I saw @LisaMarieBoothe on @Gutfeldfox last night... she is absolutely wonderful. I remember her from the TechTV days and she has finally found her way to Fox News. awesome!

Try Tesla FSD (self-driving)!

@RandalSchwartz That's awesome news!

My cardiac surgery Friday to fix my Atrial Flutter (via ablation) seems to have done well. My resting heart rate is back to the mid-50s without any medical push. I've had two decent nights of sleep, and drove today. Hooray for modern medicine!

@CSB Hope he gets well soon... and yes, very nice to get to know Mimi more, she is an amazing woman.

A health update on Dvorak from No Agenda 1849 — publishing it while the episode is still live so people won’t have to wait:

@mitchellh I thought AppleScript was deprecated... ???

Ghostty 1.3 is going to have a preview of AppleScript support. All windows, tabs, splits, terminals are exposed via AppleScript. For macOS users, this satisfies some of the most common requests: broadcast commands, automatic layouts, jump to working directory, etc. PR here: github.com/ghostty-org/gh… I also think this is an incredibly important feature to ship early/now so agentic tools like Claude and Codex can take advantage of a scriptable Ghostty on macOS. I still plan on a generic cross-platform scripting/plugin API (two separate things), but integrating with native features like AppleScript is entirely in scope of the Ghostty mission and like our Shortcuts integration it importantly lets you connect multiple sources since AppleScript can control multiple applications from one script. Note I normally don't ship features so down to the wire with a release, but this one is very isolated in its impact and I'm going to explicit document it in the release notes and website as a preview since I fully expect we're going to iterate a lot on the objects and commands exposed. From a security perspective, Apple already prompts for permission to control different applications so we're covered, but there is a master kill switch you can put in the config, too.

Wishing @THErealDVORAK a speedy recovery and remembering fondly the awesome keynote he gave at a @tmcnet event around 30 years ago in San Jose. For years, I was inspired by John's columns in @PCMag and I fell indebted to him for all he has done. He is a tech treasure - a legend and we hope is back in action soon.

Wow 🤯 All AI-generated.

Chinese engineers literally refactored @OpenClaw in Go for insane efficiency 🤯 It runs on a $10 @Raspberry_Pi instead of a $399 Mac mini. → Uses <10 MB of memory (99% smaller than OpenClaw) → 400× faster startup time → Boots in 1 second Free and open source, repo in 🧵↓

Transgenderism is a mental illness and you can’t change my mind.

@TomCottonAR @SenSusanCollins You've become a laughing stock... good grief. What happened to you.

Thrilled to see @SenSusanCollins is running for re-election. She's incredibly effective, hardworking, and trustworthy, and has an outstanding record of fighting & delivering for Maine families.

Why am I just now seeing this? 😂

He can stay 🤣

This is good, so damn good. 🤣

@tim_cook won't be watching... I'll be watching the All American show...

Can’t wait for the Super Bowl and the #AppleMusicHalftime Show!

Hey there @RandalSchwartz ... I enjoy listening to you on your guest visits back to Floss Weekly, and the Untitled Linux Show. What's up with Flutter development under Google's new AntiGravity IDE? I gave it a shot and had all sorts of problems requiring multiple versions of Java, Gradle errrors, etc. So, switched over to VS Codium, and everything just worked. Was very frustrating.

TSMC is great, but hey @JohnCDvorak, they better be keeping an eye on their rear view mirror. Intel is back into the game with their 18A (1.8nm) fab in Arizona... and Samsung has been continuously improving their process with their Exynos 2600 at 2nm.

Who is the smartest, USA or CHINA?

@Itsfoss Just For Fun by Linus Torvalds...

Suggest one book every Linux users should read at least once in their lifetime.

@SnazzyLabs @Riley_Gaines_ There he goes, back into the gutter... sad.

@Riley_Gaines_ She’s closer in age to her unborn baby than she is to her husband.

All while ~5 months pregnant, mind you. She's Superwoman.
