Here's hoping that Apple Intelligence completely failing to deliver on any of its promises will make people realize that they can survive just fine without having AI forced onto them in every device, tool and service.

Another failed Climate Summit. It’s a severe crime that our ‘leaders’ prioritise the fossil fuel industry over the future of our children 😢

F- Yeah, Rian!

Up close, the Pac Man nebula looks like a hole in the fabric of the universe with sunset light shining through. It has its own star-forming pillars along the frayed edges. #astrophotography

$40ish after tax for 6 of the most innovative|intuitive apps in the iOS music scene is wild I gladly paid full price for all but 1 of these and would again without hesitation Envious of anyone who’s being introduced to any of these for the first time. They’re top tier. #iosmusic #musicproduction

AI bros are getting more moronic by the day. Can’t this stupid AI bubble please burst already…

Not a lot of clear skies lately, but I managed to capture the California Nebula the other day. A distant cloud of gas and interstellar dust so enormous that it takes light 60 years to get from one end to the other. #astrophotography

It's that time of year again: Black Friday! I rarely do discounts, so this is your chance to complete the collection 🤩 Including some plugins I did together with @hainbach.bsky.social and @jakob-haq.bsky.social

The Triangulum Galaxy, the third-largest member of our so-called "Local Group". It is gravitationally bound to the Andromeda Galaxy and - like it - also drifting in our general direction. #astrophotography

me when the AI bubble bursts

Last night’s view of the Pleiades - the Seven Sisters. The blue glow is a huge interstellar dust cloud drifting through the open star cluster. #astrophotography

And now it's stuck in my head. What a banger. #IYKYK

The Eastern Veil nebula is an immense cloud of heated dust and gas left over after a star exploded in a supernova event. I want to redo my Western Veil image (the even more beautiful other side of this shockwave) because the sky wasn't perfectly clear when I took it. #astrophotography

XCode 26 is an absolute dog. It is quite literally impossible to use on my Intel Mac. Just permanent spinning beach balls. Not impressed.

Can't even build death star anymore, because of ewok

The Pelican Nebula in Cygnus. The “black cross” shape is actually a dark interstellar dust cloud obscuring the brighter nebula behind it. #astrophotography

Finally got an equatorial mount for my scope. Bye-bye field rotation, hello tight exposures 😃 First test on the Great Hercules Cluster; 100,000+ stars tightly packed together in a bright globe. #astrophotography

Travelling from Paris to Copenhagen by train is 21x more expensive than flying. This nonsense needs to change if we want to keep the world liveable.

The people dominating our political landscape, culture, and economy are just so stupid and full of shit it's almost impossible to describe

Improve your kick sounds with this one simple hack!! *goes on to describe an effect chain with 20+ different plugins*

It's finally dark enough for some star gazing again. Saw Andromeda for the first time (our next door neighbour galaxy) #astrophotography

2025 is the weirdest year in the history of the earth.

The Sears Tower is an Enderman confirmed. #minecraft

There's a ton of amazing stuff to unpack in this video, but @bennjordan.bsky.social actually managed to store a picture in a starling and made it reproduce the picture through sound and my mind has been thoroughly boggled 😵‍💫

If you're a zoomer and believe that people in their 40s and 50s are not in tune with today's tech; never forget we're fucking Gen.X and we essentially invented all the shit you're using today.

Sorry, your twin brother isn’t allowed on the elevator.

303, 106, 808, 909, 727, 2600, 950

when you open a service you've been using for a decade only to find it out it caught the virus

Everything Adobe touches withers and dies. So I’m quite stoked they’re now aggressively peddling genAI in all their applications.

Great article... more of this please!

The tragic obviousness of “we must have AI in our product but what’s the use case?”. All aboard the hype train of sadness.

Finally some good news about a tech billionaire.

If I had way too much time I'd get this and install Hypercard on it and pretend it was 1992 again. Because 1992 was the highlight of human civilisation and early (nano-sized) Macintosh computers are just cool.

Opening Bluesky to read about the latest loony nutball clownery. I have yet to be disappointed. #miasmatheory #lolscience

Grok, tell me if this is true.

I don't even know what they were going for here 🤣

The Cygnus Wall, reprocessed in the Hubble SHO palette. #astrophotography

The Bubble Nebula; a super hot giant star blowing a galactic bubble in a hydrogen cloud #astrophotography

Sam Altman's latest blog reveals the energy costs of running ChatGPT. Lately OpenAI was bragging about 1 billion queries daily, so summing it up: Running (not training) ChatGPT uses over 10 GWh monthly on average, plus nearly 10 million liters of water. Insane. blog.samaltman.com/the-gentle-s...

Disney is pretty much a law firm which also happens to employ a modest studio of creatives these days. So this lawsuit should be in good hands.

I know this is still beta stuff, but I can’t believe someone at Apple decided this was good enough to be shared with the outside world. Such a mess, I can’t get over it.

The soundtrack for (especially) the first game was so brilliant that - for me - it was a major part of the experience, and one of the key things that set it apart from other post-apocalyptic (zombie) games. Hats off to both Gustavo and Naughty Dog Studio.

A whole generation of UI/UX (sic) designers with just a Figma bootcamp as background will start pumping out turds like this now.

I really love Dublin, it’s one of my favourite cities to visit, but this “thing” is cursed. The comments make up for it though 🤣

I can’t wait for my midlife crisis to happen 😎
