On my iPhone that has iOS 26 installed, the page says my device is on iOS 18.7

Am I missing something? That doesn’t math the way math should math.


Neato. The rich became richer.


I mean, near me there are a couple of places that sell sometimes even better quality than McDonald’s for lower prices, so McDonald’s loses the competition in the financial convenience factor.


That has been huge. I used to be able to be absolutely sure that if I picked McD’s, at least the bill would be smallest.

No longer. They’re more expensive than Culver’s sometimes!


Throughout my 20s that was about the only factor that led me to McDs - a cheap, fast meal. The 2/$3 McChicken for a lazy dinner or a McMuffin for a hangover fix was always too cheap to pass up.

Nowadays McDonald’s feels like a Seinfeld bit: _Whats the deal with fast-food, it’s not fast, and it’s not food._

I’m pretty much guaranteed to spend so much on a biscuit and coffee that I could go to the local coffee shops in town and get a coffee and breakfast sandwich for the same money and oftentimes faster, somehow.


I guess silicon valley truly makes you tone deaf.


I didn’t know that, thank you for this very useful info!


Free speech my ass. Yeah OpenAI is looking dumb, but also they’re riding a money wave at the moment. Good look trying to compete with Wikipedia, he’ll fail. You’re only saying that about solar energy to sell more of your panels, Elon.


My god, I love how they’re moving further and further away from being an open organization.

At what point will they change their name?


As a kid, I was told it was due to rats and other critters getting into the cheese.

I’d then proceed to wonder why no adults thought to throw it out, much less eat the stuff.


I somehow forgot that the Apple Pencil Pro was a real product.

At first, I thought this story was satire/fake.


It works extremely well. I have a couple of Pencil Pros (both generations), and a couple of iPads.

I haven't used the Wacoms, though, so I have no comparison points.

I find that it works almost miraculously. I'm an artist (as is my wife), and we find it's almost perfect.


Wacom EM-resonance works better in many ways.


Cool. I don't know. I have an old Wacom Bluetooth tablet, and it had a noticeable lag, but it was also quite old.

The lag -even milliseconds- can be enough to ruin the experience for an artist. The iPad/pen lag is not noticeable. That said, I think the graphics app probably has more to do with it, than the hardware.

I think "faceless" wired Wacom tablets had no noticeable lag at all (we had a couple, at my old job). I have never used one of their Cintiq tablets, though.


I’m very happy I’m seeing more open source kernels being released.

More options (and thus) competition is very healthy.
