Karl Madden of the Mac and Forth podcast join the GMen to help answer a listener question asking about Power Adapters. This got us to thinking (and you know how hard that is), what kind of options are there to power our Apple gear away from wherever it is we call home. Not just that quick trip to Disneyland, but perhaps some far away land filled with wonder unlike anything we’ve experienced at home! Huh…,maybe we mean Disneyland after all.

Space, the final frontier. Starship flew briefly this morning before one part splashed and one part burned. Maybe next time

SO many saviors of other people...who never even hear what they have to say or if they actually WANT you to save them. Maybe let them speak for themselves? Nah, YOU know better right?

Talking a bit about my son's upcoming wedding and wanting to go on more trips because that's fun!

What happens when you get two podcasters playing with AI images? Unexpected results and lots of laughs. Karl Madden and Guy spent some time this morning trying to create images with AI and some crazy results occurred. Since this is more visual than usual, Guy will create a version of the podcast on YouTube that will just have the AI image discussion so you don’t have to go through the whole thing.

A haircut and people who are crazy conspiracy theorists (you know who you are!) get the business today.

Hey everyone, think back to those glorious days when the GMen went on and on about Apple’s ever so certain to be released (any day now) Apple car that was going to be so advanced that it would drive itself. In fact you couldn’t drive it even if you wanted to because it wouldn’t have a steering wheel. Well stick a pin on that because Apple has done a soft announcement that they’re canceling it! In fact, the announcement was SO soft that they didn’t even say it and relied on all the hype masters who have talked about it for ten years to do it for them.

It's all about time...or sometimes the lack of it

Well it'ds been a long time, but Guy's Daily Drive is back. More nonsense about football and just general blah blah marks the first one. I'm SURE it'll get better...later on

Apple’s M3 Processor is a good (not particularly great but good) update over it’s M2 brothers and sisters. Depending on the configuration you want, it’s roughly about a 20% improvement. If you already have an M2-based computer, is it worth putting down your hard earned currency of choice? Depends on what you use it for, but generally speaking probably not. If you’re still on an Intel Mac or M1? Look in your couch cushions for spare change because you might want to make the jump.
