If Apple’s ‘Solarium UI’ is the UI unification of all Apple platforms, which platform will give up the most of its personality the most? 👀🤔
-
Will Apple’s Solarium UI refresh make us forget about Apple Intelligence and Siri’s lackluster performance or App Store litigation or developers mounting disdain for Apple or Tim Cook questionable leadership in the age of AI?

Catching up recent Micro.blog updates and I really like the new AI-generated categories feature. Coupled with filters, it’s a great way to organize posts not only for me but for the readers. It’s tempting to add many categories, but it could make my blog homepage a little bit crowded. 😅

I think we over estimate Jony Ive design capabilities in general if you consider that design is also how it works. We have plenty of examples with bad design choices after Jobs death. Ports removal in a pro laptop, butterfly keyboard are just of them.

I’m getting ready to pack my things and offload 559 photos from my Nikon Zf to my MacBook Air for in-flight processing with Photomator (8 hours, mind you). It should be fun to relive my just-completed trip.

Last day. Current stop. 🥲

Reading a lunch menu in Spanish with Apple Translate. First experience with live translation. Pretty cool and useful. I know this has been available on the other platform for a long time but using in a real situation is handy. No need for an English menu.

Currently in Ibiza for three days which will conclude my two-week vacations. Found this Marshall speaker upon entering the room of our hotel. Great looking design. It goes along the design lines of the hotel. Very good sound. Planning to get one of these after coming back home: a Marshall Acton III Bluetooth speaker, a more recent and improved design for controls.

Who’s rooting for adding or integrating Apple Intelligence models into their apps? Apple Intelligence is not well regarded, not many is going to rush to add this to their apps after WWDC2025.

Location check in 🗺 — The VIP lounge of the Barcelona Airport is the best that I’ve ever seen. So much space, quiet, lots of food with variety. Impressive.

Couldn’t make the city walk I had hoped for but managed to get that one done. Not bad. I always liked symmetry that can be found in cathedrals.

Travel update: I’m currently in Valencia, Spain, still figuring out if we will go off the ship today for a walk in a city that we already visited back in 2017. One idea would be to revisit some places but with this idea of trying different photo takes with more modern photo gear (was using an iPhone 7, Nikon D80 back then if I remember correctly).

Currently in Catalina, Sicile. Rainy day. Brought my camera with me but got no inspiration to take photos, except that one which is in line with the current weather.

It’s 2025 and I’m still fascinated by the lack of efficiency of barcode or QRcode reading equipments at airports or train stations which greatly reduce the flow of people trying to catch their flight or train.
-
I love those courtyards which are everywhere in Europe, especially in bigger and denser cities like Rome. Always something interesting or intriguing to see and catch.

Back on the train after a day in Pompeii, Italy 🇮🇹 . We can see the Vesuvius volcano in the backdrop. What a beautiful and fascinating place. If you go there, spend the whole day. Don’t miss a pizza at the Pizzeria de la gare. 😋
-
Finally made it to Rome Italy 🇮🇹 . The first day is always the hardest one, thanks to the jet lag 😵😵💫🥱. But I always try to keep my photography eye on alert.

I simply don’t understand the value proposition of the rumoured Apple homeOS. I mean, most people got a smartphone in their hands which is always connected. If you happen to have HomeKit devices in your home, everything is close at hand with the Home app. We don’t need a specialized tablet to change lights and look at the doorbell camera, right? Are we?

Last day of work before a two-weeks vacation where I’ll spend some time visiting Rome, Pompeii, Ibiza, Valencia, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Taormina, Valletta and Palma; places that I’m eagerly waiting to visit! 😀

Apparently, Microsoft released updated Surface devices. Not much buzz about them, even with this questionable CoPilot+ moniker and branding. I don’t see them a lot in my professional life either.
