Yesterday NC sent out a “blue alert” because a cop got shot in Georgia. It went out as an emergency alert, which seems like a great way to get people to turn them off. this person was SIX HOURS from where I am, on foot, and never traveled from the original area.

"The whole thing is a hoax," Trump says of the Epstein scandal while Tim Cook is sandwiched between Trump and Vance. Minutes earlier, Cook gave Trump a ridiculous glass and 24k gold statue in a very spectacular display of sucking up.

I think we need to start complaining more about the macOS Tahoe tab design in Safari. It’s awful.

Apparently it’s hard to get matcha right now, and my favorite place is entirely sold out. Anyone have recs? The high grade stuff for koicha. I like vegetal, but not seaweed notes.

Amazon's AI is the worst. Amazon sent me the wrong item, I did a return, Amazon sent me the correct item. Today I got an email that I returned the wrong item (DUH), and was going to get charged. The AI has no flow for this, but tried to convince me I didn't need to speak to someone.

The Trump Mobile Plan website claims that it will include Telehealth with "Contactless Blood Pressure, Heart Rate Monitoring." It seems to imply that these features will work with a biometric face scan, which is very impressive technology for a cellular service.

My number one least favorite change in iOS 26 is the relocation of the new tab button in Safari.

I’m at a little under 24 hours with Liquid Glass, and it’s growing on me. There are parts of it that are great - collapsing nav bar in Safari and TV, app icons, expanding menus, folder backgrounds, and the look in general with the right wallpaper. It’s very background dependent right now.

Speaking as someone who has covered Apple for what feels like forever, this court order is really something special. “For this court, there is no second bite at the Apple.” lol.

Now that I'm a grown up, I have money to buy all the video games I want. But no time to play them. And in the little time I do have, I get carpal tunnel from my steam deck and I have to stop playing and wear a wrist brace.

With an unhinged lunatic running the country, flanked by some of the most unqualified people the U.S. has to offer, why would any company want to build here? Even if it were remotely feasible, moving manufacturing to the U.S. would leave companies even more at the mercy of Trump.

My cat gets bored with his food and stops eating it, but also he doesn’t want to try new food because it is sus and I find this very relatable.

If Apple Intelligence Siri features work 2/3rds of the time, I don’t understand why they’re not released. Has the Siri team used Siri? I wouldn’t say current Siri does what I ask 2/3rds of the time. Genmoji, Image Playground, and notification summaries also aren’t at 100%.

The dismantling of environmental protections is unbelievably sad. How many more plants, insects, and animals will be wiped out? For the last 2 years, I've spent $$$ turning my garden into a native oasis, and it's my only comfort. I'll write more later, but it makes a difference on a micro scale.

10/10 for The Gorge. I haven’t liked most Apple TV+ movies, but this one is a definite win. if you like absurd plots, romance, and soft horror/sci-fi, you’ll like it.
