iPhone 16 Pro.

Dave over at Blogography wrote a most excellent review of his new iPhone 16 Pro. Much of what he talks about in the review mirrors my feeling on my new iPhone 16 Pro. I like my phone very much, but even upgrading from my iPhone 13 Pro has felt quite iterative instead of evolutionary.

And what in the world is Apple thinking with touting “Built for Apple Intelligence” everywhere when Apple Intelligence hasn’t been released to the masses yet?

I really miss the days of tech being released when it was evolutionary or revolutionary instead of just a mark on the calendar.

Truth.

When we live in a society that no longer prioritizes verifiable facts and the actual truth over rumors, fear mongering, and outright lies, we no longer live in a functioning society.

I’ve been tapped out of the news and most of social media for a while, so I was unaware of the idiocy firing around the Internet around Hurricane Helene recovery efforts. I should have known better, it is election season with Donald Trump running again as the worst presidential candidate in history.

FEMA has created some webpages addressing these lies, rumors, and other disinformation. FEMA is trying to do good things.

It’s a shame the MAGA crowd is trying to countermand their efforts with their disinformation campaign.
