Dude.

There’s nothing more left to be said. If I were Donald Trump, I would take the weekend off had I not had a rally planned in the suddenly swingy state of Virginia. Where he is making his first public appearance with … a potential running mate?

I think the word "ad" should be used loosely. Ads have points put behind them and are run on television or Goog… ok, Google would never. But TV, sure. This is a digital video. Trump’s social media team had a lot to work with and, if I were to guess, got into the bourbon. They had fun. This was an easy layup.

IF Team Trump wanted to put this up on TV in any combination of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada, and/or Georgia, there would be nothing for the station to reject. Trump isn’t making any claims, misleading or otherwise. Trump isn’t saying anything at all. It’s nothing but ninety seconds of him promoting his opponent.

What would a network do? You can’t claim "cheap fake" anymore. Joe Biden’s braindead gaze took away what the Left and the media (but I repeat myself) were hoping to use as a talking point for the rest of the summer. Trump doesn’t need to say anything himself. Biden said it all last night, at an event designed to make him look good, in his special Biden way.

Not that the ad/digital video couldn’t use a little more Trump. I just need one line:

As of this writing, Joe Biden still has a full day of campaigning scheduled.

As of this writing, at least.

Splitting an object into pieces by cutting it has proven invaluable in everything from starting fires to the production of goods. New Mind offers an in-depth exploration of the physics at work when we chop, cut, saw, slice, dice, and machine things to make more things. Along the way, you’ll learn about the history and development of cutting tools.

The macOS ChatGPT desktop app is now available to everyone. That is, provided you’re running an Apple Silicon Mac (sorry, Intel users) and your computer is on macOS Sonoma or higher. OpenAI rolled out the app gradually, starting with Plus subscribers last month.

ChatGPT now has an official macOS client before it has a Windows one. (In case you haven’t heard, Microsoft is its most crucial partner.) Of course, Windows 11 has the OpenAI-powered Microsoft CoPilot baked into its OS, which likely explains the omission. OpenAI and Apple are also teaming up on Apple Intelligence, which arrives later this year (unless you’re in Europe).

The Mac app includes a keyboard shortcut (option-space by default, but it’s customizable) for typing chatbot queries from anywhere in macOS. Otherwise, the app mirrors the ChatGPT website’s appearance and functionality (including custom GPTs), except in native app form. You can also upload files, photos and screenshots.

You can download and install ChatGPT for macOS from OpenAI.
