In a mammoth effort, Mac User Group volunteers have indexed every issue of the group's monthly magazine from March 1980 to April 2017.

One volunteer has come up with a stand-alone app that uses FileMaker Pro and can theoretically directly open an individual article in the Magazine folder from the index' search feature.

But it's half-baked. Both the app originator & the chief indexers refuse to update past OS X 10.6.8 and their index doesn't work well with the version of FileMaker used (v9) when the end user is running Sierra.

Allegedly, the app wallah is working on updating the app to use a newer FileMaker runtime. Can't come soon enough.

maybe so, but we're dealing here with a future OS, and one incorrectly named. I should have been searching for info on iOS 11, not 10.4.

Nibbling on a bit of mild cheddar cheese. Other than a pale colour you have to read the ingredients to learn it's made from goats milk.

I modified my query to searching for iOS 11. #BrainFade

Who woulda thunk it? Take a nice 12- month aged cheddar & raise its delightfulness by adding ginger pieces & candied lemon & orange peel.

I sound my barbaric #yawp over the roofs of the world. Didn't have to re-enter account credentials with the latest beta of #yawp.

Fuck this. Trying an internet search on hardware requirements for iOS 10.4 & keep getting Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger results.

A friend upgraded from a 6-yr-old 11-in MB Air to new 13-in Touchbar MB Pro today. The two are virtually the same width, with the MBP being a tad thicker & a little deeper. It's also about 300 grams heavier. It has a smaller footprint than the 13- MBA.

I was trying to work out why Launch Services on my Mac kept giving me the option of LibreOffice as well as the newer Mac App Store-sourced LibreOffice Vanilla, as I had definitely deleted/uninstalled the former from the Mac.

I have nutted it out: LibreOffice is a major component of my Nisus Writer Pro app, which was acquired in 2015 as part of a software bundle.
