HéliographeIf you put the Apple icons in reverse it looks like the portfolio of someone getting really really good at icon design

I have a 16” MacBook Pro as my main Mac and relied on an 11” iPad Pro w/keyboard to be my mobile / around the house computer. Some shenanigans to circumvent limitations but it was okay-ish. Always hopeful that it would get better.
Then Claude Code happened, and suddenly a sluggish 2017 12” MacBook is far more useful just because it has Terminal and a “real” browser.
Its a crossroad. Either free the iPad to realize its potential or just kill the iPad Pro line.
Reminds me of one of the main benefits of adopting native HTML 5 video instead of Flash: native, standardized UI provided by the OS. I was working on a video platform during the iPad launch and it was so good not to have to design every single aspect and state of a video player, and have something that performs super nicely, crafted by true experts.
@rafael os NAS hoje em dia sao meramente um mini PC com uma CPU de baixo consumo (tipo Intel N100). eu ja tentei isso com raspberry pi e ate comprei um Beelink ME Mini que vinha com 6 slots de SSD, mas depois de muito pular de distro em distro, desisti e peguei um Mac Mini usado e foi de longe a melhor escolha.

Joachim LykkeSo when Trump decides to go get Greenland he’s just going to fly in and kidnap our prime minister. Great. You have a unscrupulous and clinically insane idiot elected as your president and he wants to own the world. I have absolutely no trust in any of you Americans whether you are pronounced MAGA or if you “didn’t vote for the guy”: Your elected president is a megalomaniac dictator and it’s your fucking responsibility to stop him.

HeavenlyPossumDo you remember NFTs? I remember NFTs. They exploded onto the scene in 2020 and were *everywhere* in the public discourse. At their peak in 2021, there were something like $25 billion in NFT sales globally. There were NFT Super Bowl ads. Jimmy Fallon had Paris Hilton on his show to awkwardly shill for NFTs.
And then, by 2022, 2023 at the latest, the bubble had burst and NFT market had lost up to 99% of its value.
Blessedly, I never have to think about those fucking Bored Apes ever again.
I remember thinking, when NFTs first appeared, that they were so obviously a scam, but also a vague sense of surprise that such an obvious scam was proliferating while we were still living through the previous blockchain-related scam, cryptocurrency. And since the NFT bubble burst, we moved on absurdly quickly to the next tech scam-bubble, AI.

Dare ObasanjoThe most depressing lesson of the Trump era is that scandals don’t matter if the perpetrator and their supporters don’t feel shame.
Shamelessness is now a political superpower.
