Not going to lie: lately I’ve been wondering if any of my work—podcasting, books, tech writing—is really reaching people. But it’s all worth it on those days when some random listener sends an email out of the blue to tell me just how much I’ve affected them.

@jann ¯_(ツ)_/¯ You’re free to stop listening. Policing how people talk is rude.

Man, my Apple Watch battery fell off a cliff today. Anybody else seeing that on watchOS 10.5?

Congrats to my pal @lexfri who is releasing his Lex.Games app today! Play half a dozen word/logic games for free; paid subscribers unlock leaderboards and bonus games. I play most of these daily and they’re great, so you should absolutely go check them out. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lex-games/id6498941705

@matt In my head this is always said in the same tone as the song Brick House.

Absolutely delighted (should I say chuffed?) to be the first guest on the new @relay show, Paper Places, hosted by Kerry Provenzano. Kerry and I talk about writing, editing manuscriprs, the mystery of the first advance, and more! https://www.relay.fm/paperplaces/1

Last night I saw a Punisher flag decal on the back of a Subaru wagon and boy is that a very confusing vibe or what

@flargh I just pulled up behind a Prius with a Let’s Go Brandon sticker and was equally confused.

Welp, guess I didn’t move fast enough to do my thinkpiece on the Apple ad.

A few significant things that Apple didn't mention in its iPad keynote: bye bye home button iPads, Logic Pro and Final Cut Pro updates for Mac, and the cost of nanotexture. https://sixcolors.com/post/2024/05/what-apple-didnt-mention-in-its-ipad-keynote/

The Pencil Pro gets Find My, but I'm still losing my Apple TV Remote between the cushions?!

I thought you couldn't touch the nano-texture finish on the other displays. What magic is happening here?

Fun fact for those of you who have read ALL SOULS LOST: Mike Lucifer’s office is in a real building in Union Square. I’ve never been up to the top floor but it looks like the kind of place a spiritual consultant might hang out his shingle. Wave to Irma!

Achievement unlocked, rolled a virtual dice with my hands.

A pair of hands made of bananas pick up a giant D20 and throw it, in VR.

If I had to take a drink every time Tim Cook mentioned AI on this call, I would already be hammered, about 7 minutes in.

People ask me, “How's your mental health doing at the moment, James?”.

I trust this answers the question.

A man shoots bananas out of his hands in VR. It’s unclear why.

@jamesthomson This concerns me.

It’s easy to recognize the foreign tourists at the Smithsonian: they’re the ones taking incredulous picture of the “no firearms” sign outside.

Less than two weeks after Apple changed its stance on emulator apps, a retro game emulator is #1 on the App Store. This isn’t just about pent-up demand—it’s about penned-up demand, and Apple changing its tune is to everybody’s benefit. https://sixcolors.com/post/2024/04/apples-emulator-about-face-is-good-for-everyone/

@davidbcohen Most of their recent action has been focused on Switch emulators, which are understandably more contentious than vintage games. Delta’s long established; I feel like if they had a leg to stand on, they would have gone after it already.

dmoren,
@dmoren@zeppelin.flights avatar

@davidbcohen Possible, but I’m skeptical. There is some solid legal ground for emulators, and might be a losing battle for Nintendo.
