I remember when Google Plus first came out and with great excitement we all went in to see if this was something cool. I immediately started putting people in circles, thinking this was what I’d been waiting for in a social network. The idea was you could have family in one circle, family you actually […]

NC #700 iPhone X vs XS Cameras, Mark Up Emails Without Third Party App, Security Bits
We put on our party hats (literally) to celebrate 700 episodes of the NosillaCast. Then I brag about how may latest video tutorial on iThoughts made it into ScreenCasts Online Magazine. I try to convince the audience that the iPhone XS is a logical purchase if you already have an iPhone X just on the […]

Last year I answered a Dumb Question from Rod Simmons on whether it was possible to mark up emails on an iPad. In those instructions, I explained how to get an email into PDF format and then save it into Notability, a $10 app from GingerLabs. Rose left a comment on that post, expressing her […]
Continue readingiPhone X vs XS Cameras Compared – Can You Justify the Upgrade?
As you may recall, Steve and I both upgraded from the iPhone X to the iPhone XS.

You would think that doing one nuke and pave in a week was enough for me, but in an unfortunate miscalculation of timing, I forced the second one on myself. I bought the 12.9″ iPad Pro the day it came out in November of 2015. At the time, the middle version was 128GB and it […]
Continue readingMOJAVE CAPS LOCK BUG
It’s been 5 days since Mojave came out and I’ve run across the oddest bug. Yesterday a few times I noticed the caps lock warning icon when I went to enter a password. I looked at my keyboard and the green light wasn’t on, but I tapped the caps lock key a few times till […]
