Ok, menu bar, new multi-windows and a better pointer on iPadOS is truly something that made me want to install a new beta

One downside to having fawns (baby deer) on the property is that sometimes I find baby deer carcasses as well. Oh well, nature is metal and let nature take its course, but still a bit sad. I won't be posting any pictures but my main suspects are the foxes.

A lot of people say generative AI shouldn't infringe on copyright. These researchers actually tried to do it. The result: an 8 terabyte dataset of text that's openly licensed or in the public domain & 7 B parameter model that performs as well as Meta's Llama 7B www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Wait what now? A drug user and an illegal alien that had access to all possible data in the US government? How could that happen? And more importantly who let this happen?

Wait I thought last March Tesla's EVs were "beautiful" and "cool", when the dynamic duo was doing Tesla promo at the White House, and Trump even bought one!

Trump: "We discussed the attack on Russia's docked airplanes, by Ukraine." Oh no, Ukraine attacked peacefully docked military airplanes that bomb Ukraine every day, and it immediately deserves a discussion between Trump and putin.

i don't think there's a more self defeating anti-piracy system than streaming sites that don't let you take screenshots. i am trying to talk about your product on social media! for free! and you're making that logistically difficult just in case i'm dedicated enough to do it 30 times a second!

It's such a shame Americans stopped loving station wagons. I have one of the last 2019 BMW 3-Series #sportswagon sold in the US, and despite it being in a boring beige color (technically "platinum silver"), I find it a very pretty car. #bmwwagon #wagonation #longroof

Your key takeaway from the brilliant Ukraine attack with small drones into Russia shouldn’t be “wow, small drones make it so easy to score huge hits,” it should be “wow, Ukrainians are insanely good at covertly planning and executing extraordinarily difficult missions of which drones are one part”.

Годы как версии iOS/macOS По слухам, Apple решила обозначать свои операционные системы по годам (например, macOS 2026), и мне даже трудно передать, насколько эта новость меня порадовала. Вспоминать, где там была Sonoma, Sequoia или Monterey, уже практически невозможно, а тем более — какие у них…
