Tech Addicts 2026 – See You Amiga

Posted on August 9, 2026August 9, 2026 by garethmyles

This week, we’re looking at Apple’s legal challenge against the UK Government over demands to access user data, new EU rules on AI transparency, and the latest leaks surrounding Googlebooks from Dell and Lenovo. We also take a nostalgic trip back to the 1980s with Timex’s futuristic Retroware digital watch, plus some very welcome news involving Amiga and Commodore.

Listening to your thoughts about a streamer with Ethernet. Have you thought about the Manhattan Aero?
The Aero is the only streaming option that Manhattan do. The others are all freeview/freesat based. An alternative is the Netgem Pleio… Have no direct experience of the Pleio but will say that the Aero runs on the Tivo platform and won’t support Now TV. Got 4 of them when I got hacked off with Sky…

I have a couple of compact cameras; a samsung and canon, which are being used regularly since 2010. I rarely use my phone’s cameras even for videos. Almost every event and holiday, those two cameras are present. Oh and I still use my moto mod hasselblad camera with my moto z3 play.
