iOS 26 RC adds an option to auto-tint app icons based on your iPhone color or your case color.
In the example below, I have a Natural Titanium iPhone and Apple’s Clear Case.

Fantastic app for rewatching personal videos and saved TikToks in your Photo Library, wrapped with a fun retro-camcorder twist.

My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Fanboys are gonna (rightfully) talk shit about Apple Intelligence being so far behind but I think normies are gonna care more about about the redesign and new iPad multitasking (just like how many so many normies only update iOS when there are new emojis).

Excellent NYT graphic.
In the space of about 3 months, tariffs on China:
-- doubled;
-- went up ≈ 2.5X from there;
-- roughly doubled again;
-- went up ≈ 40% from there;
-- and now have dropped ≈ 80% from the peak -- but are still 3X what they were in February.

We need the best educated workforce in the world.
We need the best teachers in the world.
We need to pay our teachers fairly for the important work they do.
No teacher in America should begin at less than $60,000 a year.

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

The Trump regime and DOGE are rolling out this playbook to attack Social Security — one of the most popular and effective government programs.
They're deliberately sabotaging it by firing SSA workers and cutting services.
Why? Because they don't want it to work.
