As expected, WWDC focused heavily on AI, with no major iOS or iPadOS features beyond performance tuning.
Truly helpful AI must be centered on our users’ needs, deeply integrated into the products they rely on every day, grounded in personal context, and built with privacy at every step. That is our vision for Apple Intelligence.
Can’t wait to test Siri AI & Apple Intelligence on my M1 Mac Mini, M1 iPad Pro, and M5 MacBook Air. The hurdle? It needs 7 GB of local storage. My 256 GB Mac Mini might be in for a tight fit! Public beta drops in July-I’ll be trying it on my M1 devices first.
It’s incredible how far we can go to observe what they look like. The universe offers so much to explore. Additionally, it’s hard to believe we’re the only ones out there.
Yikes!
The United States confirmed a case of New World screwworm in Texas, marking the first detection in the state in decades and raising concerns for the livestock industry reut.rs
Great, but how can it compete w/ Chrome? Chrome can do w/ setting and extensions.
I hope this isn’t true—it would be an eyesore! I believe it shouldn’t be on the White House lawn, but perhaps somewhere like the Mall. What is he thinking?! What are your thoughts on the possibility of a permanent setup? 🙄🙄🙄
Trump suggests UFC arena outside White House could be permanent
Posted a titled blog post to Bluesky via Micro.blog’s Standard.site integration — looks sharp! The ‘View Publication’ pill is a nice touch. One quirk: the post title appears twice — once in the body text, again in the card. Hopefully that gets ironed out soon. What do you think of this?

I love trying out new gadgets when they drop, but they tend to have a short shelf life — ending up tucked away somewhere, forgotten. Same goes for apps and websites. I used to sign up for every new thing that caught my eye, explore it for a bit, then move on to the next shiny object. I had accounts everywhere.
Now I only buy what I know I’ll actually use. I stopped buying new gadgets three years ago after a layoff, and my approach to apps has mellowed out too. I still dabble in new stuff once in a while, but nothing like the signing-up frenzy of my past.
It’s embarrassing that the US hasn’t kept pace with the shift to electric vehicles, which are the future and should be affordable. Not only that, but trains are improving in Europe & China with better tech, yet we’re falling behind. 🙄
EVs are getting more affordable worldwide — except in the U.S.
TIL that DC is an acronym for “Detective Comics.” Now, the times I don’t need to say DC Comics because it’s already implied in DC, right? But why do we still say DC Comics? Hmm. I find it interesting…what do you think?
“…did you know that “DC” stands for “Detective Comics,” which means that “DC Comics” is redundant?”
