Hi Majikman
DaveG
16:18:59

Majikman
16:19:03
Dont forget me in the chatroom Jeff
Majikman
16:19:35
4-2
Majikman
16:19:43
Well 4-2-1
Majikman
16:19:56
Sorry 3-2-1
patrice
16:20:13
I'm at least American at heart.. so 4-2 @Majikman
patrice
16:20:15

Majikman
16:20:48

What did you get patrice
Majikman
16:22:02
Hi Bob, see numbers coming up.
Majikman
16:22:43
Nice, SSD?
patrice
16:22:55
1TB
Majikman
16:24:12
Sounds like my spec but would go for the 16”. This all depends on the forthcoming big iMac.
BobBeach
16:25:15
I installed Audio Hijack on my M1 Air. It was easy but tedious
patrice
16:25:38
I didn't want the weight & size of the 14.. and actually I see very little difference. Sure you can tell but it's bigger than I thought
patrice
16:25:44
*of the 16
BobBeach
16:26:04
I have the 14 M1 Pro
BobBeach
16:27:36
I stopped using Spotify ages ago. Much prefer Apple Music, especially now it has lossless
patrice
16:27:40
The 14 fells very.. dense. It sure got some heft to it
BobBeach
16:28:43
If you have a lot of Apple devices, Apple Music just fits in so smoothly
BobBeach
16:29:42
No muller today
DaveG
16:29:52
he is MIA
JeffG
16:29:55
It's so quiet without muller!
DaveG
16:30:01
very
BobBeach
16:30:35
I miss him (not!)
Majikman
16:30:38
My quandery is either, Full spec MBP + 32” monitor or iMac Pro 27” and iPad Pro. Waiting to see.
BobBeach
16:30:42
Same here
Majikman
16:30:56
Yes no insults
BobBeach
16:31:00
But as I say, Apple Music is much the best for me
Majikman
16:31:16
Only one I’ve ever used.
patrice
16:31:28
I decided not to go desktop because it doesn't work with how I like to work @Majikman I like moving around and even working in places
BobBeach
16:31:32
Not a bad quandary to have Majikman 😀
Majikman
16:32:25
I need the power for FCP and ArchiCAD that I use but need something mobile as well.
Majikman
16:32:50
I think the costs would be roughly the same.
BobBeach
16:32:57
Surely an MBP then
BobBeach
16:33:34
I’d follow Jeff but I like good music 😂
JeffG
16:33:56
Ha!
Majikman
16:34:26
The iMac would better suit the office and the lighter weight of hte pad would be great for site work.
Majikman
16:34:51
But I do like the look of the MBP
BobBeach
16:35:18
Yes it’s great. Superb display
BobBeach
16:36:46
Nitpicking. You can play any song or album you like anytime
BobBeach
16:39:22
Modern music is completely commoditised. It’s disposable and fist plalaylistsmperfectly

What about Kraftwerk? 😀
patrice
16:40:37
That was the one song! :P
BobBeach
16:42:07
What is Tencent music? Never heard of it
patrice
16:42:18
Must be chinese
BobBeach
16:44:41
Not looking forward to this
Majikman
16:45:06
Sorry this does not get me interested in anyway.
BobBeach
16:45:22
Really not that bad? Faint praise indeed ChuckJ
Majikman
16:46:08
Comapared to Pacific Rim its Shakesphere
BobBeach
16:47:11
I really like The Book of Boba Fett (and I’m not a big SW fan)
Majikman
16:47:46
Lost the feed is it just me?
BobBeach
16:48:27
Yes
Majikman
16:48:35
Back
Majikman
16:51:17
Did Apple get pipped by Microsoft buying Activision.
BobBeach
16:51:17
What a boring strory!
BobBeach
16:52:29
I can see we’re all Peloton users here! 😂
JeffG
16:52:35
Ha!
Majikman
16:53:03
Is that because they got punked by “and Just Like That’ when Mr Big died on peleton.
BobBeach
16:53:22
Does Apple need Peloton when they already have Fitness+ ?
Majikman
16:54:21
Could they expand that to any bike and a screen
BobBeach
16:54:46
They might buy it to eliminate it as a competitor
BobBeach
16:55:46
Why does Callum’s video look so washed out?
Callum
16:56:13
2012 iMac Webcam
BobBeach
16:56:42
get yourself a new MBP Callum 😂
Callum
16:56:42
+ Webcam settings
Majikman
16:57:13
Use an iPhone and Camo 2
Majikman
16:58:20
Filemaker?
Majikman
16:59:00
VisiCalc
Majikman
17:00:16
Long History of buying and assimilating.
Majikman
17:01:00
Apple and the Borg have a lot in common.
BobBeach
17:01:20
Resistance is futile
BobBeach
17:01:59
Fitness+ is considerably cheaper
BobBeach
17:03:06
A sweaty gym full of viruses? No thanks
JeffG
17:03:23
I'm with you Bob
patrice
17:03:28
I hate gyms.. to many douchebags
patrice
17:03:37
*too
BobBeach
17:04:27
Another great segue
Majikman
17:05:59
So smooth Jeff, got to learn how to do that for the Photo Show.
Majikman
17:10:23
Next month is the one @patrice 22.02.2022
patrice
17:10:50
Yeah.. but that's a Tuesday @Majikman
Majikman
17:12:09
I know cause its Quiz night
BobBeach
17:13:43
Pity it’s not HomeKit compatible
Majikman
17:14:09
Pity there out of stock.
ChuckJ
17:18:55
BobBeach - if you want/need that, go to Eve. I wanted cheap since I don't see a long-term need for these.
BobBeach
17:19:58
Yes I’ve looked at Eve but they are expensive for what they do
ChuckJ
17:20:22
Exactly. It really depends on your use case.
Majikman
17:20:53
I’ve just started on season 1, so no spoilers please
BobBeach
17:21:32
Here’s what happens Majikman …………
Majikman
17:22:20
They came, they saw, they had sex, they died, yes I know.
ChuckJ
17:23:38
Sounds like a refrain from a song, Majikman
BobBeach
17:24:11
Beltaloader
Majikman
17:24:28
At school I hated reading, but was introduced to early si-fi, Wells, Verne, Assimov, Bradbury and became hooked.
patrice
17:25:33
+1 for Eve, German company, really lovely people and THE best IoT devices you can find
Majikman
17:26:47
Or Lego Jeff
JeffG
17:27:06
Yes! Or LEGO!
BobBeach
17:27:27
Good show this week (apart from the Godzilla story😂)
JeffG
17:28:09
Godzilla: Awesome or shit. There is no middle ground!
ChuckJ
17:30:32
Go Go Godzilla!
BobBeach
17:30:50
There’s only one patrice 😀
patrice
17:31:03
YES. There can only be one!
