if you’ve been living under a rock these past few months before today’s #AppleEvent here’s two links as a quick refresher on Tim Cook’s latest fascist bootlicking asshattery:

Apple CEO Tim Cook bends the knee to Donald Trump https://finance.yahoo.com/news/apple-ceo-tim-cook-bends-173140460.html

Tim Cook says ‘thank you’ 8 times in less than two minutes at dinner with Donald Trump https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/India/tim-cook-says-thank-you-8-times-in-less-than-two-minutes-at-dinner-with-donald-trump-he-was-super-nervous/ar-AA1LZ4X5

FWIW : if you’re a minority targeted by fascists, Apple’s closed ecosystem is now a hostage situation with Cook’s allegiance to Trump

I hope whoever Apple’s next CEO is, they go back to doing live keynote presentations rather than filming slick hour-long commercials, and also stop sucking up to fascists

I have a meeting at 1:35 pm and another one at 2pm, so I am going to miss a substantial chunk of the Apple presentation going on now. I’m planning to buy precisely 0% of what’s shown, though, so that’s fine. (Unless they release new MacBook Pros today. Which they won’t.)

If David Lammy still denies Israel is committing genocide, he needs to answer this simple question:

What would you call it if someone was doing to Israel what Israel is doing to Gaza?

"I've tried everything permitted to you within the rulebook to resist our government's complicity in the genocide, without seeing any change in policy. And so, I think it is necessary to undertake peaceful direct action, and I'm very proud to be a part of that."

I got talking to Naoise Dolan about joining the #GlobalSumudFlotilla, what we want to achieve, and the Irish government's complicity.\

Despite last night’s attack on one of our boats, the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) remains resolute and undeterred. We are preparing to depart from Tunis. Our mission is clear: to expose Israel’s unfolding ethnic cleansing and stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

#Herzog arrives in Britan today

Whilst he is not in the same party as #Netanyahu and he is not wanted by the ICJ, he had said before now that:

"The entire Palestinian nation is responsible"

Whereby giving faux legitimacy to the #gazagenocide

Will you kindly sign and or share the petition asking for the meeting between him and #Starmer not to happen

I actually mostly like Xcode 16’s ML-driven “super autocomplete,” and have a vague fear the next major version of Xcode will try and replace it with Claude Code instead of adding LLMs as a separate option.

Captured with a DSLR and a 24mm shifting lens, shifted vertically to preserve geometry.

The tiny ghost town of Harvard, one of a series of often extravagantly named, largely abandoned communities near the Union Pacific Railroad and former Route 66 in the Mojave, was perhaps a victim of an Interstate highway system that passed it by.

I think the couch is still there, if you need one.

Report: UK police suppress Banksy's new mural about the suppression of free speech in the UK.

Banksy painted the mural on London's High Court days after nearly 900 people were detained in London for supporting Palestine Action.

The mural "portrays a judge beating a protester with a gavel." Police have covered it up.

Question for #GoToSocial folks: Is it possible to have different timeline layouts for different accounts on the same server?

I'm toying with the idea of having a predominantly text account on my GTS server with a text layout, and a second photos account with an image layout.

Is this possible?
