Touch is broken, like seriously broken, touching the button onscreen, square in the middle, will lelect the button to the left. If that weren't trash enough, Liquid Glass toolbars hover over links and obscure stuff which, on short output dynamic pages, often makes progressing through some forms impossible. It's not as bad as Android yeat, but it's definitely #enshitification by Apple standards. Was thinking of a new iPhone 17 in the new year, it might be a new "dumb phone" instead.

There is a need for all of us of middle class, working class or unemployed class to join the "Millenials" in their uprisings. A young woman, while still a literal child, Greta Thunberg, had more courage than any President or Prime Minister in the world today, and Greta, still, today a young woman, is inspiring her generation in places like Nepal or Morocco or Singapore.
