@lakelady I just wish it was a better experience. Phones have good screens but the video players feel unoptimized and won’t get out of the way.

@rscottjones yup! In the last year all of their product shots are AI generated.

@rscottjones www.thebruery.com/cdn/shop/… - here’s an example. And another www.thebruery.com/cdn/shop/…

@mjtsai finally going to install OpenClaw and try it out. I’ve been waiting for a 2.0 level maturity here.

@rscottjones Good point. As long as shows still let you just listen to audio, it’s fine. I’m just worried that listening to podcasts will go away and I’ll lose access to my driving audio since I only listen to podcasts while driving.

@mjtsai The issue with these is it’s like a mob situation. Apple just keeps annoying you in the 1st party apps until you pay-up to make the ad go away.

@caseyliss - I know you didn’t want another ICE car but that’s my plan with the Audi TT RS as well. MSRP new was $78,000. Paid $60,000 used with 18K miles and expect it’ll hold or grow in value as a weekend car.

@caseyliss - I’ve had two Golf Rs and each one sold for just slightly less than I paid with 50,000 miles on the ODO. They are produced in very limited numbers. I try to push GTI folks to the Golf R simply due to value retention for not much more in sticker price.

@rscottjones Does no one own headphones? This is a problem humans solved 30 years ago with the Walkman.

@lakelady Thank you! I love it.

@BonnieRue Thank you! Big Four Zero.

@oliverames I do know a guy on the inside who might be super interested in that.

@rscottjones Well, that does make it seems more realistic that mine would be torn. I’m always catching children flying through the air at my house.

@photomatt Please keep us updated on the 9/29 event. I’d like to go. I went to a lot of chaat cafe meetups and that’s when I started chatting with Om and then began blogging for him at GigaOm. I’d like to come.

@lakelady Yes! same thing happened to me. 4TB SSD in January was I think $215. double now. :O

@rscottjones Thanks! Great to be home.

@lakelady that’s the rumor but these are truly insane price updates like the AppleTV was the most expensive streaming box at $129 and it went up to even more and it’s a 4 year old device.

@lakelady Whoa! i didn’t see your replies until just now. Thanks! SO many beautiful glasses. I need to catalogue some on the blog.

@kolin BIRTHDAY GIRL!!! Happy b-day to best friend of my friend.

@gruber - I’ve been using that zoom feature for what feels like decades. I use the command key instead since it’s more natural but dozens of times an hour I use it.

@Alexbrooks It was a ton of fun going through all of those pictures. really brought back some memories.

@rscottjones Great use case. It’s cheaper than an iPad Air with keyboard and can do iPad things and more with a desktop OS. what’s not to love?

@kolin how convenient. I live my life a quarter mile at a time. 

@gruber “Hack programmers are no more likely to write software for fun than a garbage man is to collect trash on his days off.” Beautifully said :P

@lakelady You won the pre-order lottery on that one! Good job. Frankly and in retrospect, I probably should have ordered last night as well because then I’d be first in line and converted to an M5 laptop today since they were basically guaranteed to be release.
