CCATP #586 – Bart Busschots on Free, Freemium, Free-for-now & Freepi

On 29 March 2019, a few weeks after this article was originally published, TechCrunch reported that Apple has canceled AirPower. Might be time to take a serious look at Ampere’s Unravel.

I start off with what’s supposed to be a review of the OWC 14-port Thunderbolt 3 dock but which turns into a lesson on USB and Thunderbolt speeds and specs but does do a comparison of the OWC against the other docks I’ve reviewed. Then Allister Jenks tells us about the to-do app GoodTask 3 […]

OWC, CalDigit, Belkin & Accell Thunderbolt 3 Docks Compared Every once in a while I find myself descending into madness when I work on a review.

Use emmet for productivity and great justice! Greetings Allison, and fellow NosillaCast-aways. Caleb, here to talk about another geeky tool. Even if you aren’t ‘stuck in’ on Programming by Stealth you may still find yourself writing HTML for a variety of reasons. You may have also come across the need to generate a large, even […]

It is with great sadness that I tell you that NosillaCastaway Honda Bob passed away this week, after graft vs. host disease destroyed his body following a bone-marrow transplant a few years ago.
