Does nobody care that iPadOS lost its old Split View workflow? I would never consider another iPad until it's brought back. Their multitasking story is a total mess at the moment. …

This is what I'm most interested in. My only hope at the moment is for Apple to revive the iPhone mini -- even if they only refresh it every 3-5 years! I'm so bummed I'll be 'force…

I love Libby. It's introduced me to so many titles by browsing what's currently available that I otherwise would've skipped over. The 21 day loan period gives me just enough of a g…

More and more I'm convinced that buying my Honda Accord 11 years ago was one of my better life decisions so as not to have to deal with the BS that is the modern automobile. I do w…

Nailed it. It's honestly criminal and something I consider UX terrorism the way macOS lacks this basic functionality when even something like ChromeOS ships these by default. Wonde…

Glad to know I'm not the only madman using a slew of text files to dump their thoughts into. My kids will surely think I was a crazy person if they ever stumble on them after I pas…

I admire the Beeper team’s effort, but this post playing the victim card is deranged. Beeper was trying to turn a profit piggy-backing on Apple’s servers and Apple curbing access i…

Cool idea, but it could use some work. For example, Italian-Spanish (Masculine) should yield 'Matteo' or 'Mateo' but seemingly doesn't because of a 't' despite being essentially th…

This will absolutely be a commercial failure. I don't harbor any ill will to anybody in the company, and I wish them the best, but a voice interface in public is a complete non-sta…

You can switch to a following-only view, but it resets whenever the app is re-launched, which is a real scummy pattern. Agree on the need for a proper website that isn’t read-only.…

My wife and I will still chuckle over that Onion video to this day. I had sent it to her back in the day just to share a laugh, but due to its insanely high production value she bo…

Ha, I had completely forgotten this was a thing I used to do. Thanks for bringing back good memories of scrolling through .txt files. It might sound tedious to those who never trie…

Chex Quest was my first FPS and only many years later did I learn about Doom. It all clicked and my gratitude for whoever at General Mills was responsible for the title flowed imme…

The same thought crossed my mind when I noticed how useless Google had become after Rexxit, so I don’t think it’s insane. It’s a small fortune for Google, but Reddit is the de fact…

Building your business on the back of somebody else's API is always gonna be a risky endeavor. Luckily, Apollo is a great client with loyal users, so hopefully Christian can spin o…

The 2024 ID.4 will likely have an option for their new APP550 motor which will produce 282 hp and a maximum torque of 406 lb-ft. This should help bring it in line with the Y, but p…

I'm convinced Mazda could have taken over the world with an electric CX-5. What a missed opportunity. Hopefully it's not too late for them as I think it's one of the nicer, and mor…

Same here. Does what I need it to do, but I've noticed that it only syncs one-way with NetNewsWire (pulls feeds in, but won't update read status), unfortunately. It's still good en…

So they only support Apple Pencil Gen 1, but remove the Lightning port which it requires for charging, so they sell you a dongle, but the environment is important to Apple. Okay. W…

I noticed today I can't find the Chrome flag (v105) to enable its reader mode. It's like they just nuked it since it made articles actually readable. It's not a huge deal, but I li…
