We’ve covered all but two of the Mac apps I can live without. Here are the last two. #2 Microsoft Teams Teams may be OK on a Windows machine [as if a Windows machine can be OK – ed], but on a Mac, it is barely usable. I would say 50%* of the time, Teams does… Continue reading The last two Mac apps I can live without
We interrupt the list of apps to talk hosting…
I was with Jumpline for the hosting of this website since September 2000. That is more than 25 years for you people keeping score at home.

A year or… Continue reading We interrupt the list of apps to talk hosting…

First Mac App I can live without
Last time we looked at two apps I can’t live without, MacUpdater and AppCleaner. This time we’ll look at the first app that I can live without, #4 ChatGPT.

Contestant: What is “Amazingly few discotheques provide jukeboxes”? Host: That is correct! Contestant: I’ll take holoalphabetic sentences for $600, please. The question I get most often on my posts is “Why in the world do you think of these things?” followed closely by “Is there someone working on a vaccine or a cure?” Absent a… Continue reading Snippet 12
Where does your mind go when you lose it?
We’ve all heard something like, “I am losing my mind!” but have you ever thought about where you mind goes when you lose it? When you temporarily lose your car keys, they go someplace, for example, the ice cube tray.
