podfeet<p>In this week's episode of Chit Chat Across the Pond <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@adamengst" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>adamengst</span></a></span> of TidBITS joins me to explain the bug in macOS Sequoia 15.2 that affected a low-level system tool called Apple System Restore or ASR.
