    WWDC 2026 IOS, MACOS, IPadOS

    Thanks. Same. Didn’t take too long, fortunately, and then also activated on my iPad etc.

    WWDC 2026 IOS, MACOS, IPadOS

    Still had to opt in to the new Siri AI Beta, via the Waiting List… What’s happening with the rest of you? Did new Siri come along with iOS 27, if you never ran any of the Betas?

    Changes noticed / being made to Canal+ version of DStv

    Update: I am a chop. I hadn’t paid for this month. Hence only seeing the free version channels. Paid now, all sorted. I haven’t been following developments, so not sure if this has already explained? Opened up the DSTV stream app today, and hardly any channels are now visible? Used to be...

    macOS Tahoe (macOS 26)

    For the first time since moving over to a Mac, I've held off on updating to the latest OS. On Sequoia 15.7.3 on my MBP, but on Tahoe on all the iOS devices. Going to be interesting to see if anything changes post-Dye, i.t.o of the next major OS update. Presently, simply don't feel...

    South African pricing for the MBA M3 16GB?

    University — taking the plunge on a M3 now, should guarantee it lasting the 4/5/6 years of any UG/PG degree.

    South African pricing for the MBA M3 16GB?

    Package with new MBA arrived today. Only it contained a frisbee and some sort of small PC-fan gizmo. Sigh. Going through the motions of logging the return. Seems some frisbee person just scored a R22k laptop — or maybe it was just an oversight... Regardless, what a schlepp.

    South African pricing for the MBA M3 16GB?

    Our's is off to 1st year varsity. Surprised any schools still require a Windows' machine, to be honest. Thought it would be a Chromebook/any device that can get onto Google classroom in most of them these days.

    South African pricing for the MBA M3 16GB?

    Thanks. As does Takealot — only 20 left — this is what we bought yesterday! Midnight blue/black version is selling R2k cheaper than the other 3 colours, for the same spec (16GB/256GB M3 MBA 13"). So, that was quite serendipitous.

    Disconnecting inverter

    Is this the consensus — that with zero loadshedding, it is better to disconnect one's batteries and inverter, since keeping it charged fully without being used is potentially worse for the system?

    South African pricing for the MBA M3 16GB?

    Greetings all! Would appreciate some clarity: See iStore has the 13" MBA M3 8GB listed at R21,999 — with the 13" MBA M3 16GB listed at R23,999.00. My understanding was that Apple had now effectively introduced the 16GB as the baseline model — so one should be paying the same price, but get...

    DSTV Stream experience vs ATV?

    Still have a previous, previous gen ATV. And use the DSTV Stream app. The latter drives me mental. Always slow, takes forever to show me what channel options are available. Don't get me started on how laggy it is to scroll. Also seems to default to some sort of standard/free-tier of the DSTV...

    LG Plasma finally kicked the bucket — what now, brown cow?

    Delivered today, and installed. Wow, is all I can say. Very happy with the choice made in the end. Thanks for all the input.

    LG Plasma finally kicked the bucket — what now, brown cow?

    Cheers. Sjo — that might’ve raised all sorts of questions had I seen this earlier! Went with the 55” C4 in the end. Should have all set up by Wednesday. 👍🏻

    LG Plasma finally kicked the bucket — what now, brown cow?

    Thanks — yes, was contemplating this. Was first going to check if it also had a secondary HDMI on the back (which I doubt, given its age). If so, will move on to one of the other rooms as something a bit bigger to use with my home server. It's too long in the tooth now to work with kid's Xbox...

    LG Plasma finally kicked the bucket — what now, brown cow?

    I am thankfully not averse to reading. And whilst I have read my fair share of sports-related books, doesn't quite replace watching it as well. I.r.o. my avatar, JC remains a treasure. :) And you assumed that everyone on this forum is familiar with all forms of colloquialisms? Goodness...
