In the forthcoming version of iOS, @Apple is simply switching from an obscure opt-out system for apps that want to track users across the web to an explicit opt-in system. At last! In my view, we should have a law requiring explicit opt-ins for the collection of personal data. https://t.co/Yrz2vNX4tV — PolitiTweet.org

The West Wing cast and creator Aaron Sorkin will reunite for a “reading” of a popular 3rd season election episode of the iconic show. It’s part of a get-out-the-vote effort. I can’t wait. Details in story. https://t.co/NGE2S9kqkH — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the 9th anniversary of Steve Jobs’s resignation as CEO of @Apple. Here’s my essay on his remarkable career, published that day. A video commentary is at the end. https://t.co/qcICLaCGOk — PolitiTweet.org

I believe Windows 95 benefited both @Microsoft AND its rival, @Apple. For Microsoft, it kicked off a wave of PC buying and OS upgrading. For Apple, which had failed to create a new OS, it forced the company to look outside, leading to the return of Steve Jobs and to OS X. — PolitiTweet.org

While I advised my mainstream readers to wait on upgrading to Windows 95, mostly due to the need for hardware and app upgrades needed to make full use of it, I lauded it. I couldn’t find a link to my review, but here’s the key conclusion. https://t.co/LI04w1nZNx — PolitiTweet.org

The launch of Windows 95 on this date 25 years ago was one of the biggest milestones in personal computing. It closed the gap with the Mac OS. And it cemented the graphical user interface as the standard. Congrats to @BillGates, @bradsilverberg & many others. https://t.co/FMm6x1UMFz — PolitiTweet.org

@MarkSobkowicz Biden is apparently going to stress the good vs evil thing. Though of course it’ll also be a battle about jobs and income inequality and race and postal service and, the #1 policy issue: how to handle COVID. But the Dems seem to be going big on light vs dark, hope vs fear, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

You didn’t misunderstand “my overall sentiment”. You misstated the plain meaning of my words. It was an analysis of someone else’s strategy, an explanation of what I thought they were going for, with examples - not an endorsement of the strategy or the person. — PolitiTweet.org

You need to read more carefully. I didn’t compare Biden to those people. I noted that Biden’s campaign theme is trying to position him in a manner that evokes those figures. I didn’t promote it or agree with it. In fact, I said it will be interesting to see if the strategy works. — PolitiTweet.org

Before tech, I spent years covering James A. Baker as Treasury Secretary and Secretary of State. We didn’t always agree, but I respected his skills and his ability to work across the aisle and with other nations. Now, he & his wife have COVID. I wish them a quick & full recovery. https://t.co/Yf0nm2HpiN — PolitiTweet.org

@ranimolla I like them all, but Misquamicut is great IMO. The R.I. beaches are as good as those on Cape Cod or in Connecticut, but generally less crowded (though still crowded). Bear in mind that, at least the last time I checked, they were limiting parking for out of state cars. — PolitiTweet.org

I also believe this is why so much of the convention was devoted to Biden as a kind, beloved person, always empathetic and ready to lend a hand. These montages vastly outweighed lists of his policies. It was directly aimed at contrasting him with Trump -as a person. — PolitiTweet.org

@lesliecampisi I disagree. The difference isn’t man vs woman. The difference is that HRC, who I supported, did it by reciting long lists of policy plans and Trump outrages. Biden holds those to a minimum. He’s going straight for the emotion, for the conscience. — PolitiTweet.org
