@WarnerCrocker @mikecane @stroughtonsmith Same. My spam call volumes have decreased drastically over the past year or two. I suspect they will increase again next year.

@WarnerCrocker This will be the less is more phase of the republic.

@WarnerCrocker It seems that way, doesn’t it?

@WarnerCrocker @mikecane @stroughtonsmith Now that you mention it, weird shit seems to be the norm these days anyway, doesn’t it?

@mikecane @WarnerCrocker @stroughtonsmith Here something new and weird: iMessage is showing me a set of « frequently used » emojis that I haven’t used lately and some of which I have never used at all. It is almost as if it’s someone else’s set.

@mikecane @WarnerCrocker @stroughtonsmith I say it seems like someone else’s set because one of them is even a “guy” emoji.

@WarnerCrocker Happy Birthday! Hoping your wishes come true. We should all do a little something today that will help make that happen. I believe we can do it.

@WarnerCrocker If a future president issues an unlawful and reprehensible order, who is going to stand up for what is right knowing that he could retaliate in any way and be totally free of consequences? This is utter madness.

@WarnerCrocker @mikecane @stroughtonsmith I recently moved and had to make four new accounts and download an app just to be a resident and pay for rent and parking.

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker does yelling make it work better?

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker This whole idea that you have to have an app for everything or even an account for everything is past the point of failure.

@WarnerCrocker +1

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker I usually don’t upgrade just to get a single new feature. I don’t feel a need to be anyone’s guinea pig for the AI either. This is the craziest hype cycle I’ve ever seen.

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker good luck

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker Yes and yes. I don’t know Atlantis WP

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker I know.

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker You can use other apps. Like MS Word.

@mikecane @stroughtonsmith @WarnerCrocker I don’t know what other people use. I use MS Word, Pages and occasionally LaTeX.

@WarnerCrocker Done that recently too. Hope everything goes well with your move!

@mikecane @WarnerCrocker @stroughtonsmith who is the one tooting last week’s news?
