pov: updating your Linux install breaks your funky setup with a fake vista start menu, so you use GPT-5.6 Sol to get your own OS back to a normal state (and it does so pretty nicely!)

@RobertJBye self advertising (not had much time to work more on this though!)

@applepkmn11 @giodotblue I assume this is mostly a (heavy) wrapper over work done by Codeweavers for CrossOver and by extension Apple for GPTK? It would be much more desirable imo to just run Steam + Proton, especially if the performance overhead is lower.

@sama @Dimillian i like repeated numbers and i think it’s objectively better to have a higher number of people who like repeated numbers at a party with an assigned date with repeated numbers and an assigned time with repeated numbers for a model with a name with repeated numbers

@maddiedreese awesome! how fast was it before?

@nyan_satan Interesting. Does it have the iPhone OS 3 SpringBoard animations when Sensitive UI is disabled?

@luciascarlet the Air was cool, but i’m too glued to my phone so the battery life wasn’t enough, swapped it for the 17 Pro and the battery life is so good that I struggle to drain it on any given day. shame that it’s not as cool design-wise though.

@DietHeartNews @nexta_tv A major economy Russia, which has a GDP about the size of the state of Texas…

@788__77 @beebomco Observed identical drop with my 16 Pro

[Jackson @jackson_dam]

@tldtoday Switched from a 16 Pro. Battery is on the borderline between good/meh (6-7h screen on).

It’s a joy to hold and look at. It feels very premium, and not feeling anything in your pocket is super cool.

May still swap for a 17 Pro though - no ultrawide and one speaker is a bit sad

[Jackson @jackson_dam]

@mrxtechx @sondesix Looked about the same to me irl, I do not know how they look thicker in this photo.
