Just played with an #iPhoneDuo for awhile at #Apple store. Was actually a lot more exciting and nicer than I thought it would be. I was very hyped and thought maybe my expectations would crash and burn. But it was actually really enjoyable to use.

I do think the lack of FaceID is terrible. The demo units are not locked in store so you don’t get to really get a feel for how annoying it is. But using an iPad with TouchID is really trash.

Very annoyed the ship times are so far off.

I guess my gut instinct to not use the #tailscale built-in SSHD was probably correct. Just use tailscale for the mesh network connections…

TIL #Hawaii has a cap on age. Forces retirement once a justice reaches 70 years old. Also their term is 10 years. No lifetime appointments.
“Sabrina McKenna must retire by early October 2027 when she turns 70, the mandatory retirement age for Hawaiʻi judges and justices.”

I happened to watch a clip of what apparently is “French slopecore.” Basically, music/music videos made entirely from #AI. For someone (like me) that loves a good hook and pop music, this is like the sirens in the Odyssey leading me to slaughter …

Anyway, now YouTube won’t stop shoving this 💩 in my face, and it’s super irritating. Click if you’re a masochist. #slopecore #French

@transience, did you try rebooting? Could be some migration thingy didn’t finish. Sometimes a reboot will get it unstuck.

Another solution is to turn off iCloud passwords/keychain. It all gets reset. Power off the device, then turn it back on. Go to iCloud and turn password syncing back on to redownload all the keys. Honestly, I’d just upgrade to iOS 27 and let a new codebase give it a shot.

Note: Before you do anything, make sure there is a backup of your device on iCloud or on a computer. I routinely destroyed my iPhone with nightly builds when working at Apple so take my advice with a grain of salt. I feel nothing when running into bugs… 🐛

If you didn’t know #Docker is weird. This is a good introduction to the weirdness of containers started by Docker.

Have many passwords and usernames? Need your #AI bot or agent to have access? #1Password has you covered! This links to a waitlist to try the new feature…

Oopsies! “Seemingly as an accident, overnight several new Linux kernel vulnerability reports were posted to the public Linux kernel mailing list rather than the private security mailing list. The vulnerabilities have yet to be patched on mainline but at least in some cases there are patches undergoing testing or queued in "-next" branches. The CVSS scores are as high as 9.0.”

Looks like #China is clamping down on open-weight #AI and #LLM models being exported. Will probably impact Qwen, Deepseek, Kiki, etc

This will be a big relief for Google, Anthropic, OpenAI etc

Upgrading openssl@3, 3.6.5 -> 3.5.9, 🤔

TP-Link will do anything to sell more routers in the US except provide timely and constant updates to software. They are not unique in this respect. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Anyway, I think I need to buy a new compact travel router… which TP-Link (or other brand) do people recommend? Would be nice if I could just install dd-wrt or some other kind of 3rd-party open-source.

Got back from Korea and I got a check for $1k from the Treasury. Weird I should get this right now… 🤔

This seems like an endorsement of #Deepseek to me... #llm #ai
