  1. Or something *like* iOS. I know it isn't ideal, but I like its compromises and priorities (in terms of UI and general concepts) better than Android's. TBH I don't know a lot about the alternative phone OSs out there, but I am not too optimistic I'd align better with them.

  2. CW: Trump, “AI” picture

    You may have seen the “AI”-generated picture in which Trump stylises himself as Jesus Christ — if not, you are lucky, and *don’t* click on the link.

    Now I found that German journalist Maximilian Schönherr (@archivradio) has created a counter picture (also using “AI”) with an alternative idea of the current POTUS. It is a bit too cheerful in my eyes (I don't see Trump that way), but other than that, I kind of like it.

  3. If you use YouTube, I suggest you check out the videos of Hannah Fry, professor of Public Understanding of Mathematics at Cambridge. They are on a wide range of topics. I stumbled upon them by accident, have watched a few, on population-level disease screening, how attractive men and women find the other sex, Morrocan tile patterns, and things. They are surprisingly entertaining, and she is super charismatic. Highly recommended.
