Yes Maui kman
ChuckJ

Yes, Majikman...seeing it.
ChuckJ
16:31:14
Gee, thanks Bob. That makes us feel warm and fuzzy. ;)
Majikman
16:31:22
I can’t use colloquy on my MBP
Callum_iMM
16:31:40
Cheers Bob
Majikman
16:31:50
Having to use app on iPhone
BobBeach
16:32:01
No worries
Callum_iMM

ChuckJ
16:33:27
I had too many issues with Colloquy...went to Textual and have had no issues.
Majikman
16:33:36
I can’t download a Mac version of Colloquy. The link on the BTN webpage Joe’s to a 404 error.
DaveG
16:33:48
I cant get Textual to connect .
ChuckJ
16:34:03
Firewall? VPN?
Majikman
16:34:11
Oh thanks ChuckJ will give that a try.
Callum_iMM
16:34:12
BobBeach
16:35:11
Textual costs. Colloquy is free
BobBeach
16:35:23
No iPad app for Textual?
DaveG
16:35:56
Checked firewall I am able to connect to other IRC servers without issue.

What’s wrong with the Mail app? Works fine for me. But maybe I don’t get that much email
BobBeach
16:47:47
The problem with Apple is not the bulging in apps. You can always download others. The main problem is their pricing
BobBeach
16:48:08
Built in apps!
BobBeach
16:54:00
I don’t want Ford’s engine in my Ford!
ChuckJ
16:54:16
EXACTLY Bob!
BobBeach
16:54:43
Stopping apple from including certain apps is stupid

Woah hoo.
Majikman
17:00:09
Found the problem. Text Expander is crashing and stopping typing into other apps.
BobBeach
17:00:13
Sainsbury’s have their own brands. I don’t see other manufacturers complaining
Majikman
17:00:41
Well Tesco dont allow Sainsbury products on their shelves
BobBeach
17:01:22
I could buy Sainsbury’s beans but I prefer Heinz, which are also in the store
BobBeach

Spotify should stop bleating
Majikman
17:03:26
Never used Spotify, no need, music pretty much fills all my needs.
Majikman
17:04:26
Just like to hear themselves bleat and make some money Chuck
BobBeach
17:04:48
I used Spotify until Apple Music became better. Then I switched
ChuckJ
17:05:20
I love "bleat". I'm going to use it.
BobBeach
17:06:10
Dave has gone to a photo where he looks ten years younger!
Majikman
17:07:15
Cause Apple are now the biggest company in the world and the politicians want there pound of flesh
Majikman
17:07:53
Ireland didnt help the situation
ChuckJ
17:08:15
Ireland?
BobBeach
17:08:43
Buy a Surface - no bloatware on those
patrice
17:09:25

only charging Apple a lower tax rate upset the other EU counties and they set out to get them. Cover with a blanket of "all big tech companies" Chuck
Majikman
17:11:45
Callum_iMM do you have any refurb Mac Mini M1's
ChuckJ
17:11:54
Ah! Got it. Thanks.
Callum_iMM
17:12:18
A touch too early for refurb M1’s, we can supply new however.
Majikman
17:13:17
I really want a iMac 27" but thought I'd get a Mac Mini in the mean time.
Majikman
17:14:02
I paid my iPad invoice today Callum_iMM
BobBeach
17:14:08
I reckon it will be bigger than 27” when it arrives
Callum_iMM
17:14:49
Majikman I’ll make sure it gets sent out Monday, should be with you Tuesday.
Majikman
17:15:14
Yeah you could be right Bob 28 or 30" but I'm sure it will be pricy
BobBeach
17:15:14
I’ve got iPadOS 15 on an old IPad Pro 1st gen
BobBeach
17:15:36
Indeed. I’m saving up!
Majikman
17:15:44
Thanks Callum_iMM, I've asked for it to be sent to my daughters address.
Majikman
17:16:35
I like the fact that Textual scrolls unlike Colloquy

Majikman
17:18:20
if i buy a new Mac Mini from you Callum_iMM, would you give us a good trade in against a iMac 27"+ when and if it arrives?
DaveG
17:19:07
Haha BobBeach that was taken 6 years ago
Callum_iMM
17:20:11
I’d have to double check, I’ll drop you a message.
BobBeach
17:20:21
No iPad app for Textual. I always tend to watch on my iPad

17:22:14
I’d highly recommend it.
ChuckJ
17:22:38
Thanks BobBeach...enjoy!
Majikman

I downloaded Colloquy from the filehorse link but the MacOS wont let me install as it cant verify.
