I'm generally okay with Apple's new icons on #macOS, but this one for an external SSD in Tahoe 25.1 looks like a restroom sign. I guess that's supposed to be a USB cable, but 🚻.

I’m not a fan of the Disney live-action remakes, but I’m all in for Guillermo a Stitch. Great idea @colbertlateshow.bsky.social ! @jimmykimmel.com

I really wish Apple would stop with this crap. I've been using computers for 43 years. I just want to save an article to a bookmarking app. Can we have a "pro user" toggle already? I paid you for the computer. May I use it as I want?

I really wish @adobe.com would stop sticking this at the top of every PDF. "This appears to be a long document. Save time by reading a summary." It's three pages! We already live in a world where people don't bother to read or care about details. I don't think Adobe should be encouraging it.
