Letztes Jahr haben wir nach rund 15 Jahren unseres #Tech-Blogs erstmals ein bisschen #Apple-Feeling vor Ort im #VisitorCenter in #Cupertino wahrnehmen können. Was für uns das absolute Highlight wäre? Die #iPhone-#Keynote vor Ort miterleben zu dürfen. Davon abgesehen hat uns Apple eine Einladung zum #iPhone17-Event geschickt, allerdings nur zur Online-Teilnahme per #Livestream.

Das und mehr waren unsere Themen der Woche: appgefahren.de/highlights-der-…

Here is my new newsletter article! 🙂

Why the Transistor Radio Was Actually the First Smartphone (And What That Teaches Us About Digital Transformation)

Before we had smartphones creating personal media bubbles, teenagers in the 1950s were doing the exact same thing with transistor radios.

They'd escape to their bedrooms, tune into rock and roll (that parents hated), and discover pirate radio stations broadcasting rebellion from ships offshore.

Sound familiar?

This isn't just tech nostalgia. It's a pattern that reveals something crucial about how technologies actually evolve—and why our current AI fears might be missing the point.

Radio didn't kill newspapers. TV didn't kill radio. The internet didn't kill any of them. They all found new ways to matter.

As Marshall McLuhan said: "The medium is the message." To understand what's happening in our digital age, we need to understand the media themselves—not just the content they carry.

New newsletter exploring this pattern and what it means for our hybrid analog-digital future 👇

What do you think? Are we repeating history or writing something entirely new?

The video features a small white rabbit with brown ears and black eyes, interacting with a person's legs on a grey couch. The person is wearing grey pajama pants and grey socks. The rabbit is seen nibbling on the person's sock and moving around their legs. The background includes a grey couch with a patterned cover, a Christmas tree, and a television displaying a colorful scene. The text "Надо казаться носки поменять)" is overlaid on the video, which translates to "It seems like the socks need to be changed)" in English. The rabbit appears curious and playful, hopping around the person's legs and eventually jumping off the couch onto the floor. The video captures the rabbit's movements and interactions with the person's legs, creating a cozy and festive atmosphere.

From Justin Miller: What began as a demand from on high (i.e. the Trump administration) and sparked a national partisan gerrymandering arms race, has become the new political reality now that Governor Greg Abbott signed House Bill 4 into law on Friday.

Is Fennec nonfunctional for anyone else?


I woke up one day and Fennec wouldn't browse any web page. Like, if I do a search, which goes to DuckDuckGo, I get a loading bar that never goes anywhere. (See screenshot).

If I disable all of my extensions, it'll work again. Then, if I enable them one by one to try to find the culprit that was making Fennec not work, it doesn't break! Until it does, randomly. I basically can't easily reproduce it working or not working.

I switched to IronFox, and installed all the same extensions, and have had no problems for two days.

I never wear nail polish because it always seems to flake off in a couple days no matter what base coat i use. None of them bond well to my nails.

This week I had an idea for an experiment. I brushed a thin layer of super glue onto my nails and then put the polish on over that.

So far, it's been four days and the polish is still in good shape. The only places where it's missing is where it was sanded away while I was throwing in ceramics class on Friday

A pilgrimage-symbol of Northern Portugal — the catholic-cultural spirit at its peak, the bond with the sea, the northernmost coastal city, and the charm of street life: local trade, drummers, and marching bands filling every corner with festivity. Eight days without a line-up of big-name artists — yet it gathers more people than heartbeats, a living embodiment of Portugalidade in its purest sense.

Viana do Castelo, II/III.

Obraz przedstawia uroczy, animowany kijek do klemienia papieru w kolorze fioletowym. Kijek ma duże, wyraziste oczy z białymi okoliscami i czarnymi centrami, które nadają mu wyrazisty wygląd. Powyżej oczu znajdują się brwi, które dodają mu osobowości. Kijek jest umieszczony na białym tle, co sprawia, że jego rysy są wyraźnie widoczne.

Struggling today.

As of 10am yesterday morning, we're technically homeless. My partner's parents reluctantly allowed us to stay the night at their place but cannot continue to do so because his mother is quite allergic to our pup.

Then this morning, I saw the total we had raised on our own GoFundMe. I knew it was a lot but seeing it right there, when it hasn't even been our primary source of crowdfunds.. 😱

Then I saw the much smaller amount on our former neighbor's GoFundMe. I thought for sure a single mother trapped in a toxic situation would get tons of traction. As per usual, I assumed incorrectly.

I'm trying to fight the feelings of being a burden on the community and failing to help our friend.

We're staying the night at an Airbnb (I know, I know.) After that.. who knows.

It's maddening to think that my work hired someone off the street for (allegedly) $27/hr. Someone I have to train on how to do basic aspects of their own job. If they really are paying him that much, I think they may have chosen incorrectly.

That kind of money would be life-changing for me, and for my family.

Oh, well.
