Chris and Marty are back with another lively MacChat! Chris kicks things off with a nostalgic find: Clykey, a free Mac app that turns your keyboard into a typewriter, complete with clacks, dings, and carriage returns. The conversation shifts to ChatGPT-5 on the Mac, exploring the differences between the free and Plus plans, and how tools like MacGPT make everyday writing, translation, and even logo design more accessible. Chris shares how she’s been using AI for projects like tactile graphics on the Monarch braille display, creating tutorials for her upcoming Learning Your Mac website, and exploring image descriptions and translations. The two dive into highlights from MacStock, featuring an interview with podcaster Allison Sheridan of the Nosilla Cast. Allison reflects on MacStock’s history, the community, and what makes the event so welcoming and valuable for all levels of Mac users. Marty surprises Chris with the news that he’s picked up the new Mac Mini M4, giving his first impressions on performance, design, and setup. Plus, a look ahead at what’s next for macOS, accessibility on new Macs, and the evolving Unmute Podcast Network lineup. Listen in for typewriter nostalgia, AI insights, MacStock stories, and the thrill of unboxing Apple’s latest hardware.
