has.

Indeed, most of their prices haven’t gone up in even longer than three years.

@andrewjclare Haven’t tried all of them, but Apple Music meets my needs and gives me zero reason to try others again. Spatial rules!

[Space Javelin @spacejavelin]

@RjeyTech Well, a) I don’t believe Google on this for a second. By the time the Pixel 10 comes out they will have long since forgotten it, and b) most iPhones are fully supported for six years and get further security updates for 1-2 years.

@sophie_aldred She was such a sweet lady. Got to see her a number of times over the years and she was always a delight.

@MKBHD If by this you mean predicting constant surveillance, then yes.

@Johnboy_Cook Only because that’s BS you made up!
