I heard someone say that bologna is just hot dog pancakes and that’s been fucking with me all day

Who else remembers when Adobe Audition was still Cool Edit Pro? ✋

Don Jr. seeing the Epstein birthday letter

Who else was too poor for an iPod in 2004 and settled for a Creative Nomad Zen Xtra?

@stroughtonsmith Oh gosh I’m late! SocialFusion is a unified timeline app for Mastodon and Bluesky. My first app, open source and built with SwiftUI for a clean, modern experience. TestFlight is currently in alpha […] [Original post on ramblings.social]

It's really unfair that I can't CLEP my way into a Doctorate in Beatles Studies.

So sad what happened to popcorn heir “Big Balls.” It's like you can't even be a traitor without consequences anymore! 😠

Somewhere out there, there’s a version of “Heartbreaker” where Pat Benatar sings “Bootlicker,” and it feels right today.

“My farts are WAY LONGER and WAY LOUDER than loser Cryin’ Chuck Schumer!! Thank you for your attention to this matter!” https://ramblings.social/@frank/114961433935607818

One thing we are not doing enough is very publicly trolling POTUS and baiting him into saying bizarre things. Doesn’t take much, we saw that at the debate with Harris last year. Like if someone said “I bet you have tiny bowel movements” he wouldn’t be able to help himself, he would NEED to say […]

In 20+ years I've never put a sticker on any of my guitars but I'm starting to consider it. https://www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/Woody-Guthrie-This-Machine-Kills-Fascists-by-gennalyne/124419383.O9UDB

Will someone just do it already

salt is crazy because it comes in so many forms. himalayan. kosher. smoked. amphetamine. nicotine. table.

The more my Meta Ray Bans app says TURN ON LOCATION SERVICES the more I’m like WHY DO YOU NEED TO KNOW

This is exactly what the internet is for.

I really need to see Jeff Lynne’s ELO while I can. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQaJa1WH9ck&list=RDfQaJa1WH9ck&start_radio=1

Every day I think “today is the day my app will be ready for friends to start testing" and every day I find another reason it's not ready

hey kid, wanna buy some precedented times?

Good morning to everyone EXCEPT the birthday boy

Not me making a literal mixtape in 2025 with cassettes and vinyl. 👀

Half the fun of SwiftUI is the bizarre bugs.

What I really want is an OS-level AI agent that can perform complex non-deterministic actions involving multiple apps on my behalf.

20 years ago today, Steve Jobs gave his now-legendary Stanford commencement speech. Still hits like a friggin freight train. If you haven’t watched it in a while, today’s a good day to revisit it. If you’ve never watched it… what are you doing for the next 15 minutes? […]

Were you a rule follower, or did you risk it all in kindergarten by yelling “SO I’LL SHAKE MY BUTT” during the Chicken Dance?

This App Store reviews song is a total non-sequitur and feels like it was possibly tacked on late as some kind of attempt to look like they care about developers? #wwdc25

Completely agree. Tbh feels like a distraction from all the AI woes. #wwdc25 https://mastodon.social/@stroughtonsmith/114654803886363503

This window management / menu bar this should have been on the iPad in 2018 when they really committed to iPad Pro. It feels a little late. #wwdc25

Really leaning into enterprise use cases for Vision Pro, huh #wwdc25

The more I see these specular highlights, the more convinced I am that they're going to change #wwdc25

Visual Intelligence whiffs of a feature intended for AirPods with a camera. Not the phone. #wwdc25

LOVE the Parcel/Deliveries replacement they've added to Wallet. Here's hoping it actually works. #wwdc25

They didn't seriously make Leslie go out there and talk about Genmoji like it matters or anyone is using it. #wwdc25

I have to give Apple credit for still improving the phone call experience. Live Voicemail is arguably the best new iOS feature of the last several years. Call Screening and Hold Assist look like they're made in the same spirit. #wwdc25

There's something uncanny about Craig's narration. The lip sync is little off. Feels like they ran his audio through Enhance Speech by Adobe (or something similar). #wwdc25

Some of the reflections and highlights in this Liquid Glass are kind of distracting. Like media controls. I wouldn't be surprised if they scale some of it back during the beta period. #wwdc25

The way Craig just wallpapered over Siri being dumber than bricks was somehow more cringe than that F1 opening. #wwdc25

you don’t need to see his identification

Me learning SwiftUI by vibe coding an iOS app from scratch 🫣

Is vibe coding an iOS app from scratch a GOOD way to learn? I mean, no. But it's working for me! I’m 5 months into this experiment and learning a lot.

yeah but they're objectively wrong, so https://mastodon.social/@fistfulofdave/114597574911369211

What exactly did they expect people to be doing with these tapes??

That thing of when you get an especially good ChatGPT thread and you don't want to let it go 😂

“We paid $800 for a watch that says Rump” is how we all feel whether we bought the watch or not.
