The governor of Rhode Island has been very tough about restrictions during the pandemic. Today, she’s suggesting something different. @GovRaimondo — PolitiTweet.org

@rpesce Thanks, Rich. — PolitiTweet.org

And thanks to all the tech that gave me a long career and now, in retirement and this bizarre isolation, has kept us connected to family, friends, meetings, guided exercise, classes, book clubs, and of course entertainment. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is the 50th day of self-quarantine for my wife and me, a little over 7 weeks. We haven’t the left the house except for brief neighborhood walks. We’re fine so far. For us, it’s been the best choice and one that was made possible by brave delivery people. Thanks to them all. — PolitiTweet.org

@LaurenGoode One of my better decisions. — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t know if this year’s ⁦@CES⁩ in Las Vegas helped spread COVID-19. I’m no scientist and I wasn’t there. But I do know, after attending for decades, that wicked colds and flus have long been a common after-effect of the massive tech show. https://t.co/mbm7UicAYf — PolitiTweet.org

COVID-19 has taken one of my early mentors. His name was Bob McGilvray and, when I was a @WSJ beat reporter in DC, in the 70s and 80s, Bob ran the copy desk. He wasn’t famous, but he taught generations of reporters about high quality work, fairness, and unyielding ethics. RIP. — PolitiTweet.org

@MrSilva Your phone camera is very high res, usually much higher than laptop cameras. And in any case, I meant an app like Zoom or Skype that runs standalone on your laptop, not inside the browser. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@MrSilva Why not just use an app? Why use a browser? — PolitiTweet.org

Project Kalamata: @Apple’s pivotal plan to soon start replacing @intel chips in Macs with its own faster, more potent processors based on those in iPhones and iPads. Story by reliable Apple reporter @markgurman. It’s been reported before, but not in this detail that I’ve seen. — PolitiTweet.org

The @Verge gave the new iPhone SE a score of 8.5, not much less than the 9.0 that it awarded to the $1000 iPhone 11 Pro. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

Well, all the major consumer tech reviewers I follow are in with their iPhone SE2 reviews, and they're all highly positive, impressed with the quality of a $399 phone from the usually pricey @Apple. I'm talking @backlon, @JoannaStern, @LaurenGoode, @reneritchie, @MKBHD & more. https://t.co/CCjWMXrOJZ — PolitiTweet.org

Yet another ace reviewer, ⁦@LaurenGoode⁩, declares that you can now get a surprisingly good iPhone for just $399. https://t.co/g0QabnhbEz — PolitiTweet.org

@backlon Really good review. Surprisingly great phone. Can’t wait for my wife’s to arrive, though she’ll have to adjust to the bigger screen. She has loved her 4”. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m retweeting this again. It’s a powerful story, well worth reading. There have been many heartbreaking tales of families coping with COVID-19, and tons of reporting and commentary on the failures of the federal government to cope with it. But @racheld artfully combines both. — PolitiTweet.org

Walt Mossberg @waltmossberg

@racheld @VanityFair @jrwortman This is a terrific piece, Rachel. It artfully blends your family’s terrifying personal Coronavirus crisis with the infuriating failures of the Feds to cope with the pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

This endless debate about whether the iPad can *entirely* replace the laptop makes little sense to me. I definitely use mine for productivity and use my laptop much less. But new things don’t always wipe away old things. It depends on the task. Hell, we still have mainframes! — PolitiTweet.org
