    Hey, you. Yeah, you. You look like the kind of person who likes a good deal. Well, until Friday, you can pre-order my upcoming sci-fi heist caper, ETERNITY&#39;S TOMB for 25% off at Waterstones. Just use code SUMMER26. https://www.waterstones.com/book/eternitys-tomb/dan-moren/9781915998026

    This is my new favorite instance of book marketing spam. Ah, yes, the line that really stuck with you is THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION OF THE BOOK.

    Thanks so much to @ecschwarz for having me on the latest episode of his podcast. Ton of fun walking down memory lane. https://schwarztech.net/podcast/2-dan-moren

    RE: https://zeppelin.flights/@sixcolors/116562203103540875 Apple continuing to ignore the notch on the MacBook display is dumb. But Bartender&amp;#39;s trying to turn it into a Dynamic Island for the Mac, which is pretty cool.

    @geraint Oh fun. I&amp;#39;ve alerted the authorities.

    UK friends! This week, you can pre-order ETERNITY’S TOMB at 20% off *and* support local independent bookstores by using code PREORDER20 over at Bookshop.org! Why would you not? It’s a no-brainer! (Well, technically there is a brain in the book.) https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/eternity-s-tomb-dan-moren/2f1df51143d9bb6d?ean=9781915998026&amp;amp;next=t

    RE: https://hachyderm.io/@lexfri/116557131353461867 On last week&amp;#39;s episode of @rebound, @Moltz and I were disappointed in the lack of Mac apps for managing GIF collections and apparently we made Lex do this.

    Well, I guess they had to live and let Dye leave, because at Apple tomorrow never Dyes. Meta can afford to Dye another day, but us users, we&amp;#39;ve got no time to Dye.

    It&amp;#39;s objectively funny that George Lucas could not stop tinkering with the original Star Wars trilogy and yet apparently looks at the prequels and thinks &amp;quot;Nailed it.”

    Maybe John Ternus is just TOO nice to be Apple CEO. https://zeppelin.flights/@sixcolors/116495510000410296

    @johnvoorhees Uhhh, $254.9B? I&amp;#39;d check that balance sheet again. :)

    After a longer than expected absence, your Star Wars pals @dmoren, @TSindelar and Kat return to cover not two but *four* episodes of Maul - Shadow Lord. We discuss keeping car chases interesting, Inquisitor nomenclature and the five successful habits of Sith Lords. https://theincomparable.com/acp/110

    RE: https://mastodon.farktronix.com/@jacob/116507233766764092 This is awesome. I remember that first year we were writing about the iPhone at Macworld, and we had to either just take pictures of the screen with another camera or jailbreak it to be able to take screenshots.

    Hey, it&amp;#39;s my birthday. No need for presents: just, as the guys said, be excellent to each other. But I guess if you *really* wanted to get me something you could preorder my next book, ETERNITY&amp;#39;S TOMB. Though seven months is a long time to wait for a gift, I guess. https://dmoren.com/eternitys-tomb

    RE: https://zeppelin.flights/@dmoren/116137581467036265 In case you missed this morning&amp;#39;s announcement: new book! From me! Preorders open now.

    RE: https://wandering.shop/@aleen/116364011723790793 Maybe Tim could engage on this. Open a dialogue. You know, the classic &amp;quot;I WANT TO DO A GENOCIDE&amp;quot; / &amp;quot;Maybe don&amp;#39;t do a genocide?&amp;quot; debate.

    I convinced my wife, a PC user, to spend two weeks with the MacBook Neo. Here&amp;#39;s what won her over and what didn&amp;#39;t! (@sixcolors members, you also get a bonus podcast episode with the two of us talking about it!) https://sixcolors.com/post/2026/04/a-pc-user-spends-two-weeks-with-the-macbook-neo/

    In weird coincidences, my kid is almost *exactly* as old today as I was when Steve Jobs announced the Macintosh.

    Listening to classic rock, flirting with younger tech, buying flashy trophies—have we considered that Apple is just having a mid-life crisis?

    RE: https://relayfm.social/@clockwise/116331131638772037 Oh no, not again

    On the downside, my attempt to finally move 130,000 emails out of my inbox is going to take until Monday night. On the upside, I&amp;#39;ve never been so productive.

    In case you missed it yesterday, we coerced my old boss Phil Michaels to resurrect the Pundit Showdown—after more than a decade!—for our 650th episode of @clockwise! Come listen to him put the question to me, @jsnell , and @mikahsargent. https://www.relay.fm/clockwise/650

    When the Artemis II crew goes into their communications blackout, it&amp;#39;d be pretty funny if we all hid and then yelled SURPRISE!

    Yes, I am the total nerd watching the NASA livestream in the Vision Pro on the mooooon.

    RE: https://zeppelin.flights/@sixcolors/116330540926959858 Looking back on 50 years of Apple through my own personal lens. Including some old pictures of me. 😅

  • Post #928533

    I love that the Artemis crew really runs the gamut: the oldest person to leave low earth orbit since Apollo, the first woman to travel beyond low earth orbit, the first person of color to travel beyond low earth orbit, and, of course, the first Canadian to travel beyond low earth orbit.

    RE: https://freeradical.zone/@sohan/116252667045831722 Imagine spending all this money to “save” money.

    Hey you—yeah, YOU. You like saving money, right? Well, right now you can preorder my new novel, ETERNITY’S TOMB, for 25% off at Barnes &amp;amp; Noble, along with *any other preorders*, so basically you should buy a lot of books. Use code PREORDER25. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/eternitys-tomb-dan-moren/1149558305?ean=9781915998026
