It’s criminal that Albon was taken out after making a move like this. https://mastodon.nl/

The notable thing in the middle chart for me is that none of the big social networks are growing in any real way. I assume there are coming up that people like me in our 30s won’t even hear about for another 6-12 months 👴🏻 https://www.threads.net/@randderuiter/post/C8AlewrSnjr

Bad Boys Ride or Die does $56M at the US box office its opening weekend, more than the previous pre-COVID entry, and almost matching the Bad Boys 2 opening.

Movies aren’t dead, folks :snake_salute:

This is the loop one would hope that Apple could shake the VR space out of.

Anecdotally, I will say the people I know who like the Vision Pro the most are the people who were into VR already. I think we’re still waiting for that “aha!” moment with visionOS that expands the market, and I hope we get it tomorrow 🤞

Honestly true everywhere, just in different ways depending on the app.

If AI is good for anything, you’d love to see a button for “show me the replies that I would want to read and won’t ruin my day”

Finally got around to updating the old bio!

matt, to passkeys
@matt@isfeeling.social avatar

truly are the new lock in for password managers. I'm trying to be a good citizen and use passkeys wherever I can, but now I can't properly try other password managers without needing to create dozens of new keys. I'm trying Proton Pass now, and it's a major pain.

Extrapolate this out to a world where passkeys are the norm and effectively all of my accounts authenticate this way, and moving your data becomes impossible. :dumpster:

matt,
@matt@isfeeling.social avatar

I know the FIDO Alliance and passkey enthusiasts will say that the passkey standard isn't built to lock users in, and migrating them should be possible.

That's well and good, but we're several years into this and zero of the major players support this. Whether you use Apple, Google, 1Password, or anything else, your passkeys are locked to those accounts today. maybe you can move in a few years, but you can't now. Yay.

matt,
@matt@isfeeling.social avatar

Something something, don't get a product today based on hopes and dreams of future software updates…

As an aside, Apple is the only place I've been that makes it impossible to use anything besides their password manager for setting up a passkey. It's maddening.

matt,
@matt@isfeeling.social avatar

For the record, I like passkeys on the whole, and do hope that this major issue is resolved and I can say, "yay, passkeys are as consumer-friendly as passwords!"

I first worried about lock in 2 years ago…

…and nothing's improved since then, as far as I can tell.

Yesterday was a helluva wild ride.

Eye surgery was mildly terrifying, but went well.

Worst part: During the hour+ ride home, my eye COMPLETELY FOGGED OVER. I couldn't see a thing out of it.

Did I panic? Well, yes, yes I did. I called the surgery, they told me they'd ask the doctor, get back to me.

10 minutes later, got a call that that was normal, that it would clear. And it did.

But that was the longest 10 minutes of my life.

This week is about healing, then another procedure. Cheers! 😎

@davemark Glad it seems to have gone well!

I totally get the fear, though. When I got LASIK a few years ago, they warned me that during the process I’d be blind for about 30 seconds, and even though I knew it was coming, it was not a good feeling.
