#Apple’s new #LiquidGlass design in #iOS26, while visually striking, introduces #conceptualdissonance. The refractive #glassmetaphor, intended to unify design across touchscreens and headsets, #contradicts the #directmanipulation inherent to iPhone interaction. This raises questions about alignment with user expectations and the foundational principles of Apple’s #designphilosophy. https://hvpandya.com/liquid-glass?eicker.news #tech #media #news

Thoughts on the UI paradigm shift Apple just introduced with Liquid Glass.

I haven't heard much (that isn't gleeful finger pointing, anyway) from anyone about the newly-declassified-and-released #Jan6 #video #evidence.
The #Right is jumping up and down screaming, "WE TOLD YOU SO!" and the #Left is mysteriously and #suspiciously silent.
The version of events we were fed by the MSM and the Left doesn't seem to line up with the video evidence just released, and if that doesn't #scare you, you're not paying #attention .
I'm interested in others' #thoughts on this, and what the #ramifications of this newly-released information might be?
Did Biden get #elected based on #misinformation and the #withholding of evidence? If so, are we, as a #nation, OK with our government not being #completely #forthcoming with all of the #evidence when the fate of the nation is at stake?
I'm not OK with only being allowed to see the information the party in power (congress, mind you) wants us to see, especially when other evidence exists which #contradicts the #narrative.
