Tweet from a tech bro reading: “Absurd that any podcast episodes I record aren't automatically transcribed, show-noted, chaptered, given custom episode art, chopped into shorts, and posted everywhere.”

Apple Tech Bloggers: “I can’t believe company X doesn’t have a native app for Vision Pro at launch?!?!”

“Well those weak ass electric vehicles are never going to be able to pull a cattle trailer loaded up out of the yard.”
