"When Beijing pressured Apple to remove apps, to store Chinese user data on Chinese servers, to make the iPhone a tool of state surveillance for Chinese citizens—Apple complied. Silently. Efficiently. As Cook’s supply chain required.
This is not a company that can stand up to authoritarianism. This is a company that has made itself a instrument of authoritarianism, because the alternative is losing access to the factories that build its products."

YEP. It's time for an #Apple #Boycott. Yes, Tim Cook is bootlicking, but Apple as a company has been engaged in its own support of Trump's fascism, for example the removal of the #Ice Block app.
Oh, of course, continued approval of the CSAM X/Grok app, continued advertising on X.
Then there's the user/developer hostile policies, malicious compliance in response to the EU DMA, and general enshitification.
Of course, we should also boycott: #Google, #Microsoft, #Amazon, #Meta

Tim Cook is an utter unsalvageable douchebag, a worthy successor to Jobs (may his death have hurt, rest in shit).
While Alex Pretti was being murdered by gestapo goons, Cook was smiling and making buddies with the individual who ordered all that.
Later, when considerable upheaval was detected among apple slav... employees, Cook came up with this insouciant, vapid, tepid, empty, vanilla inanity
Feeling good about that $1k-every-2-years-iphone, already, guys?

Someone just shared with me #Apple's new creative suite service, #CreatorStudio. I'm not going to consider it for obvious reasons. And you shouldn't either!
Even if it ends up being a quality suite, DO NOT USE IT. It's a trap! There are free apps that do the exact same thing as these creative suites. They only exist to get you comfortable enough in them that you feel an intense sense of sunk cost in your familiarity so you can never stop paying for the service.
I do not care that the price looks better than #Adobe's #CreativeCloud. It's still 100% more than you should ever have to spend on software. Especially when I know for a fact that it WILL enshittify.
That is, if it hasn't *already* been an "agentic app" with "AI" shoved up every orifice, which you have to work around just to do any work!
IT'S A SCAM.

I've bought Apple products for nearly 20 years. Then Tim Cook attended a White House screening of the Melania documentary—hours after Border Patrol agents shot and killed Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse, in Minneapolis.
So I wrote the comparison I needed: Framework Laptop 13 vs MacBook Pro 14. Specs, battery life, repairability, and whether the tradeoffs are worth it to stop funding a company whose CEO kisses authoritarian rings.

I hope it's only a temporary glitch, but suddenly the UBS home banking login page does not seem to work on Firefox anymore (it works with Chrome). This also happens with a fresh Firefox install (no addons, mods, anything).
If this is true, then this means that from now on, the largest Swiss bank only allows customers to use their home banking with either their proprietary app (which of course requires Google Play Protection and does not work on Graphene OS), or with a hardware token plus a US-megacorp controlled browser (Chrome, Edge, Safari).

In my rant about US products and US services and as part of my boycott of these services due to the new fascism in the US under Trump, I mistakenly referred to them as American or an American project – which, according to a clarification from the GrapheneOS team, is absolute nonsense! I would like to thank GrapheneOS for clearing up my misconception!
It was absolutely not my intention to spread false information or defame anyone for their great work – many years ago, when I first started working with CopperheadOS and then GrapheneOS, I read somewhere that Mr. Micay and the project were from the US. Unfortunately, after all these years, I can no longer trace this source.
So there was no malicious intent behind this claim, it was simply the passing on of false information in good faith. I would like to apologize once again to everyone affected!
But thankfully, other users were better informed than I was and also brought this to my attention.

So far, I’m really enjoying the iPadOS 26 update. It’s amazing to see Apple invest in making the iPad feel more capable while still retaining a lot of the simplicity that made the platform appealing in the first place.
I think I’m still in the getting used to it phase, and I feel excited to see what I’ll uncover after a few more weeks of use.

Apple and Google recently announced their AI partnership, and we could get our first real look at the Gemini-powered Siri assistant as soon as February. @Techcrunch has more:
This afternoon, I took advantage of the rain to tidy up and clean my desk, as well as part of the cabinet to my right, which houses the switch and the Raspberry Pi 4 (powered by FreeBSD) that I use for various services.
I came across my old laptop again: a 2019 16" MacBook Pro, the last Intel model. I think it was one of the worst devices I’ve ever owned: sluggish, fans always loud, and the case 'polished' down quickly just from my hands. I used it for about a year, then passed it to my wife when I got the M1 Pro MBP - which I’m still using - in early 2022. By comparison, the Apple Silicon model feels brand new, even after four years of fairly intense use.
My wife had to stop using the 'old' one because the battery, despite having very few charge cycles, is practically dead. It doesn’t hold a charge, but that wouldn’t even be the biggest issue. The real trouble is that without a functional battery, it has become incredibly slow, with the fans constantly blasting, making it unusable. I tried turning it on again, but it even struggles to launch the macOS installer. I’m stuck: replacing the battery would cost 289 euros (from what I’ve read, the entire top case needs to be replaced), but I hate to leave it like this, as the hardware and screen still have a lot to offer.
I’ve thought about selling it as-is, but I think it would be difficult - an inexperienced buyer wouldn't understand that the slowness is caused specifically by the battery issue.
Any advice?

