Last Notes npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman There are a lot of knee-jerk, AAIAB (All AIs Are Bad) stances among some writers, but used properly, it's just another tool in the box. @nprofile…gp9v nails it. npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman Good look from @nprofile…wvv9 at music apps. iOS/Mac focused but most of the apps work on other platforms. The author's use cases are tad niche-y but if you've been curious about other music platforms, it's a good starting point. Worth your time to read. npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman Yet another reason to use an ad blocker. npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman @nprofile…g2e2 @nprofile…hy5n Yeah, Maps was one of the services affected so if you were using that on your drive, it would have gone south. CarPlay itself should have been fine, it's just a secondary display to your phone. npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman This "ghost tapping" warning has the whiff of bullshit - or at the very least, overblowing something that is exceedingly rare. (A lot of local TV stations picked this up.) npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman I used to urge folks to update their operating systems and apps right away, but developments like Apple's Liquid Glass redesign and Microsoft's problems with updates that kill features and even brick hardware changed my mind. Count me in on the "wait til the first point release" crowd. npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman @nprofile…f3zv Tucows later provided 404 Media with a comment that indicates it complies with “valid due process,” without saying whether this subpoena qualifies.. npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman Tucows is based in Canada, so unless there was also a Letter Rogatory sent to a Canadian court, which would then have to bless the subpoena, it's not enforceable. https://mastodon.social/@404mediaco/115503464728695623 npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman RF Shielding History: When The FCC Cracked Down On Computers https://tedium.co/2025/10/20/computers-fcc-rf-interference-history/ npub1z3qjcu2ng9tz2vu9g2kde6zyxwx4e7jxwet9lj9j0hzk6xlplgrsn2seqm Dwight Silverman @nprofile…7klc I wonder how other carriers would do out there? I'm a T-Mobile customer and have been pleased with how good their coverage has gotten in rural areas.
