OK mates, I have my hat on as Secretary of the National Federation of the Blind’s wonderful DeafBlind Division, and I also have my hearing aids cranked up, so I will be able to hear you say, “yes! Absolutely! I am going to order me some yummy popcorn right this very minute”! I have just done […]

I’m in the middle of the M-Enabling Conference, but wanted to express sorrow to read of the death of Lord Jeffrey Archer. On the printed page and in life, he was a brilliant raconteur and story teller. Whenever a new Archer book came out, everything else would stop for me. He was certainly a […]

Apple confirms iPhone 18 Pro Max AT&T cellular issues, affected devices require hardware replacement

Apple has confirmed an issue causing a “small number” of iPhone 18 Pro Max devices on AT&T to lose cellular service. Apple released software and carrier updates to prevent the issue from affecting additional users, but the company tells _9to5Mac_ that devices that have already lost service will require a hardware replacement. more…

Sadly, I don’t think the New Zealand rugby team is going to have very fond memories of Baltimore. They are being thumped. Very interesting, tuning into a New Zealand radio station to hear commentary of something that’s going on so close to us

I'm spending some time with Meta's new Muse service, an AI agent that runs in your own little VM. It's quite interesting and I just had it buy something for me. There are so many safeguards that I'm not sure it's much quicker than doing it yourself, except that it did quite quickly shop around […]
