Trying on this Vision Pro thing and I think it’s got potential. Especially with the multi-fit band the weight is barely noticeable, at least for me.

Loving the fact that I can just scatter my windows around, sit down and type on a keyboard when I need to, but otherwise can gesticulate as my heart desires. I’ve always needed to move to think, so this really fits me well.

The avatar thing is… lol but otherwise, it’s a winner for me! How are you using Vision Pro? Any hot tips for good apps here?

#Apple hat am 9. Juni dieses Jahres während der #WWDC2025- #Keynote zahlreiche #Software- #Updates präsentiert, darunter auch das neue # iOS26 für das #iPhone. Nun hat das Unternehmen allerdings offiziell bestätigt, dass iOS 26 aufgrund von regulatorischen Bedenken für Nutzer und Nutzerinnen in der #EU zunächst ohne einige bestimmte Funktionen ausgeliefert werden wird.

After the #Microsoft frenzy last week and the #Apple disaster yesterday, on today's menu is the @EUCommission #DMA compliance workshop with #Alphabet #Google.

What should I do?

Yay #Google goes full in, claiming the #DMA would make Europeans "second class citizens" on Android 😆

And they do the same thing #Apple did yesterday: counting the number of meetings with regulators and other stakeholders in n attempt of proving good will. Still think this rather raises the question how the heck Google can still be non-compliant after all that engagement. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Невероятное ощущение - сидеть с ноутбуком Apple на коленях и держать в руках iPhone, слушая истории Дэниела Коттке, университетского друга Стива Джобса и одного из первых сотрудников Apple Inc. Маунтин-Вью пульсирует кипучей энергией - это место, где богатое прошлое и новейшие технологии встречаются, чтобы создать завтрашний день. #Apple #МаунтинВью #Технологии #СтивДжобс #ДэниелКоттке

Incredible feeling - sitting with an Apple laptop on my lap and an iPhone in hand, while listening to stories told by Daniel Kottke, a university friend of Steve Jobs and one of the first employees at Apple Inc. Mountain View pulsates with a bubbling energy - it's a place where the rich past and the latest technology meet to shape tomorrow. #Apple #MountainView #Technology #SteveJobs #DanielKottke

Why not #Go?
Because it's from #Google.

Why not #Csharp or #Fsharp?
#Microsoft.

Why not #Rust or #Zig?
#LLVM (aka #Apple & friends).

Ultimately, most of languages I avoid like the plague are controlled by #BigTech one way or another.

C is simple enough to get several alternative compilers based on useful standards.² ³

¹ In theory I still prefer #Oberon07, but when I want to code something useful I still use C instead to lower the entry barrier for other devs, because there are too many incompatible implementations of the compiler and "standard" library.

² Ok, #Python, #Scheme and #Lua have similar qualities, but for the tools I write I usually prefer binary executables with no runtime.

³ No, #C++ is not an option. 😉

WTF, Apple. Typing some notes in TextEdit, "T3 = ..." AND IT SUDDENLY GOES:

T3 =1,339 tn³

Disabling "Text replacement" in settings does not fix this. Neither does "Edit -> Substitutions -> Text Replacement".
How do I remove this terrible thing?

Technology is weird. Several things can be true at once. #Google is a piece of trash. #Microsoft is a piece of trash. #Apple is a piece of trash

Using an ungoogled Android device is the best option. But only GrapheneOS. Using a Google infected Android phone is worse than using an iPhone. Most #Linux phones have terrible security practices and also user experience.

So therefore the second best option is using the most sought after phone, which happens to be an iPhone. #Technology is weird

I got yet another Mac. It's a Macbook Air 13" from 2012, got it for $120. I love these old Intel Macs. Obviously the old MacOS was deleted to make space for an updated Linux Mint. Everything worked great, except the b43 wifi driver, which made the laptop not to wake up from sleep. I blacklisted 2-3 drivers it was pulling along with it, and I now use a tiny wifi dongle with great success. Overall, very happy.

More:

"As ever, tariffs are paid by the companies importing goods, never by the providing country as Trump routinely claims."

"So if the final deal does include this claimed tariff, Apple and all US companies that import from China will face steeper costs than before. Prior to the start of Trump's "reciprocal" announcement in April, which had nothing to do with tariffs applied by other countries, US companies were paying around 15% in tariffs, and Apple was paying significantly less."

First of all, movie theaters could use an update, if anyone can do it, it would be Apple.

Second: If Apple gets its own distribution mechanism, which is under consideration, Apple could finally have the niche it needs for its Vision VR headsets. All that remains is for the company to make the experience attractive enough to pry movie lovers away from their computer and phone screens. That will not be an easy task.

Teil 1: Browser-Anarchie für iOS 2025:
Die komplette Wahrheit über digitale Überwachung und Apples WebKit-Tyrannei!

Mann, was für ein wilder Trip durch die Browser-Hölle! Nach monatelangem investigativem Journalismus in den dunkelsten Ecken des digitalen Überwachungskapitalismus können wir euch die schockierende Wahrheit präsentieren: Die meisten iOS-Browser sind datenschutztechnische Zombies, die eure Seelen an die Surveillance-Konzerne verkaufen . Aber keine Panik, Freaks – wir haben auch die Lösung gefunden!

