I may be misreading the article, but isn’t the decision to cut physical print but retain digital?

Wow - that cant have been easy to write. Well done for that and for pledging to put things right. I'm a big fan of your products and now quite a fan of the company too 👍

I used power BI at my last job. Very powerful and very easy to use.

So sorry for your loss. Pets are with us for such a short time and it really hurts when they go. Hoping the memories of the good times with her helps. All the best.

If ever there was ‘The Kings New Clothes’ made flesh - this is it.

It’s buggy, with a frequent need to either force quit apps or reboot my phone.

Overall it reminds me of a product designed by a group of people so inwardly focussed that they can’t see the issues with their product that others may have - and a sycophantic need not to rock the boat with managers

I have been using ios26 since its main release and it’s the worst experience I’ve had since switching to Apple with an iPhone 3s. Liquid Glass is dreadful; controls are either hidden until you do a ‘special’ gesture or too hard to read unless you use some ‘accessibility’ feature.

Why not cone to the dark side and get a Mac Mini M4? Although I haven’t found any cookies…..

I really miss using Delphi. It’s just too expensive for a hobbyist now I’ve retired 😢

I’ll give it a go. There are some lovely WW1 figures that I want to print.

Have you done any at 15mm?

Very nice. I’ve quite a few of Turners 6mm files but haven’t printed any yet. From memory they either come ready supported or don’t need supports. What’s your experience of printing them?

I’m not sure I’ve ever before read anything so pompous, elitist or arrogant as this review.

By all means critique the book, but to equate being popular with being rubbish is to denigrate the majority of people whilst self selecting himself as some higher arbiter of taste and quality.
