AI Overview: "Dental realism"refers to the philosophical debate about whether teeth exist independently of human perception, a concept rooted in metaphysical realism. While realism asserts an objective reality for teeth, idealist philosophies contend that teeth's existence is tied to our consciousness and perception. Philosophers use this idea, for example, to discuss the ethics of tooth extraction, examining whether a procedure impacts a real entity or merely a subjective experience.

Apple's support page says AirPods' new Live Translation won't be available to users in the EU and with an EU-region Apple Account, likely due to EU regulations By Tim Hardwick / MacRumors. View the full context on Techmeme.

But if I'm an American I CAN use the feature in Europe? Otherwise my dream of using this in Italy this spring just died and I guess I'll send my recently ordered AirPods back... www.techmeme.com/250911/p10#a...

The nerdiest but honest way to explain iPhone events in 2025:

This is how Apple plans to squeeze 1% to 2% incremental growth from a smartphone market that stopped growing years ago.

The company is a genius at making money from this kind of dull thinking.

There's something really funny about how Gen Z has realised that all you have to do is film yourself making shocked faces and mouthing WOOOOW to hit songs from the 70s and 80s and put it on YT and it's basically a free money transfer service from boomers

For US followers, the mighty Manchester United lost to a team called Grimsby Town. No shade on them. They deserved to win. And I hate ManU. So, GOOD ON them.

Came back from recording a pod to see the Man U news. Unbelievable. I watched some of the first half tho, so... believable?
