Wearables like Apple Vision Pro, which make you interact with non-material objects in a contained system, miss the point of how this tech has the potential to augment lives and workflow. Imagine using such a thing to supplement the work you're performing on your laptop/desktop.
Now we're talking productivity boost.
It'll never be that, though, because they want to lock you into an immersive experience. You're bound to find this clunky and ineffective, UI management and app flipping leaching creative energy.
It's a solid pass for me, but I hold out hope that one day, they figure out what augmenting reality really looks like.
On the one hand: Glad for my 9'ers.
On the other hand: Green Bay would have been easier for the Lions.
Sadly true. Was hoping for better, but it's clear now that all they're concerned with is recreating Twitter.
In the end, I expect very little about Bluesky to end up in true decentralization. They're re-creating a silo'd Mastadon, and are doing so poorly.

Have a beautiful day, Nostriches
Whatever did we do for 20 years, without the EU mandating the terms of Internet censorship?

Err, make that 30 for yours truly.

The damage done by NFTs to the normie's perspective on legit BTC application will take a long... LONG while to wear off.
Twitter ending support for profile pictures is a solid start.

A kind of Instagram alternative built on Nostr would be awesome.
(those moments where you regret never learning to code).
Fantastic goals! I'll keep these intentions in mind at the altar tomorrow morning.
Goodnight, Nostr! Rant though I did about you earlier, you're still the best.
It's not wrong. I saw the topic of Nostr and normies trending the other day, and... forget about it. You will never attract a normie crowd when Bitcoin is such a prevalent topic on this site.
Between the Monkees and shitcoin, the normie views all of digital currency with suspicion, and a Bitcoin-enthusiastic environment currently reinforces the cringe they've endured on other sites where the pump and dump spam is unending. It doesn't matter that Nostr is also against these things: it's guilt by association.
If you want to promote Bitcoin here, use the writer's trick: show it, don't say it. Stop talking economic rainbows and unicorns like communists awaiting some glorious revolution, and focus on the tools here -- then use them for normal things. Crypto should be an aid to the normative, not an end in itself.

The Keychron Q1 Max with Gateron Jupiter Bananas. Very nice typing experience on top of a very nice sound. Happy with my Christmas gift.
Veritas. When most people talk about "fixing social media," what they're really talking about is putting their tribe in control of it.

Started in Nebraska. Went to school at Illinois. But somewhere in between, I lived near Ann Arbor.
Proud of the Wolverines tonight. Now get it done.
Last day of the Octave. A very well attended Mass at noon, good local food, and now evening football. Doesn't get much better on this side of the coffin.
A blessed new year to all!
Jerry Jones has been an old man all my life. I'm convinced they've found some sort of alchemy that keeps this man alive.
Usually they load us down with some nonsense game on Saturday nights, just because they can, in their unending mission to saddle us with a game every night of the week.
Not tonight, though. Go Lions!

I've grown fascinated with the mechanical keyboard scene. These people are great. Snobbish about some little thing they've spent hours (and thousands of dollars) investigating, they're like me in the 90's with my mountain of CD's, recordings from the 1920's on down. I love them all.
