Laptop maker #Framework is announcing a new product on 2/25 at 10:30AM PST using some pictograms to suggest words. My translation: “Oh [hi]! We’ve been working on something [colorfully][flexible], something [powerful], and something worthy of [gamers]. #tech www.theverge.com/news/6103…
It seems that #Apple has completed its acquisition of #Pixelmator, the makers of Pixelmator Pro which competes with #Adobe’s #Photoshop and #Photomator Pro which competes with Adobe’s #Lightroom. #iPadOS, #iOS, and #macOS are getting updates now or soon. #tech 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…
A story from #9to5Mac reporting on a report from #Samsung confirms earlier rumors that #Apple likely won’t be shipping #OLED #MacBookPro machines this year, but in 2026. And the #MacBookAir might not see the upgrade until 2029. #tech #news #supplychain 9to5mac.com/2025/02/1…
I find this infuriating, and for one simple reason: #Microsoft won’t stop forcing #AI down the throats of its customers for any reason, much less some study they commissioned. #tech #CarnegieMellon #education #criticalthinking #capitalism #fascism gizmodo.com/microsoft…
Ok. This is officially my favorite new application of programming to solve a real problem. It’s called #WikiTok and it feeds users random #Wikipedia articles using the same user interface as #TikTok. All learning. No slop. Very nice! #socialmedia #addiction #mentalhealth arstechnica.com/gadgets/2…
Unfettered, uncontrolled, unregulated #Capitalism is essentially crime since they do what they want, say what they want, harm whomever they please, break any laws they choose, and are never held accountable. Those who help them are criminals, as well. #ai #piracy #books arstechnica.com/tech-poli…

A tweet on #Xitter from user Mario64 essentially confirms mouse mode for the #Nintendo #Switch2 as illustrated in patent filings from 2023. Another illustration indicates a dual-#Joycon mouse mode, as well. For details, we’ll have to wait until April 2nd 2025. #videogames kotaku.com/switch-2-…
Per usual, trying to ‘fix’ the symptom instead of working on the cause, isn’t working, not that peeps ever seem to learn that (or any other) lesson. We need fundamental change for social networking, not in-school phone bans. Better for all of us. #tech #mentalhealth mobile.slashdot.org/story/25/…
If you’ve been looking for a #cyberdeck, then you’ve got one more day to get in on the #Pilet #Kickstarter. They’ve already raised CA$1 million of their CA$20k goal… yeah. Popular is an understatement. #tech #raspberrypi #hardware www.kickstarter.com/projects/…
If you’re old like me, you might remember the transflective displays on old Palm and Blackberry devices. Perfectly viewable in well lit spaces. A Taiwanese company now offers a $900 24" 1080p 75Hz desktop monitor using the technology. #tech #hardware kotaku.com/indiana-j…
