@GriffinHilly Guy in whitefish will go to Calgary

LA's got five 70mm IMAX theaters and some dude in Whitefish has gotta make a literal odyssey to see this movie

@SFGiants Maybe he can write it on his pride hat, the jerk.

@heyjenbartel Here’s the code they are trying to get people to paste in. It ends up resolving to a download on some sketchy website, presumably malware or spyware. Sorry to hear the bad news.

@jsnell Looking into it now, thank you for letting me know!

@heyjenbartel It was the dot com and i just tried and it didn’t happen that time, but it absolutely did. Probably meant to be intermittent.

@jsnell Admittedly it’s been a long time since I updated my website but I just went there and didn’t have any issues…?

@heyjenbartel I got stopped by a false cloudflare notice that looked like the real thing except it was a phishing scam … you might want whomever built the site look at it for you

@ampilogov hey, I got the game working with the Logitech Muse, which is really cool! But there seems to be a bug where sometimes the paddle detaches from my hand/the Muse and just floats above the table. I assume you know but I wanted to mention it.

You can play #PingPongClub with your friends 🏓

Hi folks. A few more days are left to join us and become an up-front member for Designed in California, a podcast about Apple history. Lots of great member benefits and extras. Just go to designed dot fm or search on Kickstarter

Drop the most random Cal football player you can think of in the comments! Let’s see who actually remembers them. 👇 🏈 🐻 🚲

Lots of people enjoyed the Upgrade episode about the origins of Apple! So @imyke and I are going to try to do it as a regular podcast. It will be a lot of work, so we need your help. Kickstarter campaign launches June 1! designed.fm

Steve Jobs in Exile by @geoffrey_cain is out today. I talked to him about it this week in depth on Upgrade: relay.fm/upgrade/616

Today is launch day for Steve Jobs in Exile. I spent almost four years digging into Steve's stretch in the wilderness -- 1985 to 1997, after Apple pushed him out and before it brought him back. I expected the record to be complete. What more could there be on the most written-about entrepreneur alive? I was wrong. An archivist at Carnegie Mellon told me I was the first person in about fifteen years to open the NeXT archive. People had been holding letters, tapes, memos, recordings in their closets for decades, waiting to show someone. More than a hundred of them sat down with me. They didn't tell me about the genius-or-tyrant caricature. This was a younger Steve, mostly off-camera, nearly bankrupt, learning the hard way. Out now, order link below.

@Ourand_Puck I have always loved your stuff but suggesting that Jim Dolan will become liked "by making his partners and public market investors a lot of money" seems to entirely miss the point about why people hate Jim Dolan.

@JohnLamont Theory: they were extra motivated to extend because they know Apple is lurking

Dammit. I was hoping Apple would take a swing at this. Dam sight cheaper than Sky. @jsnell

@noiterations @SnazzyLabs Install crosspoint open source reader. Super easy to do (via chrome) and makes it much easier to use

@SnazzyLabs It’s the worst user experience to set it up. I have had mine for months, set up, still havent used it and keep going back to kindle. It also doesn’t stick to my phones built in magnet when other products do

“There’s no instance in which you’d ever use this to actually read a book.” Meanwhile, me, reading in short bursts on the ocean… 💁‍♂️

Last chance! Closing soon! If you're in Apple-related IT or know someone who is, my annual Apple in the Enterprise survey is still going on and I'd love more people to take it. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

@jsnell Hi Jason! Your “best of 2025”  playlist is great. Do you have a 2024 version that you could share as well? Your collections are always fantastic. Cheers.
