Yet another example of how poorly thought out many ideas from @Apple are nowadays, esp when Schiller is involved. Just can't seem to shake #PhilTheSchill. @_inside
So uh… Apple should really rethink the Private Cloud Compute developer access limitation. I do happen to have an app that’s had more than 2 million downloads. An app that’s been in the App Store for over 10 years. And I’m also not making any real money with it 🥲 #wwdc26

People demanding "proof" of election fraud are not understanding how crime works. I worked at Manhattan DA for over 2 years, one in Homicide. We never had video proof of the crime. We almost never had DNA. These are things that occur on CSI on TV, not in real life. And we still convicted people all the time. What we had was testimony and circumstantial evidence. Travel times, bank records, cell phone data, gate access codes. Motive, capability, benefit, time and place. Never direct proof. Of course the defendant always denied the crime, but there was enough evidence to show that one had to have occurred nonetheless. If what we have in the LA Mayoral election is a statistical anomaly that is beyond reasonable explanation with anything besides fraud, that is enough to prove a crime. This has been true since the beginning of Western Civlization.

IMO, *THIS* is *the way* communities should respond when (ostensibly) one of theirs does as was done in the case of Henry Novak. Are a few other 'communities' that should take note.

Was talking to a good buddy today, and topically meandered to “Hey, have you seen the @ShawnRyanShow with…” “No, not yet. I’m behind. But you know who I love on the show? @sarahadams.” “Oh, yeah, she’s bad ass!” “SuperBad-ass!” We both crack up. You have SUPERFANS, @SarahAdams!

I, for one, SUPPORT @BridgetPhetasy in her campaign to take over late night tv! HOWEVER, Bridget, you can NOT move into a CBS studio! Must continue to record the show, with your crew, in your home studio AS IS! (But use that delicious 💸 to bring the entire crew back together!)
I am manifesting my late night job at CBS. I will see you at 11:30 Jimmy.

It kinda shocks me that, given Trump's issues with elections, the Trump Administration hasn't spent the last 18 months working to bootstrap an open-source digital voting solution. The behavior is not what I'd expect from someone so concerned with 'rigged' elections.

In cases where fraud is suspected, courts could reverse the encryption, through process, and unlock nodes on the local election commission's private election blockchain that uses the info on the public blockchain to reveal the full chain relationship of a ballot. All auditable.

I'm puzzled as to why this not only HAS NOT happened… but isn't even a thing AT ALL. It makes no sense. And it isn't just the US Govt that could have done it… the States—there ARE 50 of them—could have bootstrapped something too. But… nope!

@RepThomasMassie Dear Congressman Thomas Massie, I want to publicly thank you for your service to this country and for consistently standing true to the values of liberty, personal responsibility, and constitutional rights. In a time when many people compromise their principles for political convenience, your willingness to remain grounded in the Constitution and defend individual freedoms has earned the respect of many Americans. Whether people agree with every position or not, it is clear that you approach public service with conviction, integrity, and a commitment to what you believe is right for the country. That kind of consistency is rare and appreciated. Thank you for your dedication, your courage to stand firm under pressure, and your continued efforts to protect the liberties that so many Americans value deeply. I hope you are able to enjoy some well-deserved time off with family and friends, recharge, and know that your work has not gone unnoticed. Wishing you the very best moving forward. Sincerely, Judi Ann

Thanks to Donald Trump, we now have two Democratic parties. With the defeat of @RepThomasMassie for being a principled fiscal conservative, the Republican Party basically exists in name only. We have two big-government political parties, each offering its own brand of socialism.

Well… we all got played. Most disappointed in @ginacarano. After the @Disney/@starwars thing, I was on her side… but, fuck that… now see how dumb it was to buy into the ‘soap opera’.

At least AT THIS MOMENT, it is looking like Apple has decided to backtrack and NOT OFFER iOS 18.7.9 for devices on iOS 18.7.8 capable of running iOS 26. Jackasses.
iOS 18.7.9 (22H355) has been released. #iOS1879

However, Apple's Security Release notes page hasn't been updated yet for iOS 18.7.9, listing what devices should be offered it. support.apple.com/en-us/1001…
