“In the first few centuries of the third millennium CE, communications and records became increasingly mediated by computers, which stored information as long sequences of microscopic markings on various metals, illegible by today’s machines. As such, we know dismayingly little about the daily […]

I’m so excited for the people who’ve never played Ocarina of Time before to play the remake. All I’m hearing is that it’s great and I’m not a purist about it.

The Somerville Theatre, with its iconic marquee, is one of the crown jewels of Greater #Boston. It’s one of few independent theaters in the world that screens films on 70mm. Their future had been in jeopardy, but they just purchased their building for $12 million to ensure they don’t have to […]

So this is it now, it is now an established convention that Personal AI Agents are to be conceived of as squishy, fuzzy blobs? This will be the visual association we have with these going forward?

A game playtesting application form from @panic. It’s things like this tiny joke that have endeared them to me for so many years. Everything they do is colored by their personality and sense of humor, and it makes you want to follow them anywhere.

Anyway, god bless Kranky https://midheaven.com/item/helen/linda-s-head

midheaven.comHelen: Linda's Head | Midheaven MailorderLinda’s Head is the first new album in over a decade by the Pacific Northwest trio of Liz Harris (guitar, vocals), Scott Simmons (bass), and Jed Bindeman (drums).?! Like its predecessor, 2015’s The Original Faces, the album maps a uniquely intimate and potent vision of bedroom dream pop.?! Theirs is a shoegaze of half-light and silhouettes, attuned to the shadowplay of melody, melancholy, and undertow.The record’s title is a refraction of meanings: a head in the clouds, a severance, a fictitious landform jutting into the sea.?!

Auto-correct keeps getting spontaneously disabled on iOS 27 (and I think maybe 26?), and it’s really frustrating. Sorry yes I use auto-correct

Linktree is the biggest scam in the world. It’s a freaking with a paid plan. Write a few lines of HTML and get a domain name for $20 a year! This is what the web is for

New #Apple Music logo -- I can only assume this is San Francisco Bold Extended? https://www.macrumors.com/2026/10/06/apple-music-is-getting-a-new-logo/

macrumors.comApple Music Is Getting a New LogoApple appears to be rolling out a new logo for Apple Music in its upcoming set of software updates. The logo has been spotted in both macOS 27.2 beta 3 and iOS 27.2 beta 3, and it's identical to the one that Apple used in its Apple Music Hall announcement last month. When Apple used the logo in the venue's press materials and on its new official website, it wasn't clear if this was a one-off branding exclusive to the hall. All the evidence now points to it being the company's official new logo for its music streaming service. > iOS 27.2 beta 3 uses the new Apple Music logo https://t.co/Y2OaON5Bg3 > > — Aaron (@aaronp613) October 5, 2026 > The new Apple Music logo is starting to appear in macOS 27.2 beta 3! https://t.co/nWZAW5dobf > > — ldt (@madeby_ldt) October 5, 2026 Apple's official Apple Music website and web player still show the old logo, but it's just a matter of time before everything is updated. Apple is expected to release the software updates to the public later this month, shortly after the launch of the iPhone Duo, so expect to see the new Apple Music logo everywhere by then.
