Atoms 

My thanks to Atoms for sponsoring last week at DF. I’m wearing Atoms right now, as I type this. They’re some of my favorite shoes I’ve ever owned. Atoms designed its Model 000 to be the shoe you’d want to wear every day. Thanks to their comfort and simplicity, they can become your go-to sneaker, and work with just about any outfit.

This holiday, Atoms is bringing back some of its popular limited edition colors. Daring Fireball readers get 15% off all Model 000 colors. Take advantage of the opportunity to stock up for the holidays. Just use code DARING at checkout.

‘Twitter, Cut in Half’ 

Casey Newton and Zoë Schiffer, writing at Platformer:

Eight days into Musk’s ownership of Twitter, many pundits have begun to predict that this is the beginning of the end. No one can quite imagine a world without Twitter, but no one can quite imagine this version of Twitter surviving, either.

Chinese COVID-19 Restrictions Now Affecting Shipments of iPhones 14 Pro and Pro Max 

Apple:

COVID-19 restrictions have temporarily impacted the primary iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max assembly facility located in Zhengzhou, China. The facility is currently operating at significantly reduced capacity. As we have done throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we are prioritizing the health and safety of the workers in our supply chain.

We continue to see strong demand for iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models. However, we now expect lower iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max shipments than we previously anticipated and customers will experience longer wait times to receive their new products.

The writing has been on the wall with this outbreak.
