Last weekend, Trump played golf at another of his South Florida properties a day after witnessing the dignified transfer for six U.S. soldiers killed in the Iran war. That death toll rosethis past week.
Trump is increasingly complaining about mediacoverage o…

Oh did the whole dogwood bloom sometime in the last day without me noticing? This is looking up at the night sky lit by an automatic floodlight some distance away.

A TV (470MHz-790MHz) filter arrived today to try to cope with the temporary traffic light problems I mentioned the other day; they took the traffic lights away yesterday. Oh well, useful to have in the box for next time there's a concert on.

Warning: kissing fascist ass may result in liquid glass.
So my phone tricked me into updating to iOS 26 (nice one, asshats). And wow: it really is a case study in form over function. Gratuitous, meaningless aesthetics and motion. Decoration, not design. “Look what I can do!”
Oh well, if it gets me using my phone less, that’s a good thing, I guess.
But the next time you hear someone from Apple talking about design, please feel free to laugh in their damn faces. What a sad j…

John Paulson, a hedge fund billionaire and one of Donald Trump’s earliest Wall Street backers,

told the union it planned to offshore mos…
