  1. Looks like someone decided to play hide-and-seek with data packets over a gazillion Apple devices, and then Google thought, "Hey, we want in on the fun too!" 🤔🔍 Meanwhile, the rest of us are just trying to find our keys. 🗝️🤷‍♂️

  2. I have Tourette’s. a pretty mild case. I’m fine with it – I can control it, or rather blend it into my daily life, my movements. it’s all good, I don’t feel bad about it. people usually don’t even notice – even the ones who’ve known me for years.

    BUT! things get really weird when I use my #apple devices.

    oh man, that’s when the tics start being a real issue.

    but not real tics – the ones #apple makes me do. the ones I actually love. I keep moving my head in random directions, answering #siri through my #airpods. I wave one hand around to control my apple watch. and sometimes the other hand shakes too – enough to activate the damn “shake to undo” gesture on my iphone.

    now that must look strange.

  6. @jon @Vivaldi
    Well, that is like: giving some #freedom to the people locked into #Apple's #walledGarden :tony_smiling:
    I am #happy you posted here about the #dev's work on #Android. I felt quite unpleasant this time, as I thought it was left behind... :)
    TY!

  7. 🖥️🍏 So, a group of tech wizards at gimletlabs.ai decided to unleash #AI to write some flashy Metal kernels for Apple devices, because apparently that's how you impress people in 2025. 🤖🚀 Spoiler alert: they claim a mind-boggling 87% speed boost, but let's be real, most of us are still trying to figure out what a "Metal kernel" even is. 🙄🎉

  11. Now that #Windows has the #AppleDevices app to replace #iTunes when it comes to making local, complete, encrypted backups of #Apple devices i.e. #iPhone, #iPod, #iPad, etc. - Windows also needs #macOS 's #ImageCapture app for quick exports of photo/video files. That'll be nice.

    Update:

    Well, apparently it's already achievable simply by having the Apple Devices app installed, and using the default Photos app on Windows.

    Doesn't seem to be working for me tho (the device isn't showing up in the Photos app, tho is on the Apple Devices app) - but that could just be either the fact that I'm doing this on a virtual machine (on
    #Linux), or bcos my device is an (outdated) iPod lol.

    Cool tho I guess that this simple functionality isn't somehow
    exclusive to Macs but also Windows PCs.
