ZOMG PATCH TUESDAY! As today's post explains, it's not just Microsoft increasing the volume (and pacing) of patch releases lately as a result of code audits reportedly from Anthropic's much-hyped Glasswing AI offering. Other software giants are getting in on the act now!

@macrumors I want a new feature that lets me delete text messages without them randomly undeleting themselves less than twenty-four hours later on random devices. That would be a killer feature! #Apple

@macrumors In the U. S. the only weather source I need and use is the NOAA NWS website. There's no reason to pay for an app that requires payment, or God forbid a subscription, for free weather and climate data and forecasts. I've yet to see an app worth its price (with the exception of Wx, which uses NOAA NWS data). #Apple

@macrumors Software subscriptions are already being abused by developers and this will be abused too. Ban software subscriptions. #Apple

@verge 🤞I can’t express how hopeful I am for this to be the first step away from the era of “services.” Cook made it lucrative, but it’s abandon the original #apple difference of being user centered. So much has been lost / unrealized to extract every possible dollar from all parts of the ecosystem.

Someone at #Apple sat at their keyboard and wrote this error message for #Xcode.

Maybe replacing devs with an AI tool is a step forward in some cases.

I’m not even starting to talk about the fact that the alert looks like it is disabled/in the background but is not.

Another reason to hate #Apple We're seeing more 2018+ MacBook Pro/Air donations — but Apple's T2 chip means even after iCloud sign-out and reset, the firmware stays locked to the original account.

Without donor contact, these machines are useless. :(

I've upcycled ~1,000 older Macs, but T2 era machines will end that. It's controlling, creates e-waste, and will only get worse. #righttorepair matters — Apple couldn't care less.
