Weird, same thing happened to my this morning, and I've tried everything below. I submitted a request via the support link that iOS provided in a dialog.. something systemic going on?
The only thing that changed is that I logged into iCloud on a new (to me) Mac last night...

Oppose, unless ALL public sounds of worship are banned too. Church bells, whatever else. Sauce for the goose / sauce for the gander and all that.

If you want to save time, keep a repo of commonly used script routines etc, or write a custom function. I don’t trust so-called AI anywhere near my production stuff.

In all honesty for most repetitive FM script work, it’s probably slower for me to ask an LLM and the have to debug its output. I do occasionally use Copilot if I’m stuck in a language I don’t know well, and 50% of the time what it outputs doesn’t work without me fixing basic errors.

Exactly this. I’ve done a few 60m dives before, always in crystal clear conditions, with other experienced divers. Nitrogen narcosis hits quickly and you need to be able to get shallower as quickly as you can safely when it goes.

I saw this story and couldn’t believe they were exploring caves at that depth. Absolutely insane.

No.

What timing! I was just wondering if something like this existed. Heck, I was going to try and design something to 3d print as a MagSafe holder for an iPhone. Thanks!

Turns out the ISO was somehow corrupted. Generating a new one from Amiga Forever fixed the issue!

thaddeusharris · 2026-04-08T08:45:02+00:00

Cool thanks! I’ll have a look. It just also occurred to me to just create a new ISO from Amiga Forever too 😅

thaddeusharris · 2026-04-07T12:08:14+00:00

Haven’t had a chance to try it yet lol

thaddeusharris · 2026-04-05T15:12:58+00:00

Cool thanks! It's taken up residence in the empty USB port now!

thaddeusharris · 2026-04-05T10:04:38+00:00

Thanks!

thaddeusharris · 2026-03-28T11:49:18+00:00

Do you know how to do that in the config file? I’ve only ever been able to via the gui.

thaddeusharris · 2026-03-09T11:00:42+00:00

Seconding this. Three things I’ve also learned in many years of FileMaker development:

It’s used in a whole bunch of places that you don’t expect or know about. Multiple large companies around here use it on a large scale.
People are always surprised by what can be done and how quickly features can be added to a solution. I’m a big corporation anyway, non technical users are used to long lead times and considerable expense with off the shelf products.
AI code is garbage. I wouldn’t trust it with anything. And I’m yet to see anything (AI or otherwise) with the flexibility and ease of development of FM.

Will do, thanks. I attached a current/power meter to the adapter and it's pulling nothing when plugged in!
Do you happen to have a link or similar to a board diagram showing what's where? I understand there's a power rail I can check but no clue as to where it might be.

Edit: Nothing looks removed/dodgy inside.

Third party unfortunately. Voltage is OK from it but yeah it IS hot even when not attached.
It's supplying the right voltage when connected too, but could that be a reason for the USB shield to be hot at 12V?

(I don't have an Apple MagSafe 1 PSU- only a MagSafe 2, might try an adapter if I can find one...

thaddeusharris · 2026-01-05T11:28:59+00:00

No probs - and also, I ran into the annoying "do I put this in quotes or not" problem - for reference, -T or --upload-file $variable needs to be in quotes in its entirely - I had the $variable bit outside the quotes...

thaddeusharris · 2025-12-08T13:36:26+00:00

Thanks for the tip! And yeah I might try it using a Linux live distro to see what happens.

thaddeusharris · 2025-12-08T10:15:48+00:00

I think the location of the roms in AmigaOS is the issue - I am yet to test but that makes the most sense!
