MyMac.com Podcast

Just one more episode until we hit 400 shows! With this being that one more episode. Apple screws up royally on a number of fronts, and the GMen are NOT happy about the FCC's attempt to destroy Net Neutrality...err..advance the cause of Internet Freedom...or something

Yeah YEAH! Famous well known footballer references that made lots of money vs the GMen who...do a podcast. It's OK though because the reference actually has nothing what so ever to do with Beckham but bendable Apple keyboards. Also countries want more money from Apple and instead of changing the laws that made it possible for them to move their money out legally, they're going to add MORE laws because that's always worked in the past. Lastly, Google is Swiftly changing Fuchsia to some other color...or something

A real off the rails show even more so than usual (which is saying something). The GMen can't even get out of MyMac articles without something going horribly wrong, which is a source of great entertainment. Meanwhile, Apple is pre-loading High Sierra without asking (BAD FORM!), ISP's still want to sell you TV instead of data (BAD FORM!), and Apple's new Apple Park Visitor Center is now open with coffee, light snacks, and all the Apple gear your credit car can handle (BAD...well actually we're not sure).

Ever notice how hard it is to describe a problem and solution over audio? Guy never has and attempts to explain his current setup using stone knives and bearskins...or a 2 mix minus setup with a Mac Pro and Mac Mini. Still confused? That will continue even after the explanation. The GMen talk about how the iPhone doesn't like the letter "i", tax havens, why the iPhone 8 isn't selling as well as others think it should, and so much more.

Just FIVE shows away from what is sure to be an AMAZING 400th episode! Or NOT! In this one though they talk about Apple's financials and the possibility that the problems the Pixel 1 screen had MIGHT come to bite Apple too. Oh also Meatloaf and Tim Curry somehow.

Gaz is away and Karl Madden is kind enough to jump in. They talk about the double standard of how the tech press treats Apple versus other tech companies. Karl talks about ordering the iPhone X, an Apple Watch with LTE, and health apps. Then weird tangents about Star Trek, media companies, and Guy ranting about paid services with ads.

Bad news for Jason Isaacs as 15 minutes of QUALITY talk about his film career is gone after Guy's computer crashes and crashes hard. So they talk about THAT, KRACK, Facebook and publishing, Malware, and the Mac Mini.

6-8 year old Apple Cinema Display looks WAY better that a 2 year old Gateway monitor...duh. Gaz ALMOST has this time lapse camera thing figured out...almost. The Men play a game that has a certain politician's name but it isn't about him. SHHH! Don't tell him, he get's jealous. OH! Also someone used the Skype phone number!

We have acrobatic cats, mad about wifi/bluetooth/an inexpensive computer that STILL gets a GMan in trouble, intestinal distress, and peeing in parking lots. All before we get out of the intro to the show. AOL shuts down a bit of history, Bionic vs Fusion, Jonny Ive not talking about anything, and a discussion about what we'll talk about NEXT week. Hmm, seems like a full show for something so meh.

One is at home, the other is on the road. Look at the picture carefully to figure out who is who. Ohio is burning with hot chili and cool peppers. High Sierra is out, the FCC is mad because Apple won't turn on non-existent radios, and everyone is afraid of Macs with old firmware that actually doesn't mean all that much.
