  • Software update before I go to bed.

    Just out of curiosity I had a check online and it appears that Apple has released the beta testing for the 26.4 platform update. When it comes to Safari 26.4 there is a change log available which gives an insight into what will be coming when 26.4 final is released (link). Generally speaking once the…

  • Starting the weekend.

    The wind and rain are going crazy outside so I decided to do a few things – the first was to put the chairs and table away because the wind had already blown one of my chairs over so I worried what en even bigger gust of wind may cause. The second was to order…

  • Almost there.

    Had a good day at work, finished off some work and then went for my nightly walk and during the day I did some free weights on my break. As for my meal schedule, once again I stuck to it with a continual reminder to myself about the goal I’m trying to reach by the…

  • At the half way point again.

    Ubiquiti has released UniFi Network Application 10.1.85 – I’ve updated to it and everything is going smoothly. Regarding the update to my UXG Max Gateway, although I have seen some reports regarding issues with other models, everything is working well with mine but then again there are so many variables that could cause issues (not…

  • Apple releases an avalanche of updates.

    I woke up this morning and found that Apple had released an avalanche of updates. I’ve updated all of my devices and here are a few things I noticed: Regarding Safari, I cleared all the cookies and cache, then visited some websites to see how it performs and I found that a few websites were…

The changes in Safari can be found here (link) and the security fixes for macOS (link), iOS (link) and tvOS…

  • Back home now.

    Arrived back at home and checked my letter box – the CD I ordered off Discogs (it was posted from the United Kingdom) arrived: I checked the CD, perfect condition and I ripped the music to my FLAC collection to back up to the cloud then to AAC format for my iPhone. I’ve had a…

  • Back to work on Wednesday.

    I had a good walk tonight of 11.6km and the weather was good – warm but not hot when compared to the walk down to the bakery when I picked up a late lunch. I’ve got my laptop bag and swipe card all organised as well as lunch too because last week I forgot all…

  • Off to sleep.

    Off to sleep and hopefully tomorrow 26.3 will be released but that may not happen until Wednesday (NZ Time) due to Apple normally releasing it on Wednesday but that all depends on whether there were any show stopper bugs found in the release candidate. I don’t expect it to be a big update but we…

  • A strange night sleep.

    I had a bit of a late night because I got stuck into a binge watch of Fallout season 2 and had a small sleep then I woke up early but couldn’t get to sleep so I then went for a walk at around 6am. It is surprising the number of people out at that…
