To be blunt, a lot of those voters are not paying attention to the news or they are in the MAGA disinformation bubble. If the latter group hears about this story at all, they’re going to be fed lies and they’re going to feel fine about this.

I’m assuming the Trump administration will it blame these wildfires on DEI because these states have a lot of republicans in them.

But the iPod also isn’t around anymore.

That wasn’t really the thesis statement of the piece.

The piece primarily talked about out the listening experience. It’s a focused experience without notifications, listening is more intentional and curated (not controlled by algos), it’s nostalgic, and modding iPods it pretty fun.

Yeah, the recipient mentioned this was for a review video. Now he’s getting a review video + this.

That’s tech blogger was probably thinking “what the fuck, I need to return this piece of shit… wait. This would be a great video.”

The US is so fucked. People are not going to give the bully their lunch money. They’re going to team up against the bully.

I’ll go to whatever is the better experience for healthy online communities. Lemmy scratches an itch now, but there is definitely room for improvement.

It’s still hard for small niche community to gain traction here, the mod tools don’t scale for beans, and onboarding into an instance is still a big barrier for too many people.

This article is click bate written to hook on to the buzz / drama around Apple intelligence.

This feature is almost 20 years old. Visual Voicemail was one of the early “holy shit” features that the first iPhone launched with.

I’m sure the model has changed a lot in 2 decades, but weird voicemail transcriptions are not new. We’ve all experienced these for decades.

Where we’re really going is, a year, year and a half from now, is when you come to Digg, it’s going to be very much more like the leap that happened to Figma, where it’s free form, it’s dynamic, it’s an interface that is unlike any other that you’ve seen,” says Rose. “It’s not your old-school forums

Umm. Figma’s UI is exactly something people saw before. It’s aggressively based on Sketch’s UI.

Figma blew up because it was free for non-enterprise use, had Invision-style prototyping built-in, it was a more performant than Sketch, and they were adding features faster than Sketch could.

And FigJam is just a Miro / Mural clone. But that is also very performant, and they had some silly features / plugins that made work fun.

The flooding is going to come anyway. JC should just play video games and let humans continue melting the ice caps.

That pee tape must be fucking bonkers.

Up next in Utah, higher dental insurance premiums, copays, and deductibles.

Insurance companies will still collect it since they need to pay out for a lot of this shit. We’ll also be able to quantify this impact by looking at dental premiums and copays. They’ll eventually go up in states without fluoridated water.

This author should’ve spent digging into the iPhone 12 / 13 mini, and how it was received in Apple communities a few years ago.

That experiment really showed that the small phone demographic is passionate and vocal, but small (no pun intended). Those phones sold well when the small-phone-fans ran out to buy them, but the sales numbers cooled off quick.

Given that Apple is working on a lightweight 17 “air” phone, my guess is that they learned screen size is too important for too many people, but they’re going to see if they can strike a middle ground with weight / pocket fit.

Former DHS security systems designers here.

If you want to complain about body scanners, complain about the security theater, lack of privacy, or back-scratching of security industry lobbyists.

Complaining about non-ionizing radiation is RFK-level conspiracy bullshit.

Also worth noting, a lot of public radio stations / NPR affiliates are doing their winter public pledge drives right now, and money will help them fund off defunding and legal attacks from the Trump administration.

If you like what little good journalism we have left in America. Donate.

He’s tried to fist fight the cops several times, so that’s a very real possibility.

The good news is that this guy is probably going to self-destruct. He’s constantly getting in trouble with the law.

Americans now
