This verdict is surreal. Will it change anything? Will a felony conviction change anyone’s mind?

@davemark It's crazy you can even run as president as a felon and even more so he might still win.

According to a poll mentioned on NPR, if I heard it right, it's not going to move the needle much on voting intentions.

Today, I tried adding a basic widget to Rizzference and it works… fine, I guess? The experience of making the widget is horrible though

@davidbures What did you dislike the most about it?

Personally I find designing it to be harder but I am probably not the best designer of UIs to begin with.

"NYPD will deploy drones to respond to 911 calls"

  • Pilot program is in 5 precincts.
  • Each precinct will get rooftop drone platform
  • Calling it “drones as first responders”

This a good thing? Drones can certainly get eyes to an emergency quickly. Video footage admissible in court?

Privacy implications? Will people be shooting these down?

@davemark It could be very helpful. The problem is will it get abused and how would we know or stop it?

@marcoarment That makes up my mind on a new MB Air. I'll wait for the m4.

I know you can always be waiting for better but if we're getting switches this fast, I might as well wait, the new one might be here in the fall and my M1 MB air is fine.

Fully expecting Apple to announce that the Apple Vision Pro is being rolled out in more countries later today. It would make sense to do that before WWDC, especially at an event where they’re rumored to announce an Apple Pencil that works with both the iPad and Apple Vision Pro.

@simonbs this is my hope rather than simply being ever so slightly more green by minimising travel.

@mybirdcards That's a quite distinct bird which I don't believe I've seen in my area. I'm going to try and see if I can find it in this area.

Check Out This Apple Watch iPad Demo Unit From 2014 https://www.macrumors.com/2024/05/01/apple-watch-ipad-demo-unit/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

@macrumors That's pretty slick and it still boggles my mind you can't really have just a watch and an iPad. Surely they might be missing out on some sales because of that for no good reason. Especially since they got around to bringing the health app to iPadOS.

My 2 cents:

ALL car OSes (CarPlay, Android Auto, etc.) should support all users:

  • My phone should connect automatically as soon as I get in the car.
  • The interface should be recognizable, easy to navigate, and fast.
  • No crashes. Ever.
  • All my apps should be supported, especially music (Apple Music and/or Spotify) podcasts (no matter the app) and Maps (Google/Apple).

If not, it's just green bubble, blue bubble all over again.

@davemark I think the auto connect might be hard with multiple people in the car. But it will require someone to come up with an open standard for restricting apps and ensuring they view correctly. I just don’t think anyone wants to do that. I’m not sure it’s even possible to be that middleman when both car manufacturers and Google / Apple probably dont want to pay someone else.
