I have installed Linux Mint and Linux Mint Debian Edition on quite a few MacBooks, Mac Minis and done live boots on iMacs.

Doing a Linux install on a Mac Mini today, in fact.

I am guessing that everything will "just work" on an iMac with 7th gen Intel processor.

    undefined | Apple shares sink 4% on report of foldable iPhone delays

    Apple shares dropped about 4 percent on Tuesday after Nikkei Asia reported that the company is encountering engineering hurdles with its first foldable iPhone. A source familiar with the situation told the outlet that Apple and its supply‑chain partners are “working under a pressured timeline,” but the current fixes are insufficient and more time is needed to resolve the problems. The delay could push back the launch of the foldable device, which had been slated to debut alongside the iPhone 18 in September 2026.

    The foldable phone was expected to be Apple’s next major product innovation, joining the four new iPhone models that the company announces each September. While Samsung and Huawei have offered foldable phones since 2019, Apple’s entry into the segment has been highly anticipated because iPhones generate more than half of Apple’s roughly $143.8 billion revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Nikkei noted that the current memory‑chip shortage is not a factor in the delay; the issue lies primarily with the device’s engineering design.

    Analysts see the April‑through‑early‑May window as critical for Apple to solve the technical challenges before moving into production. If the setbacks persist, the company may need to adjust its product roadmap and could see further pressure on its stock price, especially as competitors continue to expand their foldable‑phone offerings. CNBC reached out to Apple for comment and has not received a response at this time.

      Anyone au fait with on older Intel hardware?

      I see some for sale locally (surplus store) and I think they would make excellent family "just need to do some odds and ends browsing" sort of machines. Maybe as the "family computer" in the dining room.

      Obviously, even if it shipped macOS, it's going to be hilariously out of date. But will they run Linux OK? Nothing fancy, just Mint or something.

      They are 27" A1419 iMacs, with 7th gen i5 and 8gb of memory, if that helps.

          @Amgine I think the more effective place to counteract the trend towards ID everywhere is through privacy laws prohibiting requiring ID where unnecessary (with some detail about what's necessary).

          Requiring proof or attestation of ID to attain verification that one has the name and face one claims to have is necessary: otherwise, LinkedIn (etc.) would be complicit in impersonation, fraud, libel, etc.

          Requiring proof or attestation of ID is unnecessary to, for example, sell alcohol online, but anonymous proof or attestation of age is necessary.

          Requiring proof or attestation of ID or age to, for example, read a factual article should be prohibited under privacy law.

          The benefits and harms can be balanced, and doing so—explicitly allowing the claimed legitimate purpose on the condition of accomplishing that purpose in a manner which defeats the unstated and unjust purpose—would be more effective than delegating it to foreign jurisdictions. For example, it would be much harder to sell digital ID laws to voters if proven systems are already in place for anonymous proof-of-age.

          The privacy jurisdictions could protect citizens and residents by beating the surveillance jurisdictions to it: providing exactly the claimed purpose (e.g., preventing children accessing porn) in a manner which defeats the unstated purpose (e.g., tracking which adult who looks at what). It becomes politically untenable to sell the privacy violating mechanism to voters once they see a privacy preserving one in use: especially when one breach leaks ID documents, and the other breach leaks useless and inconsequential digital signatures of random one-time tokens.

          It's kinda like if, in discussions, legislators were to pretend to believe (etc.) that parts pairing is an anti-theft measure, and to require them to authorize any pairing, free of charge, upon presentation of proof of ownership to Apple or to any regulatorily required designated attestor.

          Pretend to believe them about the purpose of a proof of ID or age requirement, provide a means to prove nothing more than strictly necessary, and require they accept it.

This strategy, still used today for App Store and Apple Music, ensured profitability and fueled the massive success of iTunes, laying the groundwork for Apple's $109 billion services empire.

