Okay, for the folks who asked: here's the majority AI view, writing up the reasonable, thoughtful view on AI that the vast majority of people in tech hold, that gets overshadowed by the bluster and hype of the tycoons trying to shill their nonsense. anildash.com/2025/10/17/t... Please share!

something I like from the train wreck of #iOS26 UI… in the notes app, the visible switch from layout and list options to text options when you select text. It’s obvious what it does, and why. it was one of the few things that has delighted me when I discovered it!

#iOS26 is the first Apple update where I really, really wish I could revert it. The UI is poorly thought out with terrible usability problems, even with reduce transparency enabled. Swipe interactions have a very slight lag. Graphics and haptics are stuttery.
Overall, an F grade update.

does anyone know if it’s possible to turn off the weird glow that happens when you tap into text bars in #ios26? it’s distracting.
and for that matter, all of the superfluous movement? the “Reduce Motion” doesn’t actually reduce the motion that’s annoying.

I just heard the new Sublime jam, ON THE RADIO, before it’s been released on any streaming service. That’s frikkin’ cool.

I picked up a nice, working #Commodore64 system for a decent price. Now I just need to acquire a new power supply, so it doesn’t blow up.
Anyone know where I could get one in Canada? I’m assuming I’m gonna need to mail order it, since the retro tech scene in Sask is kinda small.
