Gifting Memberships
- Gift ATP memberships to others at atp.fm/gift.
- Recipients must redeem the gift via a code or link provided by the purchaser.
Beeper's iMessage Integration
- Beeper's unauthorized iMessage integration poses security risks and is essentially theft of service.
- Apple is justified in shutting it down, despite Beeper's attempts to address security concerns.
ECC RAM in Apple Silicon
- Apple silicon Macs have on-die ECC but not full sideband ECC like Intel Xeons.
- Full ECC is costly and unlikely for future Macs except maybe the Mac Pro.
