Cartoon Peter Lorre

I hope he labels his writing as fiction because this is factually untrue. Tim Cook and company never de-emphasized design. Also, the ID team has been hitting some home runs over the past 1-2 years that I don’t think the team under Jony would have hit. Reminder, you aren’t Gurman’s audience. Instead, he caters to those who have an axe to grind - most times former Apple employees who have recently left. This has included some (former) designers. Recall how Gurman hilariously got played by Alan Dye. It’s all noise. Just ignore. I keep saying it with the hope that Apple rumor blogs will wake up and finally label his stuff as fiction.

@Mylovanov Leave the Kerch. Destroy all others means of exit. Watch mile upon mile of Russians trudging back to Russia over the Kerch. That would be a sight for the ages.

Hodges: The Kerch Bridge is a high-payoff target, not just logistically but psychologically. Destroying Putin's bridge would demolish morale and erode the false narrative of inevitable Russian victory The Ukrainians will pick the right time. It will require a lot of explosive 1/

@Mr_Blacksmith_A @bayraktar_1love Ukraine should leave that bridge intact, but remove all other means of exit from Crimea. Please give us the spectacle of the Russian occupation leaving ON FOOT across that bridge (because there’s no fuel for vehicles left).

@bayraktar_1love This means the bridge will soon be finished

BREAKING: The SBU says two Pantsir air-defense systems deployed directly on the Crimean Bridge were among the targets hit during the latest strikes on Russian military infrastructure in occupied Crimea.

@app_settings You are complaining about a rev 1.0 DEVELOPER BETA. Hopefully you provided your feedback to Apple.

fun fact: the new Siri on iOS 27 will literally lock you out of the conversation if you ask it something it REALLY doesn’t like lol

@neilcybart I remember when the original Siri was launched. Even Apple-hating friends were excited about it - “Ask it where’s the best place to bury a body in New Jersey!” they implored me, already laughing.

One thing that becomes very clear after using Siri AI: We are going to see a Siri craze on social media when Siri AI goes public in September. Lots of screenshots and clips of people testing out Siri AI with their own context and identity networks. Brings back memories of the first weeks and months with Siri on the iPhone 4s. I still remember demoing Siri to friends on the iPhone 4s. I think we are going to get a version of that in September.

@SaveStandard @SenTomCotton I do believe this is one of the very few times I’ve agreed with something Cotton said

“Permanent Daylight Saving Time would make the sun not rise until 8:30 or 9am. It would especially harm schoolchildren, construction workers, and farmers. Unless we’re willing to adopt permanent Standard Time, there’s not much to be done.” @SenTomCotton October 2025 👏 Thank you!

@abhijitwt First Apple was “behind” on AI, now AI is “Apple’s fault”. Humans are stupid, we deserve our future AI overlords.

Apple killed 1000s of startups not just CalAI

@Mrwhosetheboss I’ve recently been restoring hundreds of old Kodachrome slides, so my photography senses are currently honed to a fine edge. The Samsung images are over saturated, skins tones overexposed, and have weird out of focus effects. Horrible.

iPhone 17 Pro Camera finally tested against the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Who wins?

The ⁦@verge⁩ could only muster one manufactured “bad” for new AirPods Pro but still couldn’t justify a 10 score. 😂 just make the scale 1-9 if a 10 is impossible ⁦@reckless⁩. Maybe if the AirPods Pro were free they’d get a 9.5?

@DavidJDPhotos Nice shot! Dirty though (I’ve been scanning a lot of old family Kodachromes and 35mm TRI-X so I pick up on that stuff quick).

For the past month, I’ve been working on a project to map out and document the work of one of the most prolific storefront sign painters in the US - this is Detroit’s Ron Signs

@Landedbump @SpaceBasedFox Looks faked

@SpaceBasedFox Here’s a high res version I found online a few weeks back can’t remember who posted it sorry

Yeah, this was incredible, someone snuck in a picture of a screen showing the internal cams DURING RE-ENTRY You can even see the spots where the flaps are attached :O

Meta banned my Above Avalon account on Threads. Second time in as many months. They clearly are upset about something.

@pipp100 @volcaholic1 Not until it’s dinner time but there’s nothing to eat. Then humans will start listening.

@volcaholic1 Is anyone out there listening #ClimateEmergencyNow

New Zealand: While responding to a medical emergency on Friday, the GCH Aviation Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter crew captured dramatic footage of the severe flooding impacting the Nelson and Marlborough regions.

@PcPhilanthropy Two minutes of charging gives 9 hours of continuous use. 120 seconds. ONE HUNDRED TWENTY SECONDS. What have we humans become that we can’t wait two goddamn minutes for our tools to charge? (two hours = full charge that gives weeks of use, ya impatient dinks)

A trillion dollar company thought this was a good idea

Amped-up Anthropomorphism!! Inanimate objects won’t sit still… they’re Hyped, Zazzed, Shaken! And clearly Not Well! #art #comics #glennhead

@volcaholic1 Looks like a well-fed black rat snake. The coloration around the head is appropriate. Water snakes have very rough scales, although I’m not familiar with the beach-going variety!

Massive nope rope!!! Ocean City Beach In Ocean County , New Jersey 😱🐍🐍🐍☀️🌊

I hope they add a feature to Google Earth that allows me to track the route of the suicide drone that kills me for criticizing DOGE.
