@sumudu As well as adjusting font settings in your browser preferences you can just press command and plus/minus to quickly make everything bigger or smaller (command and 0 resets it). You can also pinch to zoom on a trackpad. Maybe you know all that already.
@matigo I didn’t know you could share out backup space for Time Machine. If other people were trusting me with their machine backups I’d definitely want a second backup of the ‘hub’ computer that’s not connected (wired or wirelessly) except during the actual backup. But maybe these things aren’t such a big deal anymore because people store a lot of critical stuff online and modern Macs have snapshots. Mind you, an internal snapshot won’t help much if you have broken hardware.

So that’s what ‘Get Carter’ is like. Not bad. Not a great film but decent. I mainly liked how Tyneside and surrounds is used as a character. Some films do that don’t they? They use places or buildings as characters. Atmospheric places, atmospheric buildings.
I’ve heard about those tools made by Israeli contractors that allow government agencies to get past encryption in devices quite easily but I’d prefer it if that ability didn’t trickle down…
There seems to be an app called 4uKey by a company called Tenorshare that can recover your Apple I.D. password from your iPhone in a few minutes. Granted, it needs physical access via U.S.B. but I thought Apple used hard encryption that extremely powerful computers needed weeks to crack. It’s not like I tend to leave my phone lying around in strangers' houses/offices so it’s probably not a very significant real world concern. But I’m curious about whether a programme anyone can download can nab your passwords in five minutes. It would be a godsend for creepy boyfriends for example.
My old self-made website from twenty years ago. I think that was the only time I put my full name on the Internet. I’d progressed from Netscape Composer to doing it by hand thanks to some basic templates and learning a few tags. You could probably count the tags I knew on one hand but it was enough for a simple, personal site.
