Is there a better way to do what I do? Why does my stuff still look like it did 5 years ago. It’s time to speed up that workflow or find some new graphics, plugins or apps. See what you’ve been missing out on in Tool Much Fun.

You think you had it bad? When I tried to upgrade to iOS 26.5 it failed and wouldn’t start up. Which meant it was time for the dreaded erase and restore. Here’s what happened to me when I did it and what might help you if you have to.

I’m pleased that PocketCasts has allowed me to list the new podcast version of Tool Much Fun in their directory for free. Still trying to decide if I should pay Podbean to list it in Apple Podcasts and I Heart Radio. Thoughts? pca.st/2s9tbbm3

So many different ways to download and install #plugins! This series of posts compares them, which is kinda obscure but I'd never seen anyone else do it, so I thought it would be interesting to both fellow musicians and vendors alike.

Hey #mac users of Bluesky, I have released my first utility. It’s an Automator Action that copies the URLs hidden in the metadata of your downloads into the Comments field so you can see & sort them. Donationware. www.uncaughtexception.com.au/store/p/wher... #macsoftware #automator #productivity

Do you really think people that use AI want it to replace making things traditionally? I never read “put down your pencil”. Here’s a new analogy: Astroturf. It’s artificial but wasn’t invented to replace all grass worldwide.

A New Analogy for AI: Astroturf — Uncaught Exception

When debating AI use, people use analogies to explain their point of view. Here's one I’ve never seen: Astroturf! It never replaced real grass, and AI won’t replace traditional methods.
