I'm relatively unbothered by whether Mac app icons are forced to be squircles as long as they are designed nicely but my very-likely-with-OCD brain does feel that freeform app icon shapes have this "am I clicking on an app icon or just some nice-looking graphic" quality to them.

P.S. I told him one of the big things in Montreal is the Gay Village. The uncle also went "lol wtf". I said LGBT people live under prejudice, and they formed a village as we do with Chinatown. And just like that, he understood the context and no longer felt weirded out by gay people.

Getting a sense of local book trends at PBAKL. It's a young market and religious/romance reads still dominate the shelves but there's also a growing hunger for knowledge.

Ernest is: on transit! 🚌🚇🚅 @ernestonpt.bsky.social · 23/05/2025

This morning, Apple Map's Transit layer has dropped in Malaysia Transit on Apple Maps has always been highly praised for its design & detail wherever its released, and here are some of my favourite parts for the Malaysian release, and what could be improved in a hyperfocus look:

Apple Maps screenshot showing a broader transit map of the Klang Valley area in Malaysia. The map includes various rail lines with colored routes such as the LRT, MRT, KTM Komuter, and monorail. Notable stations shown include KL Sentral, Sentul, Gombak, Ampang, and Bandar Tasik Selatan. The International Islamic University Malaysia and surrounding residential areas are also visible.

Apple Maps screenshot showing the Bukit Bintang area of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The map highlights multiple transit icons including MRT (green line) and bus services (blue and purple icons), with key landmarks such as McDonald's, MiX Flagship Store, H&M, and FamilyMart. Exit labels (A to F) for the MRT station are visible, along with nearby eateries like Halab Gate Shawarma & Kebab, and Kedai Makan Upin & Ipin.

Unlike English, Malay has no grammatical gender. In Malay, the word "dia" serves as a universal pronoun, referring to both men and women, but has different pronouns when referring to the third person for different classes: "beliau" refers to VIP and "baginda" to royalty. Absolute classist.

I wonder if bsky is familiar with Malaysian fish head noodles. The broth is made by frying fish bones to a crisp and aggressively boiling it to create a milky white broth from emulsifying the proteins and oils. Typically served with rice vermicelli and fried fish, like this red snapper head.
