Started in #radio nearly 30 years ago, which transitioned to #podcast nearly 20 years ago. “Mac OS Ken” focuses on Apple news. “The Checklist by #SecureMac” focuses on security. Used to do a show about #StarTrek. These days, all I REALLY want to talk about are #bookbinding, #fountainpens, #postcards, and #stationery. Well… and #VR. And #AR. And #Apple and #podcasting and radio.

The image at the top is a collection of fountain pens on display. The icon is an electronics diagram of a resistor.

Say it was about economics if you want. Say it was about borders and law and order and whatever you want to say it WAS about. You see what it is now. And if you don’t speak against it, it doesn’t matter what you say it was about. It’s racism and authoritarianism on display. It’s a 79 year old baby smearing his excrement on everything. I lose hope.

I know that Stephen Miller gets a lot of hate on here, but hear me out.

I think we could hate him more. We have the capacity, we all just need to put in a little more effort.

Rising utility bills are a scam on the public.

1. The AI companies who suck the grid dry should pay the freight. What the hell else are meters for?

2. Sure, there are increased infrastructure costs. Those that burden the system should pay the freight to expand it.

I’d change one word to “bathroom” and another to “backside.” Otherwise, yeah. https://www.threads.com/@aaron.rupar/post/DNqfFjYNwZ9

Donald Trump had classified docs in the shitter at his private club and his paying customers may have been using them to wipe their asses, so no, his administration does not have a good faith interest in the sanctity of sensitive government secrets

I always knew I was paying a premium as an #Apple user. Generally speaking though, I didn’t feel like Apple was screwing me. Sad to say, it feels like that's changing. The price hikes... the stands it's not taking... the Mac is still the best (for me) and I'll likely not switch from iPhone, but I'm starting to feel more consistently hosed.
Me upon reading some headlines about the AI bubble bursting.

#PSA: You are more interesting than your job.

#Tip: When someone asks "what do you do?", tell them about your weird bug collection, or your last hike, or that cool series you pirated recently.

Good morning!
Have a nice Saturday!

Trump: "Vladimir Putin said something -- one of the most interesting things. He said 'your election was rigged because you have mail in voting.' He said, 'mail in voting, every election -- no country has mail in voting. It's impossible to have mail in voting and have honest elections.' And he said that to me because we talked about 2020. He said, 'you won that election by so much.'"

It must be crappy for the president when he realizes that foreign leaders won't simply roll over for him the way the Supreme Court, the GOP, tech billionaires, and the American media have.
