@lanestudios @terryleewhite @Apple Is it just possible that tens of millions of people, rather than being gullible fools, prefer the better product?
I mean is that possible? IS IT?!??!1!o1!
English
@terryleewhite @Apple It's just an annual fleecing of the "I oWn EVerYtHiNg (Cr)ApPlE mAkES" crowd. #sad

@terryleewhite @jasonmperry @Apple And then what, am I gonna stoop over there and use that screen to check the weather? I have an iPad on the table here or my phone or I can ask Siri or look out of the window.
(Also Lucy just said “is that my house on the internet?”)
English
@terryleewhite @jasonmperry @Apple Here’s my kitchen. See the HomePod? That’s right, you almost don’t. Imagine it if had a monstrous screen. ☹️
It’s good that there’s competition. Get that thing from Amazon, I’m sure it sounds terrific and is reliable.

@johnnydecimal @jasonmperry @Apple Home app, doorbell and other cameras, photos, Siri responses. Weather forecast, news.

LOL. They even fucked up their own advert. Click through and it's AU$135/year.
What a shitshow.
@gruber and @benthompson just for fun.

Twitter Blue 'limited time' offer of ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS PER MONTH?
Limited because you know I'm drunk now and when I sober up I'll realise you're out of your goddamned mind?
@elonmusk might wanna sort this out.

@SerbanG6 We’re happy to help. Please send us a DM and let us know more about the issue you’re having with Siri so that we can look into this further for you: twitter.com/messages/compo…

The next generation of HomePod delivers rich, deep bass, natural mid-range, and clear, detailed highs — all while using Siri to help with everyday tasks. Music lovers — this one is for you. 🎶 apple.com/newsroom/2023/…

@blessanm86 @simonswiss Yeah. Though you’re unlucky if you have a family hatch this close to the house.
We have a Huntsman mama guarding her sac out in the veggie patch. I live 300m from the centre of the capital, Canberra.

There are PLENTY of reasons why you should NEVER move to Australia...
...but *this* shit from this morning is likely the #1 reason 🙀
In the BEDROOM !!! 😳

@terryleewhite @jasonmperry @Apple What do you want to put on the display?!
I adore my 1st gen stereo pair. I’m overjoyed that this product is back.
English
@jasonmperry @Apple A display. Especially considering the price.
English
@apollozac Such a great product. You have to live with one to realise how great they are.
My kitchen has a stereo pair and I’d be lost without them. 98% for playing music, 2.5% for controlling the light, and -0.5% for non-music-Siri requests. Ha ha joke funny get it?
I’ll stop now.
English
@cal_stoneman @dwoodbridge I’m so happy to see the 2nd gen because I love my stereo pair 1st gen.
It’s the sheer convenience of two devices that only need a power cable. They’re at opposite sides of my kitchen, one on top of a cabinet. And yeah, they sound fantastic.
But Siri, oof, rough.
English
So new HomePod 2nd edition. Again, over priced, no mention of Bluetooth, would have been nice for running on batteries, and what about a screen? Another Apple product I won’t be buying, holding on to my 3 HomePods 1st gen.
English
Me too and me too! Helps that @berkeleygfx has a really sensible pricing and licensing model. Makes it actually realistic for someone like me to buy and use a custom typeface.
It’s coming on the website redesign which I’m getting up at 6am to work on every day! :-)
Daryl@thezolbatar
My favourite monospaced font and yes I really did pay for a font! It’s beautiful and has a strong retro vibe.

.@MindNode. Spectacularly good mind mapping software that just keeps getting better. A Mac-assed Mac app. I love it.
I think a subscription is ~$50/year? Worth every cent.
April King 🌀@CubicleApril
I've probably missed a few, but here's some macOS software I've found well worth paying for: 1Password $30-60/yr Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher: $100 Alfred: $80(ish) Bartender: $16 HomeControl: $13 Lunar: $23 Path Finder: $20/yr SoundSource: $39 Things 3: $50 What's yours?
English
@kevdog @mindnode I used to but I've made my peace with it.
From the developer's point of view I get it. You need to know that you can keep the lights on, especially if you're anything larger than a single person.
Software used to cost $600. Now it costs $60/year. It's the same money. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Shameful indeed that an organisation might work for the people.
Elon Musk@elonmusk
Kudos to the BBC for self-labelling its state affiliation
English
@berkeleygfx @awesomekling @corecursive I heard this once that if you tell people about your idea, they’re gonna go “cool idea!”, and now it’s like you’ve taken the dopamine hit for doing the thing without actually having to do the thing.
So you’ll never do the thing, because now why bother?
English
"I am of the belief that if you have an idea, the best thing to do is to not tell anyone. Because, it really takes the air out of it. So, better to go prototype the idea and something comes out of it, you can show it to people."
