RT @kellymakena: icymi, here's the highlights from yesterday's app store hearing with apple! actually a lot happened! https://t.co/spjZefC… — PolitiTweet.org

@jpsmythe It’s from Chrome Industries but I can assure you it doens’t work with glasses any better than anything else. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the scuffs and scratches on an AirTag after a few hours of handling. I don’t think we did anything excessive here either. I mean it’s not a huge deal that this happens but it’s still pretty weird! https://t.co/kkD2A6OhCn — PolitiTweet.org

@marinaepelman @vjeranpavic @reckless Nilay and I talked over some theft stuff last night! In my opinion, the AirTag wouldn’t make a good theft deterrent device because if they find it they can just remove the battery. All in all I would rather Apple include safety features than try to do theft deterrent stuff. — PolitiTweet.org

@AndrewVoyer @vjeranpavic Hm but the iPhone is good at what it’s supposed to be good at, though. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

@vjeranpavic Oh also here is the purple iPhone. Which is purple. Or maybe kind of lilac? Definitely not mauve. You know what? It’s purple. https://t.co/20TFhWKDvI — PolitiTweet.org

@vjeranpavic Also, not since the iPod Nano has an Apple gadget gotten scuffed and scratched so easily. Without having the first clue how it happened, multiple little buttons looked a little worse for wear in a matter of hours. Nice design but with weird practical misses? Sounds like Apple! — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

@vjeranpavic AirTags are very, very Apple. They work great but are also going to be another thing that will keep you using the iPhone instead of considering switching. Apple’s privacy and safety features for AirTags are very thoughtfully designed, which is also very Apple. — PolitiTweet.org

Here is our extensive first look at Apple AirTags. @vjeranpavic and I played a game of hide and seek in Oakland, with me trying to track one down across the city. Fun video! https://t.co/wHEJOwmM6C — PolitiTweet.org

One thing the iPhone 12 mini really teaches you is how to be more comfortable with having your battery below 30% because it happens every day — PolitiTweet.org

@jimseven @AndyManganelli I just ran it 12:200 on a darker roast and it’s great. For whatever reason I can’t get my technique on Chemex to not be sour but this is just so forgiving by comparison. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

@AndyManganelli @jimseven oh yeah that part is clutch. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

@jimseven I personally will probably use a higher ratio myself, but the no muss no inverted no stirring no prewetting method is the way to go imo. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s here, after some long videos about what the variables do in the Aeropress (many of which were accurately tagged as being coffee theatre), here’s a very short, sweet, and blessedly and appropriately simple recipe and video from @jimseven https://t.co/WN7BWwDFRj — PolitiTweet.org

Conversation I expect many go-to family tech experts may be having this year: So should I get the new iPad Pro? It’s pretty neat and fast! It has the same processor as the new Macs. So it runs Mac apps now? Cool! Well... Well? Well no. Oh. — PolitiTweet.org

Since Apple is regularly cycling the Bluetooth identifier on the AirTag so it can’t be shadow tracked that that make it a Somewhat Fungible Token? — PolitiTweet.org

I JUST noticed that the new Siri Remote has a BACK button instead of “Menu.” I’m sure they’re basically the same function but as an Android user it is pretty pretty funny to know there’s now an iOS-based device with a physical back button. https://t.co/ssraSrh8Lr https://t.co/QmVM88txVf — PolitiTweet.org
