E.J. Kalafarski @ejk.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I'm always tempted to rant about the billionaire scion of an unrelated industry just buying his way into running Hollywood until I remember that the Paramount logo said "A Gulf+Western Company" under it for my entire childhood. 000

E.J. Kalafarski @ejk.bsky.social · 04/10/2026This is actually very traditional spin. The Trump administration breaks a lot of laws and norms, but they’re going to be brought down by a very traditional thing: high prices and bad polls. 000
E.J. Kalafarski @ejk.bsky.social · 02/10/2026This is key to me. I don’t want AI pretending it has a personality. I want a no-frills cut-to-the-chase answer, like the computer on the Enterprise. 9to5mac.com/2026/10/02/i...9to5mac.comiOS 27’s Siri gets one thing very right that other AI assistants get wrong - 9to5MacSiri AI is now available in iOS 27 as a major upgrade to Apple’s assistant, and it differs greatly from other AI assistants in one key area. 000