                                              Immaginate di guidare e, invece di parlare solo con Siri, poter chiacchierare con ChatGpt senza staccare le mani dal volante. Con l’ultimo aggiornamento di Apple, iOS 26.4, questo scenario non è più fantascienza: l’intelligenza artificiale di terze parti entra ufficialmente nei nostri veicoli tramite CarPlay. L’aggiornamento, rilasciato il 24 marzo, non si limita a nuove emoji e piccoli miglioramenti di sistema. Tra le novità più interessanti c’è proprio l’apertura dell’interfaccia di bordo agli assistenti conversazionali esterni, che fino a oggi erano relegati a smartphone e tablet. In pratica, Siri condivide finalmente lo spazio sul cruscotto con chatbot evoluti come ChatGpt, anche se per il momento solo tramite comandi vocali e con un’interfaccia ridotta all’osso per evitare distrazioni durante la guida.
                                              Come attivare ChatGpt in auto
                                              Usare ChatGpt su CarPlay è semplice: basta un iPhone aggiornato a iOS 26.4 e l’ultima versione dell’app OpenAI. Una volta collegato il telefono, via cavo o wireless, l’icona di ChatGpt apparirà sul cruscotto digitale pronta per rispondere a domande, suggerire itinerari o persino raccontare una barzelletta per rendere il viaggio più leggero. Se l’assistente non compare subito, è sufficiente verificare nelle impostazioni CarPlay che ChatGpt sia abilitata per la propria auto.
                                              Occhi aperti alla strada
                                              Il nuovo strumento promette comodità, ma porta anche nuove responsabilità: pedoni, ciclisti e scooteristi devono stare ancora più attenti. La guida distratta resta il principale pericolo, e ora a potenzialmente distrarre ci sono anche le conversazioni con l’IA. Apple ha pensato a un compromesso: nessun testo da digitare, solo comandi vocali, così da ridurre i rischi senza bloccare la novità tecnologica.
                                              Uno sguardo al futuro
                                              Questo è solo l’antipasto: la vera rivoluzione arriverà con iOS 27, che dovrebbe rendere l’integrazione dell’intelligenza artificiale ancora più profonda e funzionale. Per ora, gli automobilisti più curiosi possono sperimentare un assistente virtuale che non vive più solo nello smartphone, ma accompagna ogni viaggio, pronto a rispondere a domande, aiutare nella navigazione o semplicemente fare compagnia al volante.
                                              L'articolo ChatGpt arriva anche in auto: ecco come attivarlo per parlare con l’Ai mentre si è al volante proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano.

                                              ChatGPT is also coming to cars: here’s how to activate it while driving with Ai.

                                              Imagine driving and, instead of talking only with Siri, being able to chat with ChatGPT without taking your hands off the steering wheel. With Apple’s latest update, iOS 26.4, this scenario is no longer science fiction: third-party artificial intelligence officially enters our vehicles via CarPlay. The update, released on March 24th, isn’t just about new emojis and minor system improvements. One of the most interesting new features is the opening of the in-car interface to external conversational assistants, which until today were relegated to smartphones and tablets. In practice, Siri finally shares space on the dashboard with evolved chatbots like ChatGPT, although for the moment only via voice commands and with a stripped-down interface to avoid distractions while driving.

                                              How to activate ChatGPT in your car
                                              Using ChatGPT on CarPlay is simple: you just need an iPhone updated to iOS 26.4 and the latest version of the OpenAI app. Once the phone is connected, via cable or wireless, the ChatGPT icon will appear on the digital dashboard ready to answer questions, suggest routes, or even tell a joke to make the journey lighter. If the assistant doesn’t appear immediately, simply check in CarPlay settings that ChatGPT is enabled for your car.

                                              Keep an eye on the road
                                              The new tool promises convenience, but it also brings new responsibilities: pedestrians, cyclists and scooter riders must be even more attentive. Distracted driving remains the main danger, and now potentially distracting conversations with AI are also present. Apple has thought of a compromise: no text to type, only voice commands, so as to reduce the risks without blocking the technological novelty.

                                              A look to the future
                                              This is just an appetizer: the real revolution will arrive with iOS 27, which should make the integration of artificial intelligence even deeper and more functional. For now, the most curious motorists can experience a virtual assistant that no longer lives only on the smartphone, but accompanies every journey, ready to answer questions, help with navigation or simply keep company at the wheel.

                                              The article ChatGPT arrives also in cars: here’s how to activate it to talk to AI while driving comes from Il Fatto Quotidiano.

                                                Years in, the best thing that can happen with intelligence is still getting their keyboard and in general to something that belongs to this current decade of tech and user experience.

                                                I believe the challenge is a culture of hardware jewellery where the line still goes up for stakeholders and that being enough of a vision for excel-minded CEOs like Tim Cook.

                                                Ordinary people also just love the hardware and don't understand why it hurts to actually use it.

                                                    Apple expanded iOS 18.7.7 to cover all devices from iPhone XR through iPhone 16, protecting against the DarkSword exploit kit that uses multiple zero-days for one-click browser compromise. The update initially only covered 4 older models. Apples doing something rare—backporting security patches across the entire supported device range. When Apple backports to every supported device, the threat is serious enough to break their own update policy.

Wayne exited just 12 days after Apple's 1976 formation, selling his 10% stake for $800, a decision that cost him billions.

The Apple II, Macintosh, iPhone, and eight others didn't just open new markets. They made the old ones obsolete.

The reason? DarkSword, an iOS exploit chain leveraging multiple zero-days for one-click browser-based compromise, is spreading fast. Google TAG confirmed multiple threat actors using it.
