@jonasdowney Congrats!

Tonight’s movie was Tron: Ares. Can’t really understand all the hate (yeah, I know, Leto is not the most liked person around, story arc was changed, Sam&Quorra were left out, blah blah). Is it a direct sequel to Legacy? No. So what? Still a solid 8 🤷🏼‍♂️☺️

The only negative is that with the box office performance, I have a feeling we’ll have to wait a loooong time for a fourth Tron, if it’ll ever be made.

The 'Stranger Things' finale made a killing in movie theaters. Which is hardly surprising since they should have been leveraging such distribution for *years*. And now Netflix presumably will be with all sorts of content going forward... https://spyglass.org/stranger-things-box-office-netflix/

@marioguzman June is great, city will be alive by then!

7 chapters. 3 months of research.

A (controversial?) deep dive into Liquid Glass. A whole new iPadOS.

My iOS and iPadOS 26 review is here.

Enjoy ☕️

No. I don’t ever want to jump on a call. Ever. In my experience, Extroverts (usually unintentionally) take advantage of Introverts on the phone. I find the playing field to be level when everyone has to type.

The more time I spend with Liquid Glass, the more I don't understand Alan Dye's and the design team's obsession with minimizing UI chrome and "prioritizing content" instead.

With collapsed tab bars in iOS 26, it now takes me two taps to switch between Library and Music.

Is that…better? The animations are gorgeous, sure. But does it actually *work* better? 🤔
