  1. Sigh. In #iOS26 and #iPadOS26 26.4, the entire album UI in Music takes the colours from the cover art. Damn it, Apple, I want my user interface to look consistent, and I use light mode for a reason!

  2. #Bummer thought of the day:

    What if AI slop and associated brain-drain causes all arts/sciences to devolve like #UIDesign has been devolving for the past 20 years?

    Can you imagine what the surgery or civil engineering equivalent to #LiquidAss will be like?

    Ugh.

  3. “Apple is only continuing to patch iOS 18 on devices that can’t run iOS 26.”

    Wow. So not only has Apple lost any design culture it had, it also doesn’t give a shit about your security either any longer. This is the mother of all dark patterns right here.

    Anyone know if this is the same for macOS?

  4. Yesterday evening I unceremoniously and sadly deleted, one by one, every app every photo every video and every document - all data from icloud - using a lovely pink iPad Mini.

    The day before was the same, for several iphones, then a purged Apple Watch too. The laptops were before, long ago. My favorite was the 1Ghz Titanium G4 PowerBook - I'll always miss that perfection.

    So, goodbye to modern Apple Inc. I loved your ways and means, your engineering prowess, industrial design, and the inspiration in every direction offered over so many decades.

    I'm keeping the water-cooled Quad Core G5 PowerMac (PPC64 970MP A1177). You can attempt to pry it from my cold dead hands alongside a GP101... but please do not touch that one last, beautiful, and forever best example of IBM + Apple innovation - before Apple leadership sold out to Intel, pushed upon every emacs user the worthless Touchbar, and the scissor-chicklet keyboards with a lawsuit. But never forget Liquidass, crowning achievement and example of Apple's downfall.

    How sad; sorry about your demise, Apple. I'll miss who you once were.
