@Cdespinosa I’ve been trying to remember … was it in the pre-Jobs2, pre-Copland era that Apple first discussing and demoing data detectors, and summarizing emails? Seems prescient in the current era.

The president and chief of staff of Cal Poly Humboldt have assembled a police force from as far south as San Francisco, and they are currently announcing a “leave or be arrested” throughout the closed campus. Follow live at http://KFRH.net

@Cdespinosa Meanwhile, down south. An encampment appeared not far from my office. The parking lot filled with police. By the end of the day, the police had dissipated. The Chancellor sent this:

The older I get the more I realize that bands I reflexively hated when I was a kid were actually really good.

Case in point: Toto. Back in the day, I loathed "Africa" and "Roseanne" and even thought the soundtrack to Lynch's Dune was pants.

But years before that they come up with an absolutely perfect song like Georgy Porgy and I've got nothing but respect and admiration. (And, I mean, CHERYL LYNN on backing vocals for this.)

Can I simultaneously think that Epic are a bunch of chancers, while also really disliking Apple's handling of them? Yes.

She thought of herself as a drummer who sang. An amazing talent.

@bynkii I agree, the direct comparisons are absurd. She was closer to a jazz drummer in style.

FWIW, my rock critic dad said “Keith Moon is the only rick drummer I saw who could hold his own in a really good jazz band.” Which, if you know him, is a HUGE fucking compliment.

So Microsoft has native Vision Pro version of Teams, but they don't allow InTune to be installed on Vision Pro so I can't login to it. LOL.

If the board says that you have not been entirely candid with them and you have lost their trust, the obvious solution is to simply replace the board

@Cdespinosa It’s fascinating and entirely unfair to think of this as speedrunning the Jobsian story.

Although I thought she should've resigned the Senate (or retired before her last election) sad at the passing of Diane Feinstein.

I hope Katie Porter is appointed to fill her seat. Senate needs people like her.

@kevin boy I’m of two minds there. On the one hand I totally agree with you. On the other hand I’m in her district and I don’t relish being again represented by a right wing nutjob.
