Apple marks first Apple TV 4K ‘vintage’ with new model imminent - 9to5Mac
The original Apple TV 4K from 2017 has just been added to Apple’s “vintage” products list. Here’s what that means.

Note to self: Don't use anyhow in your Rust library code. Yeah it makes it easy to prototype, but it makes it a bitch to go back and properly add error types.

Holy shit. Last I checked on the game, Ole Miss was like one score behind Florida. That final score is brutal.
The image is a sports scoreboard showing the final score of a game between Ole Miss and Florida. On the left, Ole Miss, ranked number 4, scored 28 points in grey text. In the center, the word Final is displayed in white. On the right, Florida, ranked number 21, won with 52 points shown in bold white text, alongside their alligator mascot logo.

Good night, sweet prince. 🫡
The image shows a terminal screen interface with a dark background displaying command-line output. The top status bar shows the fish shell version 4.9.3, with system metrics indicating CPU usage at 64.47 percent, memory usage at 20 out of 32 gigabytes, and execution time of 8 milliseconds. Below the status bar, the main content displays a Kubernetes command "kubectl delete namespace/muzakbot" in a teal and blue color scheme, followed by the success message "namespace muzakbot deleted" in white text.

Loudest pop I've heard in a long time. Been a long time since I've had lightning strike that close to where I live too.
This image shows a map interface displaying a yellow circular icon with a black lightning bolt marker indicating where lightning struck approximately 500 feet away at 1:12pm. The teal-colored map features various roads and buildings, with a blue location dot marking the user's current position on one of the structures in the upper left corner. Some areas of the map have been redacted with black boxes. Below the map is a dark panel showing a small preview thumbnail of street view imagery from Apple Maps along with a large yellow button labeled Share at the bottom of the screen.
