The 14” Pro is a lovely machine.

I have a M1 Air and 2 M3 16” Pros ( for work).
The 16 is just too big. My partner has a 14” and it’s really nice.

Honestly, with the rise of GenAI, stock photo might be dead.

I have serious reservations about the tech, but using it costs a lot of money for the people pushing it, so I’m more ok with it.

Don’t forget the masterstroke of turning the frogs gay.

A bit dramatic. The deprecated devices are like 15 years old.

Sure, it sucks. I just moved into a house with a first gen Nest learning thermostat. So I am a little annoyed.

They have a funeral every time, for fun and closure before they resurrect him.

Don’t even need that. She’s protected by the 1st Amendment. Big lawsuit incoming.

That schoolbus is about to get heated, reclining seats and a Freestyle Coca-Cola machine.

If you can’t afford time to protest, that’s intentional

Maybe grab some snacks and an extra chair if someone wants to talk with you. Bring a lot of water and have a bathroom picked out nearby.

If you’re not driving, maybe leave ID at home. If the cops come a knocking, be sure you know the ID laws for your area.
