John Ternus Should Reverse Apple’s Slide Down the Advertising Slippery Slope
What gave Tim Cook’s privacy letter heft in 2014 wasn’t just the clarity of its plain language, but the fact that you didn’t have to take his word for it that the ads Apple showed you respected your privacy, because Apple didn’t show you ads in 2014.

RE: #Apple documentation might be wrong. Some people have confirmed that it is working.

If you are an MDM developer for #Apple platforms - or working in the non-consumer institutional space making products for edu, gov, enterprise, or healthcare at #WWDC #WWDC26 - make sure to sign up for the Business & Education QA session in the forums tomorrow on Wednesday

Another day, another annoying #Apple bug. My Apple Watch running 26.5 is unable to clear the notification stack. That's, like, not annoying at all. Not even one bit. I suppose it beats my older Apple Watch with zero apps installed and no media transferred (and a recent complete reset) which keeps saying I need to uninstall applications to install an update. Can I have a nice Linux watch wit…

And now we wait...
For how long? Nobody knows.
All three are #Safari extensions that go along with their Chrome and Firefox counterparts, and were all accepted and published quickly.

That made me check my Apple Watch model (couldn't remember). Turns out I have a series 7, bought in 2021. It's 5 years old. I had no idea, I still thought of it as "almost new"
#applewatch

Welp, looks like my Series 9 is not supported with the new #watchOS 27 update.
Less than 3 years old and #Apple kills support for it.
(They also killed off the Ultra 1st Gen...)

Was war denn das bitte für eine seltsame Keynote?

TIL that Apple Motion Dots exist and apparently help alleviate motion sickness! #Apple #ios
https://www.

Apple’s weird anti-nausea dots cured my car sickness
Apple’s Vehicle Motion Cues promise tap into your device’s accelerometer and gyroscope to reduce or, in my case, even eliminate motion sickness.

Wow. Wanted to update the OS on my old iPad Mini running 26.4.2. Pressing the update button brings up the familiar "enter your code" window, but... no keyboard. I tried force quitting Settings and a full reboot, but nope... no way to enter the code to update from this OS. Bravo, #Apple

Even as someone who has only ever used SwiftUI (not AppKit or UIKit) as my primary macOS/iOS dev toolkit, this article rings so true.
There's a whole bunch of stuff that #Apple could fix, pretty easily, and they just… haven’t. It's sad.

Upgrading my wife's iPhone SE to a 17Pro - over an hour of watching it get stuck and start over before finally discovering the BRAND NEW PHONE needed a software update before the transfer could work.
What a pathetic fail, Apple! How many customers are going to be stuck with a trip back to the store?

Today reminder that #Apple macOS Spotlight is a piece of shit.
1. I have disabled & deleted all indexes. Because they are broken.
2. Spotlight still shows some results. How? Where are they coming from?
3. I am fairly sure Spotlight auto-corrupts its own index when encountering some errors.
Last, good luck reporting this issue or getting any help on it.

nice walk down memory lane. I believe my earliest experience with MacOS was System 7.5.3 so a little past the revelation of 7.0 but still far enough back that I remember stuff like Conflict Catcher, using AppleScript for everything, the controversy of Copland and the sad reign of Gil Amelio before Jobs returned.

BTW zdaje się, że zostałem deweloperem aplikacji mobilnych na urządzenia #Apple 😅 Zarzekałem się, że nigdy nie zapłacę tej drakońskiej opłaty rocznej w wysokości 429 zł za konto deweloperskie, ale użytkownicy trochę mnie przymusili. Dzisiaj wysłałem moją pierwszą w życiu (w #AppStore) aplikację do procesu #review.

#Apple, by rising their prices, are going to sell less units. The party is over.

Das iPhone wird teurer. Nicht weil Apple mehr verdienen will — natürlich nicht. Sondern weil KI-Rechenzentren die Speicherchips wegfressen. Tim Cook nennt das „unvermeidlich". Man könnte es auch schlicht Kollateralschaden der KI-Euphorie nennen. @… #Apple

Has anyone been playing around with macOS 27 (“Golden Gate”) Public Beta 2? How is it for quirks, hitches, stability?
I accidentally upgraded* to macOS 26 last night, everything is bubbly and terrible and I hate it, and I'm willing to consider getting on the beta train this time around.
* not so sure about the “up” part

IDK if it's just #WatchOS27 Beta issues, but even in low-powered mode, the battery on my #Apple Watch Series 9 is barely lasting a day.
Checked the battery health on it, and it's down to 84% 😬

I saw an apple fall and it was nowhere near a tree. I don't know what to believe any more. 🫩

Thinned the 🍏 apples from the blushing delight today. It is doing really well. The tree is healthy and growing.
The northern spy has had a much rougher spring. It was infested with caterpillars until we safer-soaped it three times and so it just never got a good start. It is also in a more challenging location more exposed to the wind and rain. Only had a few blossoms and now no fruit. But it is still alive. I will try to nurse it through the summer and get it to winter. Hopefully next year it has a better go!
But the Blushing Delight is looking great. We should get over a dozen apples again!

Plenty of bad and annoying things about Apple and iCloud in particular, but one good experience I've always had is if I buy something on the App Store or a subscription or anything through the Apple Store, and then ask for a refund within a few hours or days, they pretty much always refund it in full within 24 hours of the request.
It makes doing things like trying out a bit of software... realizing I don't like it or it doesn't do what I want... and ‘giving it back' much easier.

Tumult macOS Plugin Announcement
#mastodon #tumult #zsh
If you're using a Mac, check out https://
github.com/unixorn/tumult.plugin.zsh
It's a collection of scripts I've accumulated over the years that lets you control some of your Mac's behavior from the CLI.
You don't need a ZSH framework to use it - the framework code just adds the repo's bin directory to your $PATH automatically. If you're not using a framework, add it's bin directory to your $PATH.

Oh now this is the best tech news I have heard for awhile…. Is a Mega-Enron situation about to happen to a bunch of the Magnificient Seven?
“Like Enron, they’re using special purpose vehicles, or off-balance sheet arrangements such as legally distinct subsidiaries, as a way to make their financial reporting look healthier than it actually is — often a glaring sign that something is deeply amiss behind the scenes.”
Also… is this why Apple effectively outsourced its AI, rather than build its own. If so, it could be the smartest tech hedge of the century.