Когда ты забываешь зарядить модные умные часы от #apple #samsung (и прочее на #wearos) то вечером они уже выключенные болтаются у тебя на руке.
Когда ты забываешь зарядить часы на нормальной (облегчённой) ОС, то вечером ты ещё делаешь пробежку, и остаётся ещё 13%.
Берите часы на облегчённой ОС от #Huawei, #Honor, #Xiaomi, #Amazfit, #Haylou и прочих. Вряд ли вам понадобятся приложения на часах, а вот нормальная автономность точно лишней не будет.

»KI-Modelle lassen sich laut Apple-Forschern schlechter steuern als angenommen:
Ein neues theoretisches Framework legt nahe, dass die Kontrollierbarkeit von Sprachmodellen und Bildgeneratoren überraschend fragil ist. Die Steuerbarkeit hängt stark von der jeweiligen Aufgabe und dem verwendeten Modell ab.«
Ich lass das mal hier so stehen, evt. bin ich gegenüber der KI zu überkritisch.

Considering that under Trump, the US is turning into a fascist terror state where opponents of the orange leader are simply shot dead on the street by his private Gestapo, ICE, or persecuted by his terror justice system, I am considering completely disposing of all US hardware and services that I still use to some extent.
In addition to Linux and Pixel with GrapheneOS, I unfortunately still use a few Apple devices such as MacBook Air, iPhone, Watch, and iPad Mini, and of course I also have a Google and Amazon account for some services. And it is precisely these that now need to be carefully deleted or replaced.
This includes the Pixel with GrapheneOS, both of which come from the US, and there's no telling what else the GrapheneOS team will be forced to do by this criminal government. Under fascism, there is no freedom, no privacy!
In the end, all that's left is an old dumb phone from Nokia. Apple, Amazon, and Google must go completely, and they can be replaced. It's purely for convenience that I haven't completely eliminated them yet. The planned Framework laptop is also canceled. Fedora/RHEL must be replaced by European Linux solutions. Signal, as a US service, also falls under the Cloud Act and is no longer acceptable.
I have a lot of planning and work ahead of me now...

PSA: Safety for Microsoft Users (Serious) [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
Just an FYI for those who don't know... Microsoft has been sharing your encryption keys with the FBI if they ask for them. Obvs this is a huge violation of trust, dangerous for the groups Trump's rogue state is targeting, and just terrifying all around.
"But I don't do anything wrong."
If you're not white, male, conservative, christian, and a sociopath then your existence is wrong to them. The FBI, most agencies are compromised by fascists so don't expect them to be acting in any reasonable way.
If you're going to use Microsoft, like... I dunno. Don't put anything that can be used to profile you in your system, at least until you make sure you're not saving your encryption to their servers.
If you want to move maybe some Apple or Linux ppl can help. Not sure if Apple is safe either tho.

With the US acting more and more like a rogue state, it's time to impose your own personal sanctions.
Bite the bullet. Stop using Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Google, Meta and ChatGPT - where you can. Hit them where it hurts and burst that AI bubble.
Most of the barriers come down to inconvenience.

(/me shakes fist at Apple)
I finally figured out why windows get randomly resized when I drag them around in macOS. It started about a year ago and first I thought it's a bug in Firefox or macOS, but the problem persisted.
Today I finally found the "Drag Windows to menu bar to fill screen" option (default on) in System Settings.
I wonder when they sneaked this in and who asked for this "feature".

If this goes through, there won't be much privacy on Apple devices.
The Information (paywalled) report also notes that "it was Federighi who was behind the push to use a third-party model instead of one developed in-house. It's Federighi's belief that Apple's own models can't compete with those from Google, hence the deal."
As for privacy, the report notes that "Apple is in discussions with Google about using its cloud infrastructure for AI features."
"If the plans go ahead, future Siri features may be powered by Google's AI chips inside its data centers."

Warning: kissing fascist ass may result in liquid glass.
So my phone tricked me into updating to iOS 26 (nice one, asshats). And wow: it really is a case study in form over function. Gratuitous, meaningless aesthetics and motion. Decoration, not design. “Look what I can do!”
Oh well, if it gets me using my phone less, that’s a good thing, I guess.
But the next time you hear someone from Apple talking about design, please feel free to laugh in their damn faces. What a sad joke they’ve become.

Nah, fuck it, turned everything back on again. Why should I fix your damn broken interface and fool myself into thinking this piece of shit is anything but? Going to experience iOS 26 in all its enshittified glory. Will make it easier to hate this phone and move onto something more ethical once it finally croaks.
Apple is likely one release cycle away from going full Microsoft/Google anyway.
