I don't get the upper machine. Why not make the holes part of the mold, rather than drilling them all after the fact?
Still frame from a video depicting a screwdriver prying open a SimpliSafe key fob.
One thing I like about our current tech landscape:
Simplisafe: "The battery within the Key Fob cannot be replaced."
YouTube: "To replace the Key Fob battery, just pry it open here with a screwdriver..."
@ronavitzur.bsky.social Saw this go by on Mastodon and wondered if you were aware of it.
Where are the die photos from?
Try patent lawyers sometime!
Where can I get one of those green things?
Uh, asking for a friend.
I just realized there's a perfect word for the endless promotion of AI:
Splopaganda!
That's awesome. Was Paranoimia playing in the background?
Newsletter: With Trump faltering and their policy agenda incomplete, the cryptocurrency industry has moved at least $288 million toward the midterms in a desperate bid to keep Republicans in control of Congress.

Mossberg just sat behind a microphone and droned.
You really took over for @davidpogue.bsky.social, who pioneered the tech-review-as-video-entertainment genre.
Any snow left in Antarctica?
@killedbygoogle.com Is book search coming to your list?
BTW, I just noticed KilledByGoogle.com has a search function. Cool, but crazy that it's necessary.
I found this one of the most hopeful things I've seen about the US recently.

Always wondered what the marketing on those wafers is.
"Real Jesus Flavor!"

"The year of technoligarchy" by @molly.wiki is worth your time to understand the situation we got ourselves into.

I don't think there's that much Astatine in it
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.
Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.
"Please get the truth out about our son."
Yes.
It's particularly stupid because by now people *only* resort to calling because they can't resolve the issue with the automated online systems.
By definition a phone call means "I need help from a human".
Switch to rechargeable AAs. Less toxic landfill, and they don't leak and wreck your equipment.

Have you checked Temu or AliExpress?
Chatbots will be paid untold billions to tell you what to buy, where to go, what to watch.
And with the billions of SuperPAC money - who to vote for.
I just realized the profit end game for AI. It's the same thing that fueled Facebook, Google and all the other tech behemoths: Advertising.
As Internet search shifts from search engines to chatbots, this is the next frontier for AI companies.
@zachweinersmith.bsky.social Important space research:
With AI, the whole "seeing is believing" thing didn't quite work out.
You added the arrow keys!
