  1. @decryption a "sereve misalignment" you say? :P #thesizzle

    That said, I can't wait for the collective voices of the Fields Medallists to get ignored entirely like everyone else.

  5. @decryption To answer your #TheSizzle question (and apologies if this is part of a flood of answers), it looks like Aylo is relying on the iOS age gating in operating system. Basically if you're underage in the UK, the OS should force age filters on Safari/App store content anyway *without* the server side needing to do anything.

    That means that assuming the user has a *correct* age set in their Apple account, Safari should deny access to Aylo's websites before the request goes out, so Aylo can assume any request from iOS26.4 Safari must necessarily come from someone of age.

    So in other words: They *arent* doing age verification, they are instead pointing at Apple and saying "But sir! They said it was ok!"

  9. Google's autonomous driving company has been working with high-level federal public servants and even briefed the transport minister on its "2026 plans in Australia" — but one big road bump remains.

I can’t recall in which medium a discussion of #Jaycar selling Brass Monkey portable fridges came up (here? #TheSizzle? who knows, but my search-fu has failed me) but I got an email from them today promoting a sale so I’m posting it here in the hopes that it finds its way through the æther to those for whomst it is relevant 🤞

  17. I bought what I thought was a good price HDD to finally get all my old home videos and parents’ old photos and crap onto a single device. It’s shipping from UK!

    So now I spend every day nervously reading the Sizzle hoping not to find a bargain on there.

  20. Enjoying The Sizzle as always. This typo(?) seems Freudian:

    “Canva spin-doctors sight the expanded product features, such as their new AI capabilities as the impotence behind the change.”

  24. I just wanna say that #TheSizzle's #Zine is the best thing I have received in the mail all year. I love the care with which it was assembled from delightfully thoughtful stories, and also how it has a #Winamp playlist on the inside cover that I totally did not recreate in Apple Music.

    Thanks @decryption, I know it must have been an absolute pain in the ass to make, but this is *such* a good artefact to put out into the world ❤️ Gives me all the warm fuzzies :D
