  • Future MacBook Pro screens may kill off the bezel completely

    No bezels is a terrific idea.  MacBook screens simply aren’t fragile enough yet.

  • Florida wants Apple & Google to label apps made outside US

    Nation of origin is already required for physical products in the US.  I don’t see this as any different in scope or effect.  I use the current requirement to actively avoid buying food sourced from China (I value my health), and think it would be useful for software as well.

    One of the last things I’d ever do is to confirm my identity to the Zuck.

  • Meross Smart LED Lightbulb review: Modernize any light socket in your home

    I don't recommend these for use in a bedroom.  If the power goes out, when it comes back on the lights will turn on, regardless of their previous state.  This can result in some rude awakenings if the power goes out and comes back on in the middle of the night.

    In the short term Musk will use the expertise of his extensive team to iron out the kinks, flush out the excess, learn from initial mistakes and make Twitter better then ever.
    My money’s on him long term.
    Absolutely. He’s not an idiot, by a long shot. This will go how these things always go. There’s a lot of buzz right now, and everybody is paying attention. Companies are trying to virtue signal like crazy right now.

    Twitter will be up and running functionally in no time. People will forget. And all the advertisers will return.

    All the keyboard CEO’s who know better than Elon will move on to something else.

    And all the morons who are going to “boycott” any business or brand advertising on Twitter will be patronizing all of them without a thought.
    No, he's not an idiot.  He has a very high IQ, for sure.  His problem is his EQ (emotional quotient).  It seems to be in the low single digits, thanks to his narcissism and sociopathy.  He does well when working with things, and horribly when working with people.  Twitter is all about people, so he's floundering.
