My hero this week is Representative Zooey Zephyr of the Montana House of Representatives, who has had enough of weird laws from scared politicians that want to control all aspects of life, right down to the clothes we wear.
Ms. Zephyr is a transgender person, so she knows what she is talking about. And with her speech, she kills the latest bill that would otherwise have limited people's freedom to dress as they please.
More power to you @ZoAndBehold! 💪🏼
@siracusa I design and build custom speakers for clients and someone came to me with the same complaint as you, saying “I want new speakers for my computer but commercial ones sound bad, look offensive, or are too big. Help”.
The result was these (7.5”x4.75”x9” WHD), which sit horizontally (on thin stands) below the computer monitors with a woofer on the bottom and full range driver at the front. In-room they play to flat +-1dB to 40Hz. Unfortunately I never got a photo of the pair of them.
After building an app in Swift Playgrounds on an M1 iPad Pro I’m moving it to Xcode for more development, but my Mac is an Intel MacBook Air… immediately I noticed:
1. The laptop gets hot
2. There’s a constant whoosh from its fan
3. Everything is slow
4. The battery drained in about two hours
An Apple Silicon Mac looks really nice right now.
