The Power Mac G3 was a thing of beauty. It was a fashionable and ground breaking design while being unapologetically a computer. It went so far beyond the aesthetics of PC cases of the time to address the functional requirement to be able to open it up and add things to it. This aspect was shared with earlier Power Mac towers but never so beautifully realized as in the Power Mac G3. A truly innovative design and product and a self assured early first step on Apple’s decades long run.

If—and right now it’s a big if—things do eventually work out, watch how quickly people forget how close we got to complete democratic collapse. They’ll say we overreacted. They’ll forget those who suffered and died. They’ll move on. But the victory will be worth it anyway. Keep fighting.

When the birthright citizenship decision comes out, people will say it could never have gone any other way, that the law was obvious. But the mere fact that the Supreme Court took on the case is evidence enough that we are living in a time of democratic precarity.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ The mere act of existing and being visible shouldn’t be as fraught as it is today. Let’s keep fighting to set things right.

ICE apparently staged out of the parking lot of the Star market on Beacon this morning. Word is that they headed into Cambridge. If you see them, call LUCE: 617-370-5023

The most brilliant move in corporate history?

In a bold departure from its Big Tech peers, Apple sidestepped the $650 billion AI infrastructure spending frenzy, a move likened to opting out of purchasing the US Navy annually. While Amazon, Goo…

Thoughts and Observations on the MacBook Neo

The MacBook Neo is the first major new Mac aimed at the consumer market in the Apple Silicon era. It’s meant to make a dent — perhaps a minuscule dent in the universe, but a big dent in the Mac’s share of the overall PC market.

And so-called western left will figure out how to frame it as a "western imperialism" issue and gaslight victims who don't align with that perspective, or pretend it isn't happening, like Sudan.

In the last one they were allied through hate of Tigrayans, jointly committing #TigrayGenocide. Now they're going at each other. Inconceivable after just having gone through deadliest war of the 21st century thus far.

My brain can't process that this is happening.

And so-called "international community" will only step in to stop victims from fleeing or to pillage the resources, continuing the cycle.
