rare swedish politics post: a cap on benefits is bad and sweden shouldn't follow the uk's lead on that, nor should it try to make out-of-work benefits harder to get. the rhetoric is about motivating people to work, but it's bad for people who work: it pushes down wages!

wait what. https://www.apple.com/apple-vision-pro/ says “Use AR to view Apple Vision Pro. Open this page using Safari on your iPhone or iPad.” at the bottom when I'm not using Safari on my iPhone… but when I do, it's just, missing? there's no button for it anywhere??? anyone else get this?

I am trying to do a backup of my iPhone to my MacBook. it's around 90GB of data. there is not enough space on my MacBook's SSD, so I've made it go to an external, USB3 hard drive instead. copying the data to the PC took several hours, but the final step seems to take forever…

just the other week, I was thinking it'd be great to have a language that's like a simplified Rust, with borrow checking in the easier cases, falling back to reference counting or GC for all the harder ones. it seems Swift might get there!

I want to play 1080p games at 60fps in sRGB colour gamut with a mouse and keyboard……… and I'm not kidding!!!

DASHBOARD IS BACK BABY

(I was busy playing card games rather than watching the Apple Event live so this reaction is delayed)
