@decryption They look pretty good. All of the shots I’ve seen online are from streetwear blogs but that’s probably true of 99% of ACG wear. architectureandsneakers.com/bl

@tonyarnold You can set it up using Google Groups. Not a setup I've used myself as we use M365, but might work for you? learn.missiveapp.com/configuri

@tonyarnold Missive is worth a look at if you’re looking for a collaborative space to handle support. missiveapp.com

We need a complete Safari iOS 15 beta cycle rage over this decision. It’s my favourite thing. mastodon.social/@simsaens/1146

@phocks My wife has one in yellow and carts our two kids around on it up and down the Gold Coast. Decent build but they burn through chains and brakes with it being so heavy.

@decryption It depends on the SDK version devs target so installing Android 16 won't force the change on apps. New Play Store apps must target at least Android 14 (SDK 34) and existing apps can use Android 13 (SDK 33) so it's going to be a while before it's forced in apps.

@decryption This has been in Android for a long time and it’s up to the dev (odd that Google isn’t doing it here). Android 15 made Edge-the-edge display the default and Android 16 removes the opt out option all together. expo.dev/blog/edge-to-edge-dis

fun fact: for almost a year, Apple + Android users have finally been able to join the same group chat, send images that don't get shrunk and see "typing" indicator (thanks to the RCS protocol)

Except not in Australia because our telcos haven't turned it on! @sizzle

I was this many days old when I found out that HBM is also referred to as “AI memory” 🙄 macrumors.com/2025/05/14/2027-

Maybe we'll get RCS support in iOS 19?

@jblake Sync across devices mostly (I use Windows at work). It’s also nice just having things like forms, apps etc. “just work”.

I’ve been basically using Chrome in full screen for months now. The only other app I use on the regular is Messages.

Amazing how quick I gave up on this. Back on Chrome, Gmail (forwarding from Fastmail), and I even have a Gemini Advanced sub.

Wow. CVE database is in serious trouble, tomorrow.

The cyber industry as a whole is in trouble also really, it’s the elephant in the room - the collapse of the White House’s support for cybersecurity is obvious and pronounced due to widespread cutbacks.
