I did laugh.
Delivered today, a Logitech Casa pop-up desk that resembles a large book or photo album when closed. Opened, it reveals a Bluetooth keyboard, Bluetooth trackpad, USB-C charging cable and an angled stand ideal for tablets or laptops up to 17-in screen size. For the latter, it raised the laptop screen to a comfortable working height. The Casa Keys (keyboard) and Casa Touch (trackpad) both have three selectable Bluetooth channels for connecting immediately to three different devices. I have set them to work with my laptop on ch 1, iPad Air on ch 2 and iPad Mini on ch 3. https://amzn.asia/d/c9klpyr

Messing about with the 2012 Mac mini again. It runs macOS 12.7.6 Monterey, can’t go any higher that that OS. Consequently I need some way other than Safari to access my numerous social media feeds. On the mac App Store several years ago I found Friendly Social Browser, which is a way of creating individual web apps within the overall structure of Friendly Social. It’s mostly effective except for put.io and Nextdoor. For the former there’s a good app called Apero on the Mac App Store, but Nextdoor is proving difficult.
I always see more people walking into Costco than out of it.
But the meat is cheap, so I don't ask questions.
