Battle Of The Worst-Writing Apps
Worst-Alternative title: iaWriter vs. Ulysses or the battle for writing minimalism For worst-writer, dear worst-reader, it all started with some kinda tex-edit program or what today would be called a note app. Or maybe not. Yeah. Anywho. So it started. As in the late friggin 1980s. I’m worst-writing, of course, about writing on computer machines … Continue reading Battle Of The Worst-Writing Apps

Don’t Panic
So. Like. This happened the other day. I’m in town approaching the bio-market and out of the blue sirens start going off all around me, even on my phone. At first I startled, thinking it was a bank robbery on account I was at that moment walking past a bank. Then I remembered. Oh yeah! … Continue reading Don’t Panic

Pseudo Review: iPad Air 5 2022
Alternative worst-title: Has worst-writer purchased his last Macintosh (laptop)? One week later pseudo-review here. Took a few years, dear worst-reader. You know. Took a few years before I came round. Round to what, you ask. Well. The biggest reason I never really liked iPads and barely tolerate iPhones is because of one piece of modern … Continue reading Pseudo Review: iPad Air 5 2022
Boy You Best Prey I Bleed Real Soon
https://youtu.be/ux6zXguiqxM?t=535 Sub-worst-title: Thoughts on Apple’s Sept, 2022 event. First, dear worst-reader, the title of this worst-post is from the song Silent All These Years by Tori Amos. If, btw, you want to melt worst-writer, put me near Madame Amos. I would jump off mountains for her, bring down aeroplanes full of conservative idiots for her, … Continue reading Boy You Best Prey I Bleed Real Soon
Exploring Streaming, Finding Budgie
Volume control/Preamp from Mac Volume control/Preamp from the app Worst-title 2: Doing my worst-best to discover the convenience of music streaming As you’all may or mayn’t know, dear worst-readers, as an Apple fanboy, if I’m gonna finally break down (give-in) and try music streaming, it’s gotta be with Apple’s music service. Or? Indeed-1 After a … Continue reading Exploring Streaming, Finding Budgie
Micro Blog v Social Media
Gotta worst-write a bit about Musk-Twitter or is it Twitter-Musk, dear worst-reader. First. I remember when Twitter started. I wracked my brain trying to figure out what the heck it is. To this day I still don’t quite know. But then I joined twitter around 2007. I liked the idear of there being a micro-blog … Continue reading Micro Blog v Social Media
The iOS Regime
Can't update because you made it obsolete. Bitches! Ok. As you may or may not have worst-read, dear worst-reader, I’m an Apple fanboy. Well. I am until I boot-up my Raspberry Pi and get lost in Linux. #Nomatter. The thing about Apple is, I like MacOS. Is it the best operating system? Don’t know. It … Continue reading The iOS Regime
Pseudo-Review: Keychron K2 V2
Worst-title 2: This is one cool keyboard that I didn’t know I needed Every once-a-once, dear worst-reader, whether in a computer section of a retailer or fiddling around at an Apple Store, I always give keyboards a test. The thing is, as a MacBook user for the past (going on) twenty years, I’ve never really … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: Keychron K2 V2
Pseudo-Review and Long-Term Test: RPi4 As A Desktop PC
Worst-writer's desktop Today, dear worst-reader, it is time to take another look at worst-writer’s experience with a/the wonder of the tech world. I’m worst-writing, of course, about nothing other than my favourite computing platform the Raspberry Pi. Specifically. I’m reviewing today my trusty Raspberry Pi 4 after having fiddled with it for the past two … Continue reading Pseudo-Review and Long-Term Test: RPi4 As A Desktop PC
Apple Fanboy Unfun And Bath Salts
Even though there’s a lot of know-non-sense here about worst-writer’s tech preferences, I’m always afeared to admit that I am an Apple fanboy (aghast). Which means, it cannot go un-worst-said: my choice of tech is NEVER about what one can do (w/ tech) but about what one can circumvent to make due (with tech). Or … Continue reading Apple Fanboy Unfun And Bath Salts
Oldest Profession vs Three Trillion Dollar Man
Screenshot from the #interwebnets Disclaimer: if you’d prefer to skip all the/my worst-writing about the pitfalls of being an Apple fanboy, scroll down to buzz-word-monopoly. As an Apple fanboy let me first get this out of the way: technology is never about what you can do but instead about what you cannot do. Taking that … Continue reading Oldest Profession vs Three Trillion Dollar Man
