@factcheck.org put together an excellent article debunking the misleading statements and outright lies regarding climate change and renewable energy from the recent UN address. The truth is more important now than ever. www.factcheck.org/2025/09/trum...

Seems that #AI copies human behavior closer than we'd like to admit.

It's rather amusing how around half of the "new" features in iOS 26 are already present on Android/Pixel. In some cases (circle to search, call screening, adjustable snooze length), they're been around for many years. Also, Material 3 Expressive looks so much better than Liquid Glass.

This is absolutely ludicrous. I still have my Canon PowerShot SD600 sitting in a drawer somewhere. Hard to imagine that digicams are trending again.

FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This is the biggest news since Calculator and Weather came to the iPad.

Apparently, machines are creatures of habit, much like humans.

There's a story about how Steve Jobs said Apple's design team was "taking the Apple logo in vain" by putting it beside every menu item, leading to the command symbol (⌘) instead. This new internal drive icon isn't it. We do not need more Apples on the screen. Minimalism is so boring and uninspired.

Defying all odds, Roku has managed to select a streaming service name even worse than "Max" or "Peacock."

Just finished the new season of King of the Hill. This revival absolutely serves the original series justice. It's funny and heartfelt and it continues its story so seamlessly that it's easy to forget that it seemingly ended 15 year ago.

A better idea: how about @nypost.com moves to California and stays there?

I've been self-hosting most of my services for a while now (TV, movies, music, audiobooks, photos, notes, RSS reader), and it really can be such a chore to keep your own little personal cloud running smoothly. That said, it's absolutely worth it.

Lesson learned: don't vibecode without backing up important data and/or version control. #AI

It's almost like excessive use of transparency is a legibility nightmare and harms the user experience. Who would've thought?

In the job market? Don't be surprised if you speak to an AI-powered "virtual recruiter" who will misunderstand you, cut you off, and hang up on you.

I cannot get over these ridiculous little cars and how I kind of want one.

Apparently Sliwa being hit by a taxi last election wasn't enough. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShMq... #NYCMayoralRace

No matter how you feel or what you've heard about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, I urge you to listen to his interview with @npr.org. His poise, eloquence, and resolve are incredibly refreshing in a political climate of hostility and incivility, and the establishment should absolutely be worried.

"Stop the madness! Start the movie!"

It says a lot that the feature I am most excited for in #macOSTahoe is the slightly redesigned Finder icon.

Who knew that brokering peace in the Middle East was so hard? /s

Taking 18 OS revisions to add something as basic as native custom ringtones from audio files is the most Apple thing ever, especially when Android has had this capability from its earliest versions.

Imagine showing someone from 10 years ago this notification without context. What interesting times we live in.

It's fascinating how social acceptance towards new technology can change in just over a decade. In the early 2010s, Google Glass was demonized by misguided fears of surreptitious recording and privacy invasion. In present day, Google, Meta and Snap are predicting a resurgence in the form factor.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. #Apple #WWDC #macOS #macOSTahoe #UI #UX

Get transported back to the '80s and groove out to some retro summer tunes. Poolsuite just got a really slick redesign and an #Android app (finally!).

#AI will disrupt education, and it already has.

When are people going to realize that #AI cannot be trusted for factual information? It will confidently confabulate things rather than admit it doesn't know something.

This hits the nail on the head. The user experience of the streaming age is terrible, and we all let it happen.

"You will not lose your job to AI, but will lose it to someone who uses it."

Call me a technophobe, but I don't think it's a great idea to take an experimental, unreliable, untrustworthy technology that most adults barely understand and encourage pre-teens (as in, literal children) to use it. #technews #ai #gemini #google

Let's revert the name to Columbus Day, but it will no longer be named after the explorer. It will now be in honor of beloved film director Chris Columbus. Just like what happened with Fort Bragg.

Delayed notifications are the Achilles' heel of the Pixel, and it's astounding that not only this problem is still around years later, but that it is somehow getting worse.

The art of the deal, ladies and gentlemen.

With all the furor regarding Bluesky's new verification program, I find it odd that no one is pointing out how similar the new "Trusted Verifiers" feature is to X/Twitter's affiliate verification that been rolled out for close to three years now. It's one of the few changes that they got right.

Watch this absolutely breathtaking piece from 60 Minutes on the mysterious migration of monarch butterflies.

Next season of Black Mirror is going to be 🔥.

MAYA: Make America Yippy Again.

“95% of new code is going to be AI-generated (in the next five years),” says Kevin Scott, the CTO of Microsoft. We're going to be seeing some outstandingly high levels of abstraction in the next few years thanks to AI coding assistants like Bolt and Lovable. #AI #coding #SWE

Seeing is no longer believing.

I can't help but be fascinated by the extreme reactions that this hideous car gets.

I recently finished watching season 1 of Common Side Effects, and it is absolutely stellar. I haven't seen such profoundness, ambition, and poignancy in an animated series since BoJack Horseman. The first episode is available for free on YouTube, so there is no excuse to not check it out.

I would unironically buy this in a heartbeat, and that's no cap. #AprilFools

Having smart/connected/IoT features on appliances is great, as long as it's optional and you're not required to use those features to access core functions. There should be parity (within reason) between what functions you should be able to use locally and what is accessible remotely.

How do you kill that which has no life?

As much as I love Apple's products, preventing competing devices from having deep iOS integration is a troubling trend, especially when they try to justify it as necessary for "privacy" and "security." Android's openness allows for much greater interoperability and control for developers.

Even the AI has anxiety now.

I've been using Audiobookshelf to self-host my audiobooks for a while now and it is excellent.

AI coding assistant: "I cannot generate code for you."