Die WebKit-Diktatur: Apples eiserner Griff um das mobile Web
Bevor wir in die gnadenlosen Details der Browser-Apokalypse einsteigen, müssen wir über Apples totalitäre WebKit-Beschränkung sprechen . Diese digitale Tyrannei zwingt jeden Browser-Hersteller auf iOS, die hauseigene WebKit-Engine zu verwenden – Chrome, Firefox, Edge sind nur bunte Safari-Verkleidungen ohne echte Superkräfte .
Diese Beschränkung macht echte Browser-Innovation unmöglich und zementiert Apples Kontrolle über das mobile Web . 84% aller iOS-Nutzer weltweit sind in diesem Browser-Gulag gefangen , während Apple behauptet, es diene der “Sicherheit” – in Wahrheit ist es knallharte Marktmanipulation.

Es folgt Teil 2:

A brand new 68k Mac emulator quietly dropped last night!!

“Snow” can emulate the Mac 128k, 512k, Plus, SE, Classic, and II. It supports reading disks from bitstream and flux-floppy images, and offers full execution control and debugging features for the emulated CPU. Written using Rust, it doesn't do any ROM patching or system call interception, instead aiming for accurate hardware-level emulation.

A screen capture of the new “Snow” Mac emulator, that came from its website. It depicts an emulated Mac in the centre of the main window, with a number of floating windows surrounding it: registers, breakpoints, instruction history, watchpoints, and disassembly.

I just realized that today is the 24th anniversary of when I started the #Safari and #WebKit projects at #Apple. 🤦‍♀️ Which just goes to show how much my life has moved on and changed since leaving the Fruit Company over a dozen years ago. 🤷‍♀️

Dog almighty, I am old AF. But let's keep that fact between ourselves, OK? 😂

It's also @kocienda's birthday. Which is why I remembered this at all. Happy birthday, Ken! 💖

Can't say I blame them. Apple's CarPlay Ultra would have direct control over a vehicle's features.

CarPlay Ultra: Autohersteller fahren offenbar nicht drauf ab

Deutsche Hersteller und andere große Automarken haben offenbar kein Interesse an CarPlay Ultra. Klassisches CarPlay wird für Apple dadurch umso wichtiger.

While others were up in arms over yesterday’s Apple’s #F1 promo, I had the opposite problem: how do I get the offer? (Yes, I know it’s a code, just go with me on this.) I didn’t get the notice presumably because I opted out of receiving promotions from #Apple. But does that mean I wasn’t offered the discount at all (which just offsets Fandango’s fee to encourage preorder)?
Good news: I found it in Wallet > Apple Card > Rewards & Offers.
Bad news: Only on #iPhone, and why is it in Apple Card?

Unerwünschte Apple-Werbung: Push-Mitteilung verärgert iPhone-Nutzer in den USA

Apple nutzt seine Apps als Werbekanal für einen F1-Film. iPhone-Besitzer zeigen sich zusehends genervt von solchen Marketingaktionen.

Answer me this. Why are these kind of sunglasses a trend with #conservative men? Is this like the white trash version of the #apple glass headset thing. You look like a twat.

Wenn nun selbst #Apple damit beginnt, Systemdienste dafür zu missbrauchen, um Werbung zu schalten, werden wir schon sehr bald digitale Litfaßsäulen in den Hosentaschen tragen. Die Entwicklungen der letzten Jahre sind eine Katastrophe.

Für ein Tablet der Oberklasse muss man tief in die Tasche greifen, spätestens mit Zubehör können sie teurer sein als High-End-Notebooks.

Fünf Jahre Apple Silicon: Der Unterschätzte

Vor fünf Jahren wurde die Umstellung des Macs von Intel-Prozessoren auf Apple Silicon angekündigt. Apple sprach zurecht von einem “historischen Tag”.

Eagle-eyed product developer @parkerortolani spotted something in Apple's WWDC 2025 presentation: Mastodon. During designer Billy Sorrentino's section on visual intelligence, there's a clear shot of @ivory. "It was clearly both a way to subtly show developers what they can do with their own apps, but also read as a sort of endorsement of Mastodon as a social platform," Ortolani writes on his blog. "Apple didn’t show Bluesky, Threads, or X. They chose to show a third-party Mastodon client."

I never did a pinned intro post, so: Started in #radio 30 years ago, which transitioned to #podcast 20 years ago. “Mac OS Ken” focuses on Apple News. “The Checklist by #SecureMac” focuses on security. Did a show about #StarTrek, until the people who owned it wouldn’t pay a decent wage (no fooling). These days, all I REALLY want to talk about are #bookbinding, #fountainpens, #postcards, and #stationery. Well… and #VR. And #AR. And #Apple and #podcasting and radio.

Oh. And fuck the fascists.

I guess I need to come out clean. I got this whole computer just to install System9 to get to play some old QuickTime-based Star Trek Walking Sims (Captain's Chair & TNG Technical Manual).
