Three quick things about the new MacBook Neo: 1) The introductory video is really fun to watch. 2) It appears Apple is still capable of making a laptop WITHOUT A FUCKING NOTCH. Would you look at that. 3) Citrus, yes.

Found yet another folder with stuff belonging to my grandfather. This appears to be a German (or Austrian?) train pass issued during WWII, dated 6 April 1943.

I’m starting to recognise rhetorical patterns in articles and scripts for videos that are clearly revealing that the piece was written with the assistance of some ‘AI’ tool. One such pattern I’m encountering a lot is this type of articulation: “This isn’t just [that thing]. This is [something else].” Example: “This wasn’t just a press conference. It was a demonstration of sovereign confidence.” Once you start seeing it, you can’t unsee it. It’s increasingly everywhere. #FuckAI

Hilarious malapropism of the day:

This 14-minute video does a good job at summarising the problem with Apple’s Liquid Glass and how we got here from skeuomorphism through flat design. If you want to raise awareness among laypeople, this can be used to introduce them to the subject in a plain, comprehensible way.

Photography pet peeve №4,028: LUMIX is not a camera manufacturer, it's the name of a line of cameras produced by Panasonic.

A surprising amount of content creators say stuff like “I contacted LUMIX to explain the issue to them…” or “This is another great premium compact from LUMIX”

Panasonic.
Panasonic.
It's Panasonic.

I bet these are also the kind of people who say “I wrote a blog” when they mean “blog POST”.

Pretty much the same things I was pointing out here a few days ago. Looks like I’m not the only lunatic believing Cook could have done better. https://www.macworld.com/article/3043477/apple-is-full-of-it.html
