‘Delete, delete’

My MacBook would make a rubbish cyberman: its delete key is broken.

This time, the keyboard breakage is nothing to do with me; it’s a fault with the keyboard used in this model and others. I contacted Apple to have it fixed for free. Ordinarily, I would brave the Apple shop to have it fixed. Extraordinarily, I can’t brave the Apple shop because of the imminent and likely introduction of lockdown 2.0. Instead, Apple is posting me a box to send it off to them in.

It’s possible that they’ll delete all my data – eep. I’m making sure my Time Machine (sadly, not a Tardis) is up to date while I await the box.
