I've noticed a number of people saying the iPhone Duo doesn't have a left handed mode. Wouldn't you just turn it upside down? My assumption would be that when the curved corners are on the left, the controls stay on that side. And Apple kept talking about it supporting all orientations.

Somewhat interesting, less of a weight difference when going from the iPhone 17 Pro Max to the iPhone Duo (231→254g) vs the 17 Pro to Pro Max (204→231g). So a 23g difference vs a 27g difference.

So glad to see this improved. Indigo is a fantastic app and they have now fixed probably my one major annoyance with it, making it easier to make sure you created the right pairing for cross-network mentions. Thank you @anilineapps.bsky.social!

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Just in case you still use any Basecamp products, DHH is crashing out about his AI product gently pointing out that it’s bad for him to have extermination fantasies about the Roma people.

DHH tweet saying “This is why we need competition and open weights in Al. Imagine a world where only Anthropic sat as the moral arbiter of acceptable speech. Fucking ridiculous. (Grok of course did it no problem, same too with Kimi K).” when presented with his blog post using a slur about the Roma people.

So, what will it take to actually communicate a needed cultural change that if you use the products of hateful supremacists, you are directly funding their ability to be hateful supremacists? Because this doesn’t seem to be understood by the world at large.

Anyone have a favorite rounded sans-serif that has a bit of quirk to it? I like Kit Rounded quite a bit (in the screenshot) but it's licensing is not great for me. Preferably variable, with a chunky/bubbly bold/black weight, and a simpler licensing model for web and app use. Not too cartoonish.

Sample text of the Kit Rounded sans-serif typeface showing a thick weight with a quirky character to it added by tapered, sharpish curves on the insets.

They finally updated the Apple Pay UI, so you don't click the wrong button to change cards every, single, time! Not sure why they made the button look disabled; hopefully they fix that. You can also swipe between them.

The headline makes it sound like the bike or scooter just blew up on its own--when Block Club deigns to mention it was a driver in a Jeep who struck her, they say the Jeep "[was] being driven." Truly pathetic to tacitly blame a teen for her own death vis-a-vis the passive voice.
