The Apple September Event was the other day and like these events always seem to do (and WWDC is no different) is kick up the hornets nest of the Apple haters. This years hot topic: USB-C! All the Apple haters I’ve seen have been spewing the same piece of misinformation over and over: “Apple was …
This is a rant post. If you’re offended by swearing or think Musk is a god, then skip this one. Look. I’m going to be frank. If you’re still on Twitter, or is it X? Who the fuck even knows anymore? You’re a fucking idiot and part of the goddamn problem. Of course, if you …

We definitely need to bring back blogs now that Musk has helped stick a nail in the Web 2.0 coffin. Web 2.5 is still social but it brings ownership back …
Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and that means it’s time to do my annual reflections of the year and look forward to the next year. 2022 was definitely an interesting year for sure. I’ve already done this from a company point of view so it’s time to do it from my own personal point of view. …
I’ll be honest – I’ve never liked Musk. I thought he was overrated back in 2012, I think he’s even more overrated now.
