The way tech companies constantly do stuff that nobody asked for really tells you a lot about their bigger ideology. They tell themselves that you will like it over time. What they mean is you’ll learn to endure it, or you’ll give up. quality of UI is not actually anywhere on their radar
new iOS update is sleek and also defaults in Music to “you must want songs transition as they would on a dance floor.” so many people will wonder why they can’t just listen to an album. Apps > Music > Song Transitions > toggle off.

Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?

TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

Making AI art is like instead of going out for an evening with friends, talking, and doing the really nice meal followed by dessert and then lazing about in a park nearby swearing at bats - you just press a button and suddenly you're so full you could burst and have rabies.

I am just as pissed off as he is. Fuck AI. These fucks would be happy for the end of general purpose computing and for us to be forced to use (rent) computing services forever instead. It's all leading to a rental economy. Fuck. A. I.

people getting their spotify wrapped today: it's a great time to switch to another service. spotify is doubling and tripling down on taking ICE's business and running ads.

switching to tidal took me all of a few minutes and they made their own annual most-played thing anyway.

There's a couple reasons so many IWW songs are set to the tunes of hymns and one is that the Salvation Army Band would show up and try to stop workers organizing by playing hymns to drown out speeches, so the Wobblies came up with words so they could sing along. SA has been trash all along.
It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

I always find it weird when Hegseth tries to act like he's tough and the embodiment of masculinity when he really looks like a failed game show host.
i'm actually struck by how pete hegseth isn't just a cowardly man but a capital-c Coward. a guy who gets off on abusing and hurting people he thinks are weaker than him and then tries to run and hide when there might be consequences
