It was fun trying to use the original iPod again! I didn't expect the hardest part to be getting music onto the iPod. #apple #ipod

New iPad Pro looks neat! I still can't do my job or most of my hobbies from an iPad but it seems good for the people who can do that. https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/05/apple-unveils-stunning-new-ipad-pro-with-m4-chip-and-apple-pencil-pro/

Every publisher, blog, and newsletter not on Fediverse platforms is making a mistake. The simple fact that external links won’t punish you in the algorithm™️ here is so, so important.

A conversation that keeps popping up in my mind since FOSDEM centers around open source projects and “AI,” and I still don’t know what I think. So let me share some thoughts here on the famously nuance-friendly Internet. 😜

During a chat w/folks from several open source organizations, someone suggested GNOME could attract funding by “sprinkling some AI on it.” Several folks laughed at the topical joke, but then realized it was in earnest. 🧵

The era of Apple slowly opening up its devices and playing nice with the competition has seemingly ended. Malicious compliance is now the name of the game. https://www.spacebar.news/mr-cook-tear-down-that-wall/

Spotlight on Mac is so great, especially with the ability to search for text inside documents (even text in Excel worksheets and other stuff). It’s one of those things macOS figured out years ago and Windows still hasn’t matched.

I wrote about everything wrong with Opera Browser and Opera GX, and why you should never use anything made by current-day Opera. (please boost for visibility!)

I've rolled out an update for ImageShare, my open-source image upload tool for low-end and legacy web browsers (originally designed for the 3DS web browser). There are new features and lots of improvements for self-hosting! #retrocomputing #3ds #wiiu #webdev

I made a working concept for an alt text generator browser extension using the GPT-4 API, it’s pretty cool! The low detail option in the API seems to work fine for this, so each processed image is less than $0.01 in API billing.

I’m not sure if this could be released on the Chrome Web Store because it would need an API key from the user to run. Maybe it would be better as a PWA anyway so it could be used on other platforms? #gpt #tech

The Pegasus Arrives. One of my favorite #BattleStarGalactica moments made all the more powerful by Bear McCreary's amazing music. Wish the hope had lasted a little bit longer, but this scene will always be pure awesome. https://youtu.be/5Teb-nW7efk?si=5vJxMrOJCQJmGicX

I'll support Windows on ARM if Microsoft gives it better backwards compatibility than X86-64.

If you're emulating/code-morphing/whatever, give me 16-bit support back!

I’m not really a watch person outside of smartwatches, but I really like the Casio W-217H. It’s so light I forget it’s on my arm sometimes.

Only issue is that I had to replace the stock band because it kept pinching me, now I have a cool orange band. 😎

There aren’t a lot of Lemmy apps for iPhone yet, so I’ve just been using the web version as an installed web app. It actually works pretty well, even with inline image previews and scrolling through long chains of comments.

Has anyone made a website that lists a bunch of popular software with the verified direct download links? That feels like something that should exist with search engines being increasingly unreliable.
