Been dealing with a terrible eye infection in the left eye, and let me tell you, it just doesn’t feel right.

Kinda wild to imagine that an Indian-American will soon be Apple’s COO. 🤯

The @1password.bsky.social Safari extension has gotten so slow and unreliable, that I can manually launch the app, go to the relevant Login, and manually copy the password before the extension can unlock or fail with an error.

What a terrible experience it has become.

Tell me one software feature that is more pointless and half-baked than profile on Apple TV.

Now on my primary phone

Google Workspace continues raising prices by shoving "AI" features into their apps. I'd have moved my business email off their platform if every new email app being announced didn't support Gmail only.

Been listening to Enigma songs since as long as I can remember and only just learnt what he looks like thanks to Apple Music

Why do Thunderbolt docks put the HOST port on the front? It's going to stay connected there 100% of the time, why not put it at the back? What kind of twisted logic is this?

Oh, there's also 0.email, but just like Notion Mail, it's not on iOS yet.

What will drop first, @notion.com/mail for iOS or Mimestream for iOS?

Or GTA VI? 😃

Great writeup. Do you have a guide on how to actually flash your custom firmware on the Waveshare ESP32 board?

Apparently, every camera lens released in the market today is GOD TIER according to Mark on YouTube, especially if it's a Viltrox.

The trusted verifiers system is nice, but they shouldn't be handing out blue tick badges. Instead, they should be able to verify their own employees or associated accounts with a badge that denotes so. May be add their own logo to profiles.

That said, showing blue badges in the feed is a bad idea.

I think Bluesky's approach to verification is wrong and is only going to overcomplicate things.

If their recommended method is to "self-verify" using your own domain, then why are they adding verified badges to accounts already using custom domains?

Not "Trusted" verifiers yet:
@wsj.com
@cnn.com
@theatlantic.com
@bloomberg.com
@nbcnews.com
@espn.com

Not verified yet:
@msnbc.com
@politico.com

So far I've only spotted @nytimes.com, @wired.com and @theathletic.bsky.social

Very surprised that @npr.org isn't one.

Booted up my PS4 after almost three years and it... still works.

The controller though, doesn't seem to be responding. I can see it's charging, but the PS button doesn't seem to be working so I can't do anything with it. :/

Hi!

The world really needs this show back on the air with a new season set post COVID.
