While the Logitech MX Master 3 is a terrific mouse for the Mac, reports claiming that Apple CEO Tim Cook prefers that mouse over the Magic Mouse are false.
The Wall Street Journal last month published an interview with Cook, in which he said he uses every Apple product every day. Soon after, The Verge's Wes Davis attempted to replicate using every Apple product in a single day. During that...

The iOS 18.1.1, iPadOS 18.1.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 updates that Apple released today address JavaScriptCore and WebKit vulnerabilities that Apple says have been actively exploited on some devices.
With the JavaScriptCore vulnerability, processing maliciously crafted web content could lead to arbitrary code execution. The WebKit vulnerability had the same issue with maliciously crafted...
Everything is still overpriced. Man-O'man, I remember when gas was $0.32/gallon, a pair of Koss Pro 4A headphones cost $49.00, weekly groceries were $15.00 (and that included a weekend 6-pack!), no one subscribed to TV - all 4 channels were free. And, we coded with paper punch cards.

First, you forgot the UHF channels with the goofy local host who dressed up as a spaceman.

I was blessed to just miss the punch card era. My first exposure to computing was with a DEC PDP 11/70 - the university was in the process of redoing all the labs to install terminals. There was still a punch card reader, but most people avoided it like the plague.
Man, you haven't lived until you've played Star Trek on a DECwriter II dot-matrix terminal!
I remember playing Lunar Lander on the DEC 11 with the a DM terminal. I was a Senior (1971) in prep school and I think Ken Olsen may have donated it to the school. It was sad to see DEC decline as they did.
Oh, I think I remember that one too! Both games were great paper-wasters. ?
