Nice firmware update this week from #Sony for the #a7IV. Mostly UI related things but I really appreciate the rotating display info when taking vertical photos. #SonyAlpha #ILCE7M4

My #BlackFriday shopping interests have shifted as I got older. Less electronic gadgets and more practical mundane things like comfy sweatpants. ☺️

Community Notes on #IG is a mess. Instead of explaining that this video compilation is #AI, this person offers some random personal story and an irrelevant link. #Instagram #Meta #WisdumbOfTheCrowd

Spotted this at the grocery store. Why not just sell it it for $2.79 instead of making shoppers jump through hoops. 😂 #retail #groceries #supermarket #consumerism

The #AWS outage the other day should be a reminder of the old saying.. don't put all your egs in one basket. When the AI bubble bursts, those data centers can pivot their business into providing backup/redundant services to businesses whenever AWS goes down.

It's dissapointing that #Frontier #Fios status page never shows #outages. When it's totally obvious that they're having system wide issues. downdetector.com/status/front...

I know phone addiction comes down to self control, but I would like a dumb phone for the smaller size. However, the current selection is terrible. And most don't even have a hotspot feature. #smartphones #dumbphones #tech
Elias Wachtel knows that Gen Zers like him have an attention span that is shot and screen time that is “out of control.” So he switched to a dumbphone and embarked on the road to digital minimalism: https://theatln.tc/DskLQDWH

This isn't surprising at all. I've heard of other "outrage" stories in recent years being propagated by bots also. Crazy times we live in. gizmodo.com/cracker-barr... #botnet #infosec #propaganda

Doesn't that make more sense than lots of people caring about Cracker Barrel?

I'm older and do this too. I usually have the TV on low volume as background noise while I do other things. Having the captions on helps me know what's going on without having to turn the volume up. It's also funny catching censor automation block out non offensive words. 😂

Trying to make a simple change to my Frontier Fios internet plan and it's turning into quite an ordeal. Multiple holds, transfers, upsells, etc. 🤷‍♀️

Ugh #tarrifs are in full effect. Seeing prices of new #camera gear selling for 20% - 30% more than couple months ago.

Starting to see #AI generated #TV commercials now. To the casual observer, these look very realistic. Probably a good time to talk to any older family members about this so they don't end up buying useless crap or falling for scams.

This dual capture feature has been on #GalaxyS phones for at least 3 years. And you can even choose between PIP or split screen recording. Maybe #Apple will offer that in the #iPhone 18. 😏

Have to say the iPhone Air is nice. Wonder how many people will give up some camera features for thinness.

Found this on #LinkedIn. Some guy posting about a random experience at a restauraant. Surprised he wasn't posting about how the suggested tips are incorrectly calculated post-tax here. I wonder if this was intentional, or just bad software. #tax #gratuity #commerce #software #math

Installed iOS 26 beta on my iPhone 13. Feel like I time traveled back to Windows 7 with the Aero design. 😂 On the positive side, it feels very responsive and not sluggish at all.

Got this flyer in the mail opposing the upcoming special elections to temporarily override the state constitution. As the old saying goes.. every accusation is an admission. We certainly live in unprecedented times right now. #California #democracy
