I've tried like a dozen iOS dictation apps and Mac apps, and I'm shocked by how good @FluidVoiceApp is. I'll admit that I had a bit of hesitancy about local models, but I was completely wrong. Another great thing about the iOS app is you don't need to always swipe back and forth between the app and the app you're trying to write in. I don't know what they're doing to make that work, but it works. And it's freakin' free.

I’m sorry but if you’re not going to let my personal agent use your website, I’m going to a competitor’s website.

Hell yeah. I knew there was a reason I was still checking in to places.

If I get access to @typesafeai’s Jev, I’m just going to use it to figure out what to make for dinner each night.

Got a @Pebble Index 01 ring and immediately set up a Notion worker in ChatGPT to drop my thoughts into my daily notes. I’ve tried all kinds of automations across countless apps and agents just to keep a record of what I do each day. This is dead simple, and it just works.

Codex remote is everything right now

I might be looking forward to this more than Dune.

I think I’ve finally figured out how to spend less time on my iPhone. Apparently, it required another iPhone. I’ve been flirting with the dumbphone life for a while. I never expected to go full time, but I wanted a little refuge from the internet on nights and weekends. I tried Brick (@livebricked) on and off for a couple of years. It’s a great device, especially paired with Blank Spaces to make my phone feel as dumb as possible. The problem: because I have no life, I was usually home near my Brick whenever I wanted to cheat. Which happened more often than I’d like to admit. I also tried a Light Phone (@thelightphone). But iMessage had its claws in me, and switching back and forth made messaging enough of a nightmare that I eventually sold it. What’s finally stuck for the past few months is an iPhone Air with only the bare minimum apps installed. Every night, I forward calls from my main phone to the Air and put the main phone in a drawer. The Air becomes my nights-and-weekends phone. The familiar experience makes a bigger difference than I expected. I can use the essential apps without fighting the phone or reaching for my normal one. Right now, the Air is on a cheap MVNO plan. I’m hoping @ATT supports iPhone Handoff (theverge.com/tech/990868/iph…) in iOS 27 so I can retire the call-forwarding routine. Getting another iPhone to use my iPhone less: the kind of reasoning only a gadget addict could believe.

I wonder how long it has been since Jeff Bezos read a book.

⁦@arcinternet⁩ I know there isn’t an iPad version of the mobile app yet, but can you include an icon for the iPad so we can send info to Arc from that device? BTW, the mobile app is 🔥

I cracked the code for the #TSxCapitalOne #Giveaway! @CapitalOne, I’m ready to see @taylorswift13 at #TSTheErasTour!

I seem to be able to read tweets again with @tweetbot, but I can't post.

I guess we’re going to freak out that this place is about to burn down every few weeks. You can find me at: instagram.com/widepipe/ post.news/widepipe [email protected]

If AI doesn’t do anything else, at least it taught my kid how to flush the toilet.

One year of daily meditation with @Headspace! I can't recommend it enough. The level of mindfulness I feel while meditating tracks with my general mental well-being. If I have a few bad sessions in a row, I know I need to take care of myself.

It's astonishing to me that all of the Twitter replacements are getting the main feature wrong... character limits. That is the feature! All of us need an editor.
