Interesting case on what something that may seem to intuitively make sense on the surface (we would think glass bottles would be better than plastic, but guess not) does not actually match up with reality—and to be careful on what we are so certain must be true simply based on intuition.

I don't think the Gen Alpha writing style is that different from millenials, but I do know that for me my writing shifts more towards Gen Z when just trying to write quickly.
Also, hot take, but cursive sucks. I was taught it in school and never used it outside of those classes. It's awful to read and honestly inefficient.

Comment on Apple introduces iOS 26 with Liquid Glass redesign in ~tech
ShinRamyun Link ParentIt looks absolutely fucking awful. Every announcement coming out of Apple nowadays makes me wonder if it's even worth staying in their "ecosystem" anymore.It looks absolutely fucking awful.

I feel the more I age, the more life experience I have, the harder the overall story hits and I notice things I never did before.

While I would say it's not graphically impressive, the way the animals are anthropomorphized just enough to make a human connection with the viewer, while still retaining all the distinct traits that we think of that can define their species, was a fucking masterclass in storytelling.
I was not expecting to fall in love with that movie as much as I did.
Kojima recommendations coming clutch once again.

Trying to get my Podcast listening off of Spotify because I just hate their player and UX lately. Also, no ability to add feeds by RSS link.
My daily drivers I spend most of my time on are my iPhone and Macbook Pro. After that, maybe I would listen on my iPad, or my PC that is running both Linux and Windows.

Would I prefer all of these tools to be open source? Probably. Those do still exist though and I fear that people acting out against tools held by corporate interests are still going to hurt smaller and open source models as well.
