I bought my first MacBook in '07, which came with Tiger installed. A couple of months later they released Leopard for £130, or free if you bought your Mac within the last month. So I contacted them and asked whether I’d had mine too long to get the free update. They said I had, but that they’d send me the disc for the cost of postage anyway.
So I paid £5 for Leopard.
And if your hardware doesn’t support it, then OCLP is your friend.
Or Mint.
These days, if you say you are English, you can be thrown in jail.
Back in 2007 when I bought my first MacBook it came with a massive 1Gb RAM, so I asked the lad in the store about upgrading to 2Gb. He pointed me in the direction of a site where I could get it for a damn sight cheaper.
Yeah, Apple have been playing that game for a loooong time.

And my work here is done.
SAULT, and Pepa
I’ve lost count of the fines I’ve received for having my dick out for Harambe, but I refuse to not show respect.
Americans and their attitude to their holiday allowance will never cease to amaze me.
Literally the only consideration I need to make on behalf of my employer is whether my days off will leave less than 75% of my department out. And as that never happens then I never have to think about it.
If you have holiday available to you, take it.
I posted my comment using that very client 😀

Amazing. Make loads of noise about snagging Christian from Apollo to be a part of the relaunch, then make an app that has nowhere near the charm of Apollo.

I turned 45 a couple of weeks ago. With a little bit of the birthday money I had, I treated myself to a small radio controlled car. I’m talking £8 from the supermarket (without batteries, so not that cheap).
I can drive a full sized car, but who doesn’t love the fun of a little RC car?
Also, I have rainbow laces in my work boots, and a rainbow lanyard for my office ID. Partly it’s in support of Pride, but also because bright colours are nice. But everyone at work thinks I’m gay (which I only partly am…).
The older I get, the more I lean into just doing fun things, because yeah, the rest of life is a fucking grind right now.
I saw the London Symphony Orchestra play Holst’s The Planets at the Royal Albert Hall at the weekend. We were sat right up by the organ pipes, so when they started rumbling it was absolutely incredible.

I played their version of The Trooper on my radio show last week. Seemed go down very well indeed.
D, because I’m British and can’t trust them forrins to not put too much spice like salt in my food.
“Stop fucking shouting at me. You’re a fucking robot” I calmly say to my car’s reversing sensors.

Hard to do AirPlay from a Pixel.
I just finished playing the first Death Stranding. If I didn’t know it was by Hideo Kojima going in, I sure as hell knew by the end of the first hour.
Incredible game, mind.
