Fantastic. The iPhone migration process guides you through a bunch of steps and when it starts transferring settings it discovers the new phone doesn’t have enough space and resets itself. Maybe make that the first thing you check? Also the old phone is a 256 GB with 145 GB free and the new one a 128 GB. That ought to work. 🤬

JFC, I stopped watching the PSG-BAR game after 60 minutes at 1:1 last night and now I see I apparently missed a banger. It ended 4:2?! 🤪

My launch experience of a new iPhone 17 Pro was that I launched it straight out of the box onto the kitchen tiles from about waist height. Thankfully didn’t hit our cat (prio #1) and only slightly nicked the top right of the frame (of course on the front where I can see it) but at least the screen stayed intact 😅

I keep hearing on podcasts about AI dudes bragging “I’m doing all this stuff with Claudex on my phone during my commute” and all I can think is “mate, why are you commuting”.

That Google email… - Combine personal data to help personalize content and ads - Develop and improve our services - Measure and improve the delivery of ads - Perform other purposes described in Google&#39;s Privacy Policy ... sell it to me harder! &gt; If Google services aren’t linked, most features in the services that can be linked will continue to work, but some features that involve sharing data across services will be limited or unavailable. Oh no! 😢

RE: https://kolektiva.social/@MikeDunnAuthor/116630892286035989 If this seems far-fetched, just look at how people accused of terrorism are being dealt with in your respective justice system and note what actions are being classified as terrorism.

Brilliant post by @rjmccall about the use of LLMs on the Swift forums: https://forums.swift.org/t/pitch-narrowed-any/86369/50 This whole thread is fascinating and a great example of the quality of discussions on there, even when the topics or modes of discussion are contentious. (At this point, I hope it doesn’t take a turn further along now 😅)

As we’re approaching summer and the days are getting warmer, it’s important to keep your cats in appropriate containers or they’ll spill on your carpet when they turn liquid. #Caturday #CatsOfMastodon

Der Spiegel reporting that Magyar is “significantly ahead” after ~40% of votes counted. My understanding is that it’s expected that his lead will grow as more votes are counted (presumably due to votes like mail-in votes that skew towards him being counted later) 🤞 https://www.spiegel.de/ausland/wahl-in-ungarn-kommt-das-system-des-autokraten-viktor-orban-nach-16-jahren-an-sein-ende-alle-news-live-a-07e91ba0-2ce3-4253-8456-702bebd6afab?sara_ref=re-so-app-sh

You can lament that there aren’t more journalists, artists, politicians on Mastodon. AI folks not so much. You can’t read a news article, listen to a podcast, look through a product description without getting slopped in the face with AI. AI doesn’t need to permeate everything.

Musste gerade an das kleine Gedicht denken, das meine Großmutter (70 damals) mal rausgehauen hat: Froh der Zeiten gedenk ich als alle Glieder gelenkig bis auf eines. Doch die Zeiten sind vorüber steif sind alle Glieder bis auf eines.

Germany is considering a general speed limit (which is kinda like US folks turning over their guns) thanks to the Trump-made Epstein Oil Crisis. If there’s any silver lining to all this BS, it’s that it’s going to enable or accelerate climate saving policies.

Any pointers for a Mac app to draw simple floor plans? What I&#39;m looking to do is making drawing floor plans for our #TTRPG a little easier. Doesn&#39;t need to be super fancy or have a lot of bells and whistles. Just a little more than the basic vector drawing programs I&#39;ve been going with so far. Could have some standard options for stairs and doors and perhaps basic furniture, for instance. Doesn&#39;t need to be free but also shouldn&#39;t be super pricey. Any...

RE: https://mastodon.social/@verge/116161550818302481 “For example, it only has a 6.1-inch 60Hz display — the smallest display of any iPhone 17 series phone” Weird way to describe the best feature!
