The Lenovo Yoga Book 9i is unhinged. It's a computer with the form factor of a laptop, but with a second screen where the keyboard, palm rest, and trackpad would normally go. When used in a laptop configuration, a Bluetooth keyboard can magnetically attach to the lower touchscreen while leaving

I've put this week's #Overmorrow to bed.

This time, I'm talking about something I like about Microsoft, which will probably be less appealing to some of you, but it's also mostly about how they're fucking it up, which I hope makes up for it.

Preferring humans to AI is not "chauvinism" or "speciesism" or any other sort of bigotry. It isn't. It literally can't be.

When AI boosters call it that, they are at best making a category error, and at worst trying to slander and bully skeptics into silence. Don't accept their terms.

Broken Windows theory.
What if you didn’t have to computer as much? This is the basic pitch for “agentic” artificial intelligence—AI products that purport to go beyond chatbots, to autonomously “go do stuff” on behalf of the user. Microsoft has been touting “agentic” capabilities coming to Windows, meaning that large language

No, that's Elphaba. Ephebophilia is the largest city in Pennsylvania where the Phillies, Flyers, Eagles, and Sixers play.

QAnon, PizzaGate, anti-trans propaganda, online safety bills—none of it has *ever* been about protecting kids. None of it.

If it was, Republicans wouldn't be arguing about what age it becomes ok to traffick and rape someone.

I don't want AI to sit on my face.
“Nobody wants to strap a computer to their face.” That’s what I remember from when the Apple Vision Pro was announced. I heard it on podcasts, in conversation with my gadget-obsessed but practical colleagues in IT, in Mastodon posts. There were other gripes, of course. It started at $3,
