    Oh, would you get this?

    "Give me half a dozen of the Vulcan D-tens and set my friend up with the whole schmear. You know, clubs, bags, shoes, gloves, shirt, pants. Hey, orange balls! I'll have a box of those and give me a box of those naked-lady tees, gimme two of those, gimme six of those..."

    Yeah, well that slide looks good on YOU though!

    Trump is going to lose in an absolute landslide. Both candidates are senile. Is this the best as a country we can do? Sad…
    One can only hope that he loses in a landslide...the country is very very divided right now. If there's one thing Trump is really good at it's dividing people and being an excellent bullshitter. He's created a societal civil war in our country and it's sad. Everything is us versus them and you're either with me or against me. The country will not be well at all if he wins the election and is in office for another 4yrs. He doesn't know WTH he's doing. He doesn't know how to deal with actual issues. This is why he completely flopped the pandemic. Even people that worked with him says he's really stupid and just doesn't have a clue. I will gladly take 4 more years of President Biden. After Biden I think we'll have some pretty decent candidates. 
    He is actually a horrible bullshitter. It is just his supporters are very easy marks. It is like taking candy from a baby so you can’t expect him not to take advantage of them.
    This is why I mean...he can bullshit to his fan base and they'll believe anything he says, even if it's not true and has no intention at all in doing it. Or, just doesn't know how to do it. 
    As Trump said "I love the poorly educated".

  • New Settings in iOS 18 will take some getting used to

    So, if I want to modify a particular setting for any app that relates to that setting, I now have to go through a list of every app to turn that setting ON or OFF?  Rather than go to the setting and see what's using it ?  Like, say Camera or Microphone access?  

    How the "Apps" box organizes app settings is going to be key. Does it just alphabetize the Apps, or the setting functions?
    Will Siri be able to produce a list of "every app requesting access to my Photos library" ?

  • Elon Musk's latest anti-Apple tirade is about a ChatGPT feature that doesn't exist

    I'm surprised Musk isn't on 'Truth Social' by now.

  • iOS 18 & macOS 15 are going to look to the past for new wallpapers

    They should look to the past for some new iPhone sizes while they're at it...  (smaller)
