Turns out Preview really doesn’t like opening 1GB TIFF files. I got beachballs at points, I guess now I know why.

Inspired by a post yesterday from @SwiftOnSecurity, I decided to see what Apple Photos thought of The Dress.

Searching for both “blue dress“ and ”gold dress“ worked. Other colors, such as red or purple, did not return the picture.

Attached: 1 image Apple Photos identifies objects and scenes in photos and videos with natural language and OCRs text for searching. You can search for "white dress" "silver building" or "orange dog" or things like missile. It's honestly not discoverable at all. You can also select text to copy.

As Twitter is melting down, Bluesky is suffering, Reddit is collapsing, and so many other big things are going on in the world I’d like to remind everyone we almost got a realistic Sonic The Hedgehog.

@CARROT Too bad your pilot never got picked up.
Having watched #Simpsons S34E1 (I’m almost caught up!) I need them to make a chibi Simpsons episode. The little avatars were fantastic.
