@bigzaphod Woot. These next 10-15 episodes are my favorite. Leaving the baseball on his desk was a total GOAT move. I loved that so so much.

@bigzaphod Sons and Daughters, Behind the Lines, Favor the Bold, Sacrifice of Angels, and You Are Cordially Invited might as well be one long awesome DS9 episode. This stretch is amazing.

This has been said 1,000,000 times by everyone but I'll say it again.

If episodes of "Ripley" (Netflix) had been released on a weekly schedule rather than all episodes dumped at once, I think it would have made much more of a cultural impact on the landscape.

(It's so good.)

Really interesting trying out the new iPad Pro’s in an Apple Store yesterday. Particularly:

Hover:
My older Pro doesn't have this - really useful to see brush size and shape!

Barrel Roll:
Works really well. When you compare it to using a pen tablet on the Mac (using arrow keys to rotate a brush), it’s a natural drawing experience.

Squeeze & Haptics:
Unlike double tap (which I ended up turning off) this worked fantastically. Made drawing flow much easier having access to tools like that

@jonhicks squeeze support and haptic support are coming to Linea. We’re working on it now. I too, had to turn off double tap support on the pencil because I kept activating it simply by reg gripping the pencil in my hand it was utterly useless. And frustrating. Squeezing is completely different and very very awesome.

I had an excellent moment today.

Our work Pride team had a desk near the canteen with people sitting there. I awkwardly walked by and when one guy saw my lanyard he waved at me so I went over.

We talked Star Wars for about 15mins (got my SW hoody on).

For someone to beckon me over and then have a super positive interaction based on nothing but joy... That was pretty ace.

used images from to train its “ethical” . Now, it’s using Ansel Adams’ name and artistic style to in its tools. Adobe’s position against using unlicensed works to train LLMs was never one of principle. Rather, it already had access to copyrighted works, so “ethical” was a means to exclude competition while concurrently violating the principle anyway.

Down the YouTube rabbit hole of vintage board game commercials and came across one of my favorites - Perfection. This game was designed to give kids and their parents a nervous breakdown. We loved it so much! 😂

A family tries to place plastic shapes inside a plastic board with corresponding spaces before the timer expires.

I don’t condone the destruction of art and in the end acts like this don’t really help the cause. That said this painting by Monet won’t matter in the least by mid-century. None of man’s creations will if we stay the current course. That’s the entire point of these protests - None of this will matter because our society, our entire civilization will be in ruins. Let that thought sink in.

If a masterpiece survives the apocalypse and no one is alive to appreciate it, does it matter?

gedeonm,
@gedeonm@mastodon.social avatar

@denis if an all powerful being came down from this guy and gave me a personal choice that I could either destroy all of the art in the world or save our civilization from climate disaster I would choose the destruction of artwork in a second. Things and culture can be replaced. People cannot.

gedeonm,
@gedeonm@mastodon.social avatar

@denis I don’t disagree. These people are frustrated and trying to do something dramatic to wake people up because nothing else has worked. At the very least they are getting people to talk about climate change and in the end that’s a good thing. The ends don’t justify the means but pretty soon destroying paintings is not going to matter. That’s my whole point.

One of my very first jobs as a kid was an operator for Bell. Two of my aunts were operators for over 20 years and helped me get the job. I have so many stories to tell about my time there. I often worked the night shift 10pm-7am and boy, the planets aligned at night for some wacky, intense calls from people. Had a ton of fun, saved some people’s lives (there was no 911 then) and even talked to quite a few celebrities. Fun job! https://worldkey.io/@LibrarianRA/112537947724277943

Is anyone getting any haptic feedback with the new Apple Pencil Pro and iPad? I have haptics turned on in system settings, but I don’t feel them except one squeezing the pencil. We’re trying to implement haptic feedback in Linea Sketch but I can’t test properly because there’s no haptic feedback anywhere.

gedeonm,
@gedeonm@mastodon.social avatar

@chrisdejabet Yep okay, I feel it on the long tap on an icon. Good to know the pencil isn’t defective. cc @whattherestimefor

@jonasclindgren yup, I feel it in Mail when I long tap on mail in the list too. Thank you.

Still kind of upset Tears for Fears’ Songs From The Big Chair wasn’t even included on Apple’s Top 100 Albums list. It’s one of the greatest albums of all time if not, the entire 80s.

Texted my sister to see how her neighbourhood was reacting to the verdict. She has no idea because she's been in the ER since last night - pneumonia. And I guarantee she's got long covid (based on her changed history the last 4 years).
I fucking hate everything right now.

@mcoutts81 trying to implement haptic feedback on the new pencil in Linea and not having any luck. Can you attempt to draw and then undo in Apple Freeform and let me know if you feel a haptic feedback with your pencil? I do not. cc @whattherestimefor
