Safari 26.1 comes with many, many bug fixes! :)
Safari 26.1 arrives today. What does this bring developers? Many improvements to Anchor Positioning. A refactor of how WebKit handles CSS Units, bringing relative units (rlh, ic, cap, cqw, cqi, cqmin, cqmax) to SVG for the first time. And many other fixes.

Rooting not just for a Game 7 of the World Series, but another 18 inning game that goes so long on Saturday night that the clocks fall back at 2am before it’s ended and everyone gets tremendously confused about what time it is.

Bluesky needs to support the new multi-layer icon format on iOS so this new logo can work well with Liquid Glass and tint or dark modes. Right now it stands out like a sore thumb

iPhone 17 Pro Camera Review: Dolomites — Travel Photographer - Austin Mann
Buongiorno from the Dolomite mountains! At Apple’s keynote last week, I was most interested in the new 48-megapixel 4x telephoto lens, the 8x telephoto lens, Center Stage selfie mode, 4K ProRes Log at 120FPS, and the new Photographic Style, Bright. As always, Apple’s presentation is full of flash

Rip one of my HomePod minis, it thinks that the touch surface is being pressed constantly, which is making it reset in a loop

(Both my 1st gen HomePods have outlasted it and are still going strong🫡 )
