After a stint with an #iPhone 14 Plus (big mistake) I’ve gone back to my 12 Mini. Even with its reduced capacity battery I get at least a full day, mostly because I’m not glued to it and turn off everything unnecessary. The same should be the case for a 17 Air. #Apple 9to5mac.com/2025/05/0…

Ok. I didn’t expect this… Some context: I have a group of friends I chat with on #Matrix and I’d shared that I was wanting to replace my #AppleWatch with a #RePebble Core 2 Duo, so one of my pals had #AI generate this song for me. #music #shenanigans #funny suno.com/s/mcvmVRW…

I’m honestly confused by some of the takes from this reviewer of Macs of “15 years” on what a move from #Windows to #macOS would entail, especially the idea that the Dock can’t show all running apps? WTF??!! #Apple #DitchMicrosoft #tech www.engadget.com/computing…

I submit the thesis that everything is effectively pirated. Exhibit A is the “You Wouldn’t Steal a Car” anti-piracy campaign from the naughty aughts. #piracy #internet #tech #capitalism #LOLZ boingboing.net/2025/04/2…

OMFG, are these people serious?! With every new story about #capitalism’s ever-expanding braindead imbecility, I am losing hope that we can claw our way out of this morass of stupid. #AI #journalism #tech #news #idiocracy slashdot.org/story/25/…

I contend that #Apple made a mistake killing the #iPhoneSE and replacing it with the significantly more expensive #iPhone16e. They should have brought back the Mini and made a “Light” version of it for the SE line to have two small phones. #tech #smartphones #DumbTechTricks www.macworld.com/article/2…

Um… a 17 Mini, a perfect #smartphone that #Apple mistakenly cancelled after the 12 MIni and 13 Mini apparently “didn’t sell well enough”. Piffle. I’m still using my 12 Mini. It is the perfect mobile phone for peeps who don’t need a pro camera or a giant slab in their pocket. #tech #opinion

A pal ‘o mine apparently tossed my logo into an #AI machine and it spat this retro classic out. Of note, we have no idea where the brain robot got the “HUSSAN” at the bottom, so that’s hilarious! Also, that’s not really me, but it’s fun. #NotQuiteArt #AritificialHallucination

So, this #techbro wannabe was so far up his own ass that he overpromised and had to fake it. Don’t believe these idiots and their claims over #AI. This is as legit as companies worth billions that don’t make any revenue. #tech #scams #fraud #FAFO #capitalism yro.slashdot.org/story/25/…