The Crypto Game Show
Source of pic: Bitcoin logo Why am I surprised, dear worst-reader? Did I believe that Bitcoin was impenetrable? Did I think that the government or authorities would never crack the kryptonite--that could take down the likes of Bitcoin? Or did I simply think, ultimately, Government doesn't really care--if there may or may not be some … Continue reading The Crypto Game Show
Update: Tech Rig Galore And Fun Discoveries
Worst-writer's Feb 2021 desk rig. The pic above, dear worst-reader, is the latest and greatest desktop setup of my tech world. As you may or may not note from any of my SBC and tech posts (https://worstwriter.com/tag/sbc/), I'm a cheap-o when it comes to tech stupid-money. That said, myself and my better-half are Apple fan-boys. … Continue reading Update: Tech Rig Galore And Fun Discoveries
Update: Non NAS NAS Galore, SBCs, Daily Rig
How 'bout a bit of a worst-update regarding worst-writer's tech krapp? Yes. No. Well, then... buckle up butter cup cause I haven't typed anything all day and I am seriously itchy. Or maybe not. As of late 2020 there's nothing left to be (technically) done, changed, updated, booted (into the bin) or saved in my … Continue reading Update: Non NAS NAS Galore, SBCs, Daily Rig
Desk Rig While Migrating To Linux
In worst-writer's quest to eventually (when exactly?) dump MacOS, I've been dabbling in Linux for quite some time. The problem, of course, is that I'm a very slow learner. Add to that the relative slowness of previous RPi's, I've not yet felt comfortable with Rasbian or any other Linux distro on the RPI3, with the … Continue reading Desk Rig While Migrating To Linux
Worst-Road Travelled: The NON NAS NAS
Well, there you have it, dear worst-reader. As I've indicated in many a-worst-post here and there, I hate the NAS industry. In fact, even though I kinda grew up with it, worked in it, played with it, I sort-a hate the tech industry. But that's neither here or elsewhere. And so. Of all the tech … Continue reading Worst-Road Travelled: The NON NAS NAS
What Could You Get Away With
No. Seriously. Dear worst-reader. What could you get away with if there were no rules? For don't you know, just the other day, I came across something that blew my mind. It was about getting away with things. Or was it about there being no rules (in life)? Nomatter. While scanning the news and perhaps … Continue reading What Could You Get Away With
SBC Rundown
As I've stated here and there in this worst-blog, Steve Jobs had it right. Long live the post-PC era. Long live... Steve? With that in mind, as of the end of 2019, I've got two too many SBC's in my abode. You know, post-PC stuff galore, dear worst-reader. Oh what to do, what to do, what … Continue reading SBC Rundown
First RPi4
Thought I was gonna wait a bit longer, dear worst-reader. You know, being the never-buy first iteration consume-to-survive guy that I am, at the least, I was gonna put off getting this till the thermal problems were dealt with in version 2.0. But then it was required of me for Xmas that I post some … Continue reading First RPi4
Pine64 Taking The Lead For Home Digital Storage Galore?
This is kind of an update to here and maybe here. This is also kind of a battle, dear worst-reader. If you haven't worst-guessed by now, it's between worst-moi, Raspberry Pi and Pine64--all at the level of SBCs, baby. That is, for the moment, Pine64 is winning my non-NAS NAS competition. Or. How does one build … Continue reading Pine64 Taking The Lead For Home Digital Storage Galore?
Pseudo-Review: iPhone 6s > iPhone 11
Why go to 10 (or Xr or 8) when you can go to 11? For that is the worst-question, eh, dear worst-reader? I mean, wouldn't we all go to 11, always skipping the others, if we could? Or is the issue mute? Nomatter. The moment I'd been avoiding for so long by nursing my iPhone … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: iPhone 6s > iPhone 11
Pods, Ears, Tech Mediocre Galore
Pseudo-review of Soundcore earbuds, baby. Consuming to survive, dear worst-reader. How's it going for you? Otherwise, I bought these earbuds a few months back while you-know-who/what online store had a sale. Got them for half-price, too, don't you know. But I suppose I should also give credit where it's due regarding how I bought something … Continue reading Pods, Ears, Tech Mediocre Galore
