@WarnerCrocker Two of those would break credulity. Even in the current misinformation climate.

Doesn’t mean it won’t happen of course.

A pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell to make her STFU is almost certain.

@WarnerCrocker Happy to see a few nods for Pachinko in the long list. Hopefully it’ll help it get renewed.

Apple TV+ continues its awards season dominance as its freshman comedy series “The Studio” shattered records Tuesday, receiving 23 Emmy nominations — the most ever for a comedy series in its first season. It also tied the record set by “The Bear” last year, as the most nominated comedy series ever.

@WarnerCrocker Which will soon collapse into a black hole…

He said stretching the metaphor.

@WarnerCrocker Yikes.

@WarnerCrocker Ta. I won’t bug any of my USA based colleagues in Tesms tomorrow or over the weekend then!

Have a good one!

Is it a public holiday in the USA tomorrow?

@WarnerCrocker I'm recreating my Favourite Albums from 2025 Craft list in Notes. Looks like it will be a viable alternative. See pic.

I might also use the opportunity of my Craft sub ending at the end of July as a way to wipe the slate clean for saved article links in Craft. If I haven't read them by the second review, they won't get read.

I might also start using Safari Reading List to save articles and set a weekly review Reminder to read or delete them, so they don't accumulate over time.

I'm wondering if Apple Notes would be a viable alternative to how I currently use Craft.

There are different sizes of Infinity. I remember this blowing my mind.

“Infinity, counterintuitively, comes in many shapes and sizes. This has been known since the 1870s, when the German mathematician Georg Cantor proved that the set of real numbers (all the numbers on the number line) is larger than the set of whole numbers, even though both sets are infinite."

@WarnerCrocker I’ve listed to some episodes of two of them. 99% Invisible and Song Exploder.

@WarnerCrocker Same.

Stick on TV+ is a found family story. That just happens to be set against the world of golf tournaments.

I've no problem with the new Apple video that a lot of people seem to be gurning about 🤷🏻♂️

Guys, maybe you're not the audience.

A lot of text and audio time will be sacrificed by people pontificating about a 132-second marketing video.

I’m glad Apple are taking the time to get the new Siri to a place where it’s worth shipping. No matter how long it takes.

I wish they’d do that for everything. https://www.techradar.com/computing/artificial-intelligence/this-is-what-really-happened-with-siri-and-apple-intelligence-according-to-apple
