    Fantastic that every area has rounded corners exactly matching the screen corners but… there is no more space for the content and this is unusable?!? #designIsHowItWorks

    RE: https://social.wildeboer.net/@jwildeboer/116517715031028440 I&amp;#39;ve said it before but the “average&amp;quot; screens in Apple weather are fantastic to understand how messed up the climate is.

    Why does Firefox Software update suddenly wants to scan my local network, and prevents Firefox to update/launch if I refuse? Really hope there is a good reason, that is not “so mozilla can fingerprint you and track you…” @firefoxwebdevs @Firefox

    UK Local election candidates: if you can&amp;#39;t even bother to publish a paragraph about you, why do you think we should vote for you?

    6 month ago I switched from an iPhone 12 mini to a 17 Pro. Here’s a mini review: - I didn’t like the size at first, but got used to it in about 2w - The battery life upgrade is fantastic: went from constant charging anxiety to not having to care. Easily handle a full intense day, often 2 days.

    #localelections in a lot of 🇬🇧 today… “You mean they actually vote for the lizards?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Oh yes,&amp;quot; said Ford with a shrug, &amp;quot;of course.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;But,&amp;quot; said Arthur, going in for the big one again, &amp;quot;why?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Because if they didn&amp;#39;t vote for a lizard,&amp;quot; said Ford, &amp;quot;the wrong lizard might get in.” - The Hitchiker guide to the galaxy. https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/7484962-ford-said-on-its-world-the...

    Brain spent my night background processing to find out where else I’ve seen the actor playing one of the scientists in the movie #projectHailMary . Turns out it’s https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4093657/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk, who played the consulting expert in the so accurate it hurts comedy skit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKorP55Aqvg. I mean it makes sense, the guy was already an expert in red lines 😂

    It’s wild how Weather apps summarise. A bit of rain at midnight, they dry all day, and even sunny most of the afternoon, yet the one icon is rain?!? I care about what the weather is when I’m out and about during the day, not a few h at night… Wonder if that’s Californians finding rain concerning…

    RE: https://mas.to/@carnage4life/116324029728877255 It&amp;#39;s the usual “AI can do everybody’s job but mine”. Because when it&amp;#39;s not your own domain, you can&amp;#39;t tell the result is crap.

    Anyone know if there a way for a kid to get a WhatsApp account without a phone contract?

    That &quot;linkedIn Speak” translation option on Kagi is quite good and funny

    @Gargron@mastodon.social what about tv shows? Pluribus was one gorgeous shot after another.

    One of these MacBook Neo ports is USB3 (10Gb/s), can connect a screen. The other is only USB 2, no screen, 20x slower. Old Apple would have differentiated them.

    RE: https://tapbots.social/@paul/116171408115310742 Hot take: if you already have a mac, the MacBook Neo was never meant for you. It&amp;#39;s about expanding the market. Apple is aiming to get new $ from brand new mac customers, not get fewer $ from current customers.

    The chutzpah of advertising computers as &amp;quot;running chat AI apps like Chat GPT”… The only thing these apps do is send your text input to a server and displaying an answer.

    So when you have to announce the position in charge of leading environment, social and DEI initiative is eliminated, and their staff will be reassigned to a new general counseil that was a Trump appointee… really clever to do it while we’re all distracted by the design dude leaving. https://zeppelin.flights/@sixcolors/115663645841744435 Cc @dmoren@zeppelin.flights
