A syzygy of coffee and assorted geekery by P. I. Moore.


End of an iPad era…


Dear Apple,

When I disable your “intelligence” on my devices, I’m doing it for a reason. When I have to go back and re-disable it after an update, I’m doing it because you’re being a pain in my ass and hoping I wouldn’t notice. Aren’t you the corporation that understands what “no” means, seeing as you say a thousand of them for every yes?

No.

I don’t want, need, or wish to use your AI.

Please kindly fuck off.




Merry Christmas to all…

And to all a day spent in comfortable pyjamas, fresh coffee that tastes better than sex, a breakfast you probably shouldn’t mention to your doctor, a cheerful holiday serenade from the crooners, and copious amounts of cheese.

Am I doing this right?

Happy holidays however you choose to spend it, with the exception of cheese—you need lots of cheese. Sorry, it’s non-negotiable, don’t argue with me. 😉
