I must say, left-over ginger "latté” and high proof vodka are really hitting the spot right now! 🍵

(why did my mom buy an iPhone SE only a month ago? … she was enthused and worried when I told her it sounds like it might be the last iPhone maybe forever, or maybe for a long time to offer a fingerprint sensor!)

It's wild that even Apple supports (and instructs how to) do a Lightning to Lightning wired transfer. But that seems hardly worthwhile and requires a somewhat obscure adapter usually not used for such a purpose.

Hard to know if it's going over cable or wifi. I know the phones use nearby bluetooth and a variant of a QR code to connect themselves to either the local trusted WiFi or maybe (maybe not anymore?) a multihomed wifi network of their own devising.
Either way, 3 hours? Yikes! Well we will see.
Ah already down to 2 hours.
Even my mom’s iPhone 8 to SE №3 only took about 1 hour over wifi.

the main alternative is bluetooth handshaking then Wifi to Wifi, but I'm interested in trying out the cabling route

About to unpack my new iPhone and do the Migration Assistant (Well it's called QuikChek or something 😛)
I am a little nervous. I have done this before, know how it works, and just guided my mom doing it a month ago but ♪What about Little Ol Me?♪
Gonna try it with Cable-to-Cable from iPhone 12Pro. Strangely erotic.
In prior examples, Lightning to Lightning is apparently possible but too silly.
Less worried about iPhone data but rather that cell service will transfer properly. Usually does! 🤞

Does every iPhone in an iPhone 5 case eventually have its battery go haywire and bloat the screen off the housing?
My poor wittle iPhone SE № 1 is no longer a back-up iPhone, it is the patient. And soon for the morgue (Apple Store recycling program).
I have a bunch of junk for Apple but I'll wait til after the Holidays since it'd be mean to saddle them with it right now.

How did I manage to get so drunk as to buy a very high quality used Mac mini from OWC? It might be actually useful to me! And the price was outrageous!
(I actually kept going and bought two more MacBook Airs and once they opened for business in the morning they let me cancel those orders) 😥

I will probably get an ARM Macintosh before April. My current one is okay and since it doesn't support any of the "AI" features, MacOS Sasquatch has nothing for me!

I'm still very pleased with my intel 2018 Mac mini. When the right specs popped up on the Apple refurb site, I pounced. That did take until February after the thingie was announced, same as this time, prior October.
(although I was totally cheated out of my plan to eventually get an external GPU in a box …)

It occurs to me that while the world is rapt over the M4 Mac mini, perhaps a refurb M2 Pro Mac mini would suit me because it's a drop in replacement for my 2018. Otherwise I might need more adapters and hubs for USB-A stuff.
Buuuut probably not this one.

Delivery by Tuesday. I bet they have exactly 1 in Elk Grove and they're desperate to get rid of it. Not today, satan!

Alright, fine, Hulu, you win. Twelve bucks for a year? It is getting kind of obnoxious to stream from my main Mac in the living room while falling asleep.

Are people sure you can actually upgrade the SSD in M4 Mac Mini? Or just that it can be removed and … … … underpants gnomes?

No. I think the gist is with iOS 18 and especially 18.1 if the iPhone thinks it's out of its owner's control for a while (no network access at all) it turns off biometric login. That's it. It’s a smart Phone!
