Truly ridiculous.

They don't need Apple for that. People who game already game elsewhere. Steam on Apple feels pointless. I wouldn't be surprised, if Valve will go for smartphones with their own at some point

Building a "classic" search engine is a very fun project to go through.

After wearing a few automatic watches, I came back to my happy place - digital Casio watch, similar to the one I had as a kid. I think my brain is very used to reading time in that form. I wear ABL100, which is a bit bigger than usual digital Casio and therefore highly wearable.
