The level of salt in Apple's press release says everything you need to know about the company and the people who run it 😑

comments #mastodon ? @lisamelton have you ever came across anything that could substantiate this?
This was under a post that I sent to FB, to get people to join in. I just don't know how to respond to this. Not my experience to say the least.

My old mercury thermometer says -36C and the official weather report said it was "only" -42C with windchill this morning, so the busses are still running (they never cancel school ever, no matter how cold it gets. This place is wild.)

hi @ivory , any chance you made hashtag editing easier ?
having to find # on mobile keyboard every time is rather hard :)
Also, maybe suggested tags? Given that Tags are basically the algorithm here - I think more work should be done in client side to facilitate it please.

In another stress-test for the team, our website seems to have temporarily buckled under heavy traffic 🌩️

Worry not, as our engineers are working on bringing it back as we speak!

hi @siracusa , looked through the ATP's past show notes - you mentioned a guide that tells you how to “fix" settings on new telly, we got new one for our kitchen - QE32Q50AEUXXU - first samsung product that actually works pretty good , so far. I went and disabled all stupid "smoothing" and “sharpening" settings - but I'm sure there are things I didn't think about.
I couldn't find a link to any guides in past ATP shows, I looked at all to April 22, 2021 one - searching for TV. Help!?

This thing is the ultimate road trip machine. I did more than 500 k's on a charge yesterday. It's like a petrol car but without all the downsides.

hey @ivory , feature request - ability to run my new posts via script.
I would love to be able to add things to posts, sign them, etc - all using external scripts. Can that be done?

Trump's presidency was -- by far -- the most corrupt in at least a century. If he gets back in, the corruption will be infinitely worse. We'll be living in what is accurately called a dictatorial "Mafia state".

This isn't speculation. It's simple reality.

https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2024/01/trump-second-term-mafia-state/676128/

I should note that not even one journalism organization even attempted to keep detailed track of the breadth and depth of the corruption in Trump's circle.

Why expect better now?

Critics said that while the hyperloop may be technically feasible, it still only amounts to vaporware. It’s been called a “utopian vision” that would be financially impossible to achieve. It’s one of those technologies that is also “just around the corner,” according to its boosters — despite outwardly appearing to still be years away from completion.
