Nobody said iWord.

My apologies, I see I've misread it. Still don't know what iWork is. Surely what the question referred to was obvious

Here, I Googled it for you https://www.apple.com/iwork/

Oh, so I did understand correctly that it's Apple's version of Word etc.

My question was why one can't back up one's data though. I'm even more confused now that I know it refers to Pages/Keynote/etc. since those have always been file-based so far as I've seen from classmates who used it. Surely even Apple allows downloading your documents and spreadsheets from whatever storage front-end their live editing server uses?


Too many edge cases, some would still be exploitable. Eg if the real address was:

    Sheriff.CI.Jacksonville.FL.US
Malicious actors could register:

    Sheriff.Jacksonville.FL.US
Unless your solution is to add some verification step as part of .us registrations.

Can people register a subdomain of fl.us willy-nilly though? Isn't the root domain owned by the state?

From the RFC (note the "or businesses"):

   Name Space Within States:
   ------------------------

   "locality" - cities, counties, parishes, and townships.  Subdomains
   under the "locality" would be like CI.<city>.<state>.US,
   CO.<county>.<state>.US, or businesses. For example:
   Petville.Marvista.CA.US.

   "CI" - This branch is used for city government agencies and is a
   subdomain under the "locality" name (like Los Angeles). For example:
   Fire-Dept.CI.Los-Angeles.CA.US.
So you'd be counting on the sub-registrar of jacksonville.fl.us not to allow a registration for the fraudulent "business" of Sheriff, Inc. -- multiplied by every municipality across the country.

Many top-level TLDs have requirements you need to fulfill, .edu is a good example. Similarly you need to prove you're a local entity for many country-specific TLDs. At the end of the day though, this attack vector will always be there, no matter how diligent you are about it. Phishing is all about numbers and one in is often all you need.

Note: webgpu in Safari Mobile requires ios 26[1].

Sharing this in case others are waiting with this update like me.

You can enable it in iOS 18 https://enablegpu.com/guides/ios/

For Firefox/Fennec on Android, you need to enable `gfx.webgpu.ignore-blocklist` in about:config

Edit: oh, same link as above


Seems 2026 could be the year of general cross platform availability in Chrome & FF.

Not worth it. iOS 26 is horrible Ui-wise.

I expected some job interview meme[1][2] but I did not know this one and it looks like a real story too! Thanks for sharing, that was a fun read.

I love the Aphyr posts.

Works both in job interviews and real projects!

I’m almost serious, the only time I saw haskell in production was after a similar scenario.


> To restore decorum and professionalism to the Department’s written work products…

Who defines decorum and professionalism? Because I’d say this change is anything but.

Then again, this is very partisan and so subjective. Still, I’m not a fan of a government pushing certain esthetics with such a BS justification.


Not exactly related, but this is also the government that keeps insisting that the tariffs are paid by the foreign exporters (now that's a BS justification by any government that warrants widespread panic). It's all about narratives. I wouldn't bother much with fact checking them.

While I like the positives of that (easier to catch some criminals), I fear the abuse potential and the negatives overall way more.

It's not just to catch criminals. It's also to free those who get unfairly witch-hunted and accused of a crime when the evidence (camera) shows otherwise.

What is this referencing?

I found a song called “Bernie smells a rat”[1], is that it or is it something different?

Edit: apparently there was a line in The Incredibles, a character Bernie Kropp shouts: “Don’t ‘Bernie’ me! This little rat is guilty!”.

Yeah from Incredibles

Here is a comparison of the original vs the remaster: https://youtube.com/watch?v=KZ9Ac4WVW6Q&t=100s in case anyone else is interested too.

Visually at least it looks like a pretty tasteful remaster. Mostly just sharpening things up. Thanks for posting

Ah wow , rip the awesome fonts used in the original game. The new ones are so "clean" and boring :(

Glad to see the art itself was not too badly modified. It's weird though, like the vegetation in the Farm building looks weird. The original version you can tell it's some kind of yellow fruit or vegetable but in the remaster the yellow dots are unusually small and don't really "feel right". Strikes me as AI upscaling rather than hand-crafted editing.


> will most likely not make me renew my subscription for the new year. Given the price, it will be probably

Will the author find the time and energy to actually cancel the subscription? The fact that he wrote the blog post and still haven’t cancelled makes me wonder.


As an AI outsider with a recent 24GB macbook, can I follow the quick start[1] steps from the repo and expect decent results? How much time would it take to generate a single medium quality image?

[1]: https://github.com/Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image?tab=readme-ov-file#-qu...


I have a 24GB M5 macbook pro. In ComfyUI using default z-image workflow, generating a single image just took me 399 seconds, during which the computer froze and my airpods lost audio.

On replicate.com a single image takes 1.5s at a price of 1000 images per $1. Would be interesting to see how quick it is on ComfyUI Cloud.

Overall, running generative models locally on Macs seems very poor time investment.


Try koboldcpp with the kcppt config file. The easiest way by far.

Download the release here

* https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp/releases/tag/v1.103

Download the config file here

* https://huggingface.co/koboldcpp/kcppt/resolve/main/z-image-...

Set +x to the koboldcpp executable and launch it, select 'Load config' and point at the config file, then hit 'launch'.

Wait until the model weights are downloaded and launched, then open a browser and go to:

* http://localhost:5001/sdui

EDIT: This will work for Linux, Windows and Mac


If you don't know anything about AI in terms of how these models are run, comfyui's macos version is probably the easiset to use. There is already a Z-Image workflow that you can get and comfyui will get all the models you need and get it work together. Can expect decent speed


Have a 48GB M4 Pro and every inference step takes like 10 seconds on a 1024x1024 image. so six steps and you need a minute. Not terrible, not great.


I'm fine with the quick start steps and I prefer CLI to GUI anyway. But if I try it and find it too complex, I now know what to try instead - thanks.

I'm still curious whether this would run on a MacBook and how long would it take to generate an image. What machine are you using?
