Adverts in 2026: “The world can be a scary place. Things are difficult and sometimes you don’t know what’s ahead. Times like these we need to band together and show what we’re made off. That’s why you need to buy our mustard.”

If you too have an ancient AirPort Extreme Time Capsule hooked up to your network to stream your local media to your TV, you'll also need to use this to continue adding to it from macOS silly gate:

Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

The design apps I've been using for years are becoming less useful for designing. They used to be about direct and precise manipulation of their medium. The direct editing tools are now drowning in a sea of prompts, asking me to prompt a roll of the generative dice.

BitCam 2.1 is out! This is a fun one: you can now install a macOS system extension to use BitCam as a camera in Zoom, PhotoBooth, Google Meet, WebEx... any app that lets you pick a camera.

As revealed in recently unsealed court documents, Microsoft’s Director of Applied Science calls ChatGPT and Copilot’s harvesting of data the “largest theft of labor in human history” and says that Microsoft’s defense makes a “complete mockery of the idea of ‘fair use.’”

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing

Instagram post from the official Muppets account: Few humans have earned the title of honorary Muppet more than the legendary Tim Curry. As a performer he was unparalleled - witty, charming, unnerving, and deeply funny. We will always consider it one of our greatest treasures to have been part of Long John Silver’s crew. Thank you for everything, Tim.

A New Color (1/5🧵)

Page 1: A man is walking home, smoking a cigarette, being quietly trailed by a UFO above him. As he enters his apartment, two aliens watch from inside the ship. Alien 1, who has a large head, says, “that’s him. Let’s move.”

Page 2: The man walks upstairs as the aliens watch from the entrance of the building. The man enters his apartment and greets his little dog. Suddenly there is a knock at the door.

Page 3: he peers through his peephole, and sees the two aliens standing in the hallway. Alien 1 is holding a briefcase. From behind him, the voice of alien one: “don’t scream.”

Page 4: The aliens are seated across the room on the man’s couch. Sadie is in her bed next to them. Alien 1 says, “you’re not in any danger. Have a seat.” The man looks at his dog and thinks, “sadie is unusually calm.” Alien 1: don’t scream, or it’s a problem.

Emu night (1/2)

Comic page 1: a group of young emo people are hanging out in a venue with a banner that reads EMO NIGHT. Outside the venue, an emu is on the phone. He says, “yeah, could you pick me up? I think I misread the flyer.” Suddenly, behind the emu someone exclaims, “hey!”

What was that app that let you share music from either Apple Music or Spotify and generated a link to the other one? Worked with an iOS share sheet. If I dreamt it, I guess that's another one for the list!

Really appreciated Hart saying this when everyone on TV is fawning over the stars, describing shots that would usually be easily saved as 'unstoppable' and 'genius'. "The keeper couldn't get near it", when they actually got a big touch on it. Mbappé is brilliant but not every action is perfect

Small detail to appreciate: turning off 'Show engagement'. Hides the number of likes and reposts behind a few taps of friction, but still shows the buttons for those actions on the timeline. I'm liking more stuff I actually like, instead of considering what's already had enough or deserves more.
