Apple reviews, DJI Mini 5 Pro, hacker retirement, weight loss pill, macOS 26 Tahoe, Meta Connect 2025, iPhone 17, honk and post nuclear cockroaches. Sometimes improvement in technology are fairly low-tech and really loud. As I write this post, there are jackhammers destroying the sidewalk outside of my home office. I’m expecting them to start rebuilding the sidewalk tomorrow which should be much quieter. In the end, I’ll have a much improved sidewalk. But I’ll definitely be glad when peace and quiet returns. This is also the first new post that will be send to subscribers via our new MailPoet mailing service and I’m hoping all goes well. As always, you can check out all of this week’s news on our site.
