Interesting seat cushion choice…
On the way to Shibuya…

Last month, an article comparing the Apple M4 & M5 processors referenced an app called ‘Locally AI’. It enables users to “Run Llama, Gemma, Qwen, DeepSeek, and more locally on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Offline. Private. No login.”

It’s free, quite small, and collects no user information. It works pretty much like other AI apps. (1/3)

The sky seemed quite clear today in Tokyo at Shinjuku Gyoen near sundown.
Passed through #Yokohama Chinatown on the way home last week and thought this was pretty cool… 📷
Summer again!
Apple iOS & iPadOS Tip: If you long-press a date, a pop-up will appear showing the time at your location. Guess I won’t sign up for this!
I don’t post often, so I didn’t fully grasp what @MonaApp meant when they mentioned they added support for Apple Intelligence. But now I get it! When I’m editing a post and hit the AI symbol, it shows me all the usual controls.
@MonaApp I forgot the screenshot…
