Nusm,

One of the most classic Far Side cartoons. It looks like it’s been edited to add to the sides (it was originally more square) and recolored.

Nusm,

Chokelahoma - dude, that’s hilarious!

Nusm,

I know it sucks, but the dev is actually rewriting this app from the ground up in a new environment, so it’s like starting over with a beta version. There’s still lots of bugs to work out, but he’s pushing updates pretty quickly, and was responsive to my bug report.

Nusm,

Do this, don’t do that, can’t you read the sign?

Nusm,

I know this doesn’t help, but on TestFlight the dev said that he rewrote the app from the ground up to make it better. It’s frustrating to lose everything, but in the end the app is going to be faster, smoother, and have more features. Unfortunately right now, it’s like starting over.

Nusm,

Yeah, I get it, it’s frustrating, but I’m glad it’s still being developed and not abandoned. I hope it’s a much better app in the long run.

Nusm,

That’s the plot of the Black Mirror episode San Junipero from season 3.

Nusm,

I think the T2 was to insinuate that it was “Twitter 2”. I didn’t understand the rebrand, because, even though it’s been a few years, Pebble to me is still associated with the smart watch.

I actually signed up and used it a little, but I put up a funny post with a Corvette that had a wheel off sitting on wood blocks with the caption, “When Rednecks get Corvettes! 🤣” It was a stupid little joke, but my post was flagged as offensive and removed. At that point I made one more post explaining what had happened, and that I was going to be leaving the platform. I left the post up for a couple of weeks and then deleted my account. If that was considered offensive, my sarcastic self didn’t stand a chance on that platform.

I’m not surprised they didn’t get any traction.

Nusm,

🤣

Nusm,

Unless she doesn’t like who you’re married to! (Taps forehead)

Nusm,

And his tax returns.

And his healthcare plan. His big beautiful healthcare plan that is much better than Obamacare.

Nusm,

Aaaaaaaand he pulled a hamstring getting activated.

Nusm,

I’ll see your Kathleen Turner and raise you a Nina Blackwood.

Nusm,

Or “Good food served here - eat?”

Nusm,

As a musician, most scenes with characters “playing” an instrument are ridiculous. I mean, they do all this research for rolls, but they can’t be bothered to figure how to put their mouth on the instrument and some basic things that make it look like they’re really playing?

Samsung joins Google in RCS shaming Apple (www.theverge.com)

Samsung has released a new video in support of Google’s #GetTheMessage campaign which calls for Apple to adopt RCS or “Rich Communication Services,” the cross-platform protocol pitched as a successor to SMS that adopts many of the features found in modern messaging apps… like Apple’s own iMessage.

Nusm,

at which point Apple fanboys/girls start bitching because the text bubbles are ‘the wrong color’ which it’s seriously the most ridiculous first-world problem I’ve ever heard of.

Wait…… isn’t this the whole point of the article? Samsung and Google are bitching because they don’t want to be green bubbles. Don’t make it out like this is all iPhone users. Google has had I can’t count how many substandard messaging apps, but now they’ve developed their own proprietary format and are crying for Apple to support it.

So let me get this straight, Google & Samsung want Apple to be forced to do something that will cost Apple sales and increase sales for their competitors. Good luck with that.

Nusm,

What I want is for all of the companies to, use a common (preferably open) standard for messaging as a default. I don’t give a shit which it is. Ideally they would all do so voluntarily because it’s the right thing to do for their users. Since Apple refuses to let anyone else use iMessage, RCS was created, and made available to be used, even by Apple.

So Apple came up with a great system that encourages people to stay in the ecosystem, and Google is mad about it. So Google comes up with an iMessage clone, and now they’re pitching a fit that everybody won’t jump onto their implementation. Which, while RCS is open, Google’s implementation is not. “Apple is locking everyone into their system! Make them stop so we can get them locked into ours!”

But apparently Apple can’t be bothered to play nice with others no matter what because all they care about is squeezing every possible dollar they can out of their suckers, I mean users.

Wait… wait… you think Apple (or any other company for that matter) should do what’s best for those that aren’t they’re customers?? So I’m going to say this again a little louder for the people in the back - Apple is under no obligation to modify the way their products work to promote the competition, which will lose them sales. And as an Apple stockholder, I’m beyond fine with that.
