Testing something out. Ignore this :)

It’s pretty awesome to be able to see a partial solar eclipse by putting eclipse glasses over the lens of my iPhone. Clearly what Steve Jobs saw as the possibilities of a computer in your pocket.

we interviewed new jersey's attorney general who is co-leading the doj's antitrust suit against apple:

We interviewed Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. One thing we asked about was transportation tech he’s excited about. Tl:dr — flying cars!

“There are some things we do see coming: advanced air mobility, which is another way of talking about, basically, flying cars. Or electric vertical take-off and landing, or eVTOL, craft is something that I think will be arriving very quickly in American airspace and could make a big difference for a lot of people.”

@BlackAzizAnansi just boosted this on bluesky. hopefully one day I won’t have to toggle between apps and can just boost a post here and simultaneously there. Will be interested in hearing your thoughts on difference bt apps. I find I spend more time there bc it’s in and out; here is more “work” (I am lazy)

@maxkennerly truly late stage capitalism effect. Water down if not eliminate art in order to appease corporate sponsors.

A personal essay from several lifetimes ago about why this random day means so much to me, a random person on the internet.

@danielfalk money (and the incentive of) gets in the way of a lot of things!

@shellsharks yeah, i think the whole moderation/scaling issues are gonna be a big eye opener for some folks.

@jsit @bourgwick same. i am not on threads, as i nuked my fb/insta accts in 2018. i like bluesky and see the potential.

@bourgwick @jsit looks like bridges between are possible but slow moving.

@noah 100 percent!

@JPZ oh that's interesting. i don't have that experience. i wonder if with more people signing up, more people to follow, there will be more of a stream for folks?
