Apple re-enabling Apple Intelligence with each iOS update is a bug that needs to be fixed ASAP if they want the trust of their users who are already very skeptical of anything AI.
I asked this in a Discord I’m in, but just confirming that I didn’t misunderstand or miss something: at no point was “taking over Canada” part of Trump’s voting platform or reason why someone in the US would’ve voted for him, correct?
As far as I can tell, it basically came out of nowhere?
Woke up to the vacuum not working, the dog being off (seems fine now), and fresh snow on top of all the ice from the melt we’ve been having. Feels like a very Monday Monday.
Normally I think it’s silly to sing a national anthem before a sporting event that isn’t an international kind of thing like the Olympics.
But given all the things, I got chills hearing the 5,5,00 people singing along to “Oh Canada” at the hockey game tonight.
Finally getting around to checking out Star Wars: Skeleton Crew. The first episode was a lot of fun. If the rest of the series is like this, I can understand why so many folks have been raving about it. Even got a “It’s ok” from my moody pre-teen. 😆

The keyboard change is typical of Apple’s meticulous attention to detail, even if it took more than a quarter-century to implement.
I’m sorry what? 😆 Apple can’t have attention to detail on something that took them 25 years to fix?
Noah Kahan dropping a new song on Sesame Street (TikTok link) is the perfect antidote to all the things.
Being able to right click on a layer and click “remove background” and it just works™ right away is still a thing that breaks my brain a little even though kids today think it’s just absolutely normal to do that in a second on any image anywhere.
I agree with Colbert - Americans can’t take Trump seriously but not literally like they did in Trump 1.0. You need to take him seriously and literally. He’s figured out how to actually do the crazy, messed up shit he wanted to do the first time but wasn’t set up then to make it all happen.
I thought you used to be able to confirm Apple Pay on a Mac with your iPhone? Why can I confirm a purchase on $200 Apple TV hardware, but I can’t do the same on my $3,000 Apple Mac Studio unless I buy a $179 Magic Keyboard with Touch ID?
New blog post: We are Canadian.
Being someone who can often catastrophize about things, it was super helpful to get to edit a podcast with a host + guest who also catastrophize. Hearing how they’ve been able to manage and work through getting to the other side of those thoughts is super helpful.
JD Vance is the kind of driver who gets mad if people don’t wave thanks to him when he slows down to let them cross the street in front of his car.
