Slowly getting into a rhythm to start the day with doing a print each morning, each time still tweaking either negatives, concentrations and/or durations of different processing stages to adjust tones/hues... A new adventure with some back and forth each time!
This print is of Langkofel / Sassolungo, one of my favourite mountain massifs, just such interesting features and so many dear memories, here seen from the east (around half and hour before sunset)...
Thanks to everyone who recommended Wipr. Bought it and installed it on the iPhone.
On the mac I am also trying uBlock Origin Lite.

Ein Re-Design zum 17 in Sachen Rückseite wäre mir lieber. Den neuen Kamera-Hügel finde ich ja okay, aber das Quadrat darunter eher mäh https://www.mobiflip.de/apple-das-iphone-18-pro-bekommt-ein-redesign-auf-der-front/
I wanted to change the background on an iPhone to match a new cover, and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to pick one of the built-in options without having to set up all widgets all over again. Apple explicitly hints that I should hold down on the locked screen, but that only seems to let me access everything BUT the background.
If Apple can do FaceID on the iPhone and TouchID on a Magic Keyboard attached to a Mac, why can’t they do FaceID with a Studio Display camera attached to a Mac?
It’s a mystery…

Apple says iPhone and iPad on iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 have become the first consumer devices NATO approved for use up to the "restricted" level of classified data (Elyse Betters Picaro/ZDNET)

I regularly drag my feet on some upgrades, but this is getting a bit ridiculous. I'm using an iPhone 13 Mini because my tiny hands can't hold the giant phablets. And iOS 18.7.2, because I hate the AI junk crammed into everything and don't want nauseating translucent UI effects. But there's a lot of security bugs lately that might demand something to change. Uggghh.
I wish portable pocket computers were less capable and had more battery life.
