There is no clipboard manager on my office PeeCee… at least, nothing that I could install anyway if such a thing exists on Windozzzz. 😒

I like this iOS 26 Home Screen customization options for my iPhone when going to bed.

Flighty is increasing by 33% their yearly subscription fees. This is… massive. I recognize the constant improvements to this app but boy, that makes me pause and reconsider.

I have to say that this year’s Apple OS releases are the most unfinished, unpolished, uneven and buggy .0 releases in a long, long time. It’s the only unifying thing across the board, not Liquid Glass. It will take many more releases for Apple to bring some order to this mess. Every day, I discover a new issue.

Don’t tell me, Apple, Liquid Glass is all about the content. It’s not. With Liquid Glass, UI elements jump into your face! They are distracting. It doesn’t take a master degree in design to understand and experience that. It’s obvious. Let’s play the video, ladies & gentlemen.

Watch out, Synology, you’ve got some serious competition. I like what Ubiquity is doing these days, not only in the networking equipment space but in other devices, too. Who knows, I might replace my Synology NAS with one of these.

While read later services are enticing and convenient, I often forget about the saved content and the service itself. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just tried Apple Live Translation with my wife. She was purposely talking in English while I was speaking French with my AirPods Pro 2. This is so seemless, powerful and cool.

I’ve been installing and applying app updates en masse for a few days. There is a clear trend. Big corporations like Medium, OpenAI, LinkedIn, Reddit, etc. release notes that are like “We’ve been hard at work updating our app so you get a better experience, blah blah blah”. At the same time, indie devs will write, “We’re happy to introduce support for Apple’s latest innovations like Liquid Glass, transparent widgets and on-device Apple Fondational Model for a richer experience.” See the difference?

How long before iOS 26.1 beta 1? Asking for a friend.
