I highly recommend a MagSafe-compatible case if you’re thinking of getting into the ecosystem. Even a thin TPU case is enough to keep your phone from docking correctly, if at all.

In case anyone else misinterpreted the headline, Apple is not shelving the Vision Pro as a product line—just the current Gen 1 headset.

Apple has abruptly reduced production of the Vision Pro headset and could stop making the current version of the device completely by the end of 2024, The Information reports.

Citing multiple people "directly involved" in making components for the headset, the report says that the scaling back of production began in the early summer. This indicates that Apple now has a sufficient number of Vision Pro units in its inventory to meet demand for the device's remaining lifespan through to next year.

*Edited for emphasis.

Ok waste paper, mhmm, coffee, yep, microwave, good thinking—

FORM A UNION

Woah, woah calm down Satan.

I’ve never even thought to access BlueSky via anything but the ‘following’ tab. Wow!

The irony isn’t lost on me!

Most likely an unpopular opinion, but I took this opportunity to try something new and made the switch to macOS at home as my daily device. If I do end up gaming, I’ll probably just get myself a Steam Deck.

tl;dr maybe don’t sleep where you print

Does this mean that 3D printing causes cancer? No, not by a long shot. But, it’s clear that under lab conditions, exposure to either PLA or ABS particulates seems to be related to some of the cell changes associated with carcinogenesis.

You made this? I made this.

My wife’s 12.9 iPad Pro (whichever model when they switched over to flat edges) seemingly bent in her case. We’re generally very good with tech and have never put the iPad in a position that it could have gotten bent.

So much for the goodwill of fediverse integration.

I certainly appreciate the innovation in an era of reiteration.

Now that 4.3 is done, our focus for the next release will be on implementing the highly requested features of quote posts, as well as the ability for server operators to subscribe to managed blocklists, which along with our new initiative of pluggable fediverse discovery providers should make running small and medium-sized fediverse servers much more viable; and with Ghost entering the fediverse, further improving how long-form content from other fediverse platforms is displayed within Mastodon.

Personally, I’m looking forward to the quote posts. Hopefully it’ll make discussions easier to read.

My friends just got back yesterday after their flight got cancelled last week. They said the bombing was so close to the airport they assumed their flights would be cancelled again.

In my situation I work from home, so having a battery at 100% capacity is pretty meaningless. The 80% capacity limit also prevents my phone from burning up on the wireless charger, so that’s another plus.

It’s been a year now and I'm still at 100% battery health. Honestly, with my level of usage I think I could stretch this device for 5-6 years.

Same story for me. I charge exclusively via MagSafe (except in the car for CarPlay), and with the 80% limit on the 15 Pro I’m back to full power pretty quickly.

Talk about convoluted.

The capacity limit of the system is not the objective of the pilot project.

Russ (Retro Game Corps) was so confident with his CEMU video he didn’t think he’d be a target despite everyone in the comments saying otherwise.

[…] so why were only Apple phones affected?

The answer, it seems, is because Apple recently defected from traditional quartz-based clocks in its phones in favor of clocks that are also made of MEMS silicon. Given that clocks are the most critical device in any computer and are necessary to make the CPU function, their disruption with helium atoms is enough to crash the device. 

In this case, the leaking helium from the MRI machine infiltrated the iPhones like a “tiny grain of sand” and caused the MEMS clocks to go haywire.

I used the default for about a year before switching it up to ‘Planetary’.

Off topic, but I’d love to get a Firefox-style app icon, but with a Lemming instead of a fox. Honestly, it’d just be a fat blob with teeth and that’d be ok lol
