Been a little while...
Just used my own blog post’s instructions to fix the keyboard shortcut not working to bring up ChatGPT’s chat bar on macOS. 💪 (Enable the Menu Bar icon.)
🆕📝 Kobo Plans a Hot Swap of Pocket for Instapaper (And Pocket Lives on as Folio)
Looks like I made a good choice when choosing a replacement for Pocket. 😁

🎵 “The Gift” by Aselin Debison remains one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Something about it gets my eyes to tear up no matter what time of year it is. Such joy in her young voice. It lives comfortably in my “Perfect Songs” playlist.
Let me know if it makes your heart happy too. 🥹
lol @robb@social.lol hooked his printer up to social media. 👏

Remember, you are not defined by this moment of struggle. You are defined by your resilience, your ability to push through, to rise from setbacks, and to keep going. The journey may be challenging, and the steps may be small, but as long as you are moving forward, you are making progress.
[…]
Keep going. You’ve got this.
“At Apple, we’re focused on creating and delivering exceptional experiences,” said Bob Borchers, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.
I really get a kick out of seeing Bob Borchers quoted in Apple media, which happens more these days as he’s risen to vice president level. I’ll always remember him as the talent in Apple’s guided tour videos showing off the iPhone back in 2007. I watched them incessantly back in the day.
Love these high and tight, super simple anchors. Allows for great positioning to see your follower — a must on this gorgeous, exposed climb!

I have read Susanna Clarke’s book ‘Piranesi’ twice already and am currently strongly tempted by a third expedition into her startlingly vivid, unsettling world. If you ever need a perfect example of the way that books can insert a complete and yet completely unfamiliar world into your brain, this is it.
Yes yes yes. Piranesi lives full-time and rent-free in my brain.

David Sparks blogs about families missing moments of joy with noses buried in screens:
We often talk about how people can’t put their phones down while in line at the market, but what about during moments of joy? When taking in a theme park with your family, at the beach, or on vacation? Those moments are found solely in your immersion in the now.
Pay attention the next time you are at a place like Disneyland. Notice how many people are remarkably, yet unremarkably, not even there.
I’m surely guilty of this too from time to time, but it’s not hard to leave the phone in my pocket.
Gorgeous day to be out on the rock. The boys followed up our hike yesterday with rock climbing today. We learned ADK and Swiss route ratings don’t always line up, but climbing is fun no matter where you do it! 🤘

We love showing off the beauty of the Adirondacks to visitors to our amazing park. The Baudins, hailing from Switzerland, took a waterfall hiking tour with us yesterday, and we got to enjoy water from above (river), below (waterfall), and within (rain shower) all in a 4-hour period!

🔗 ‘Moft’s MagSafe-Compatible Snap-On iPhone Stand and Wallet’ daringfireball.net
Here’s a product recommendation long in the making. Four years ago this month, Matthew Panzarino was my guest on The Talk Show and at one point he recommended Moft’s Snap-On iPhone Stand/Wallet. It uses a very clever origami-style folding design. Folded flat it kind of just looks like a leather MagSafe wallet. But folded open it works as a stand — and as a stand, it works both horizontally and vertically.
I’ve been using this as my one and only wallet for years, and I love it. Fun fidget toy in my pocket too.
I, too, have been trying to avoid the news. But if you like Apple News Games, this shortcut’s for you.
I really love the Apple News Crossword experience. Native keyboard, nice clue UI, Game Center support… But I’ve made an effort to avoid the app to reduce my anxiety.
So here’s a shortcut to open the app straight to the Puzzle’s section. Only one instruction!

I feel like I’m pretty good at email already, but I found a few things to learn from this video even just skipping around in it. (Bonus was the joy the guy had in learning about keyboard shortcuts and Things task capturing.)
Peregrine Falcons are just the coolest.
Thanks Jim! 🫶 It was a great way to spend the 4th of July, with two new friends out in the woods! Can’t wait to do Marshall together soon!
Our 3-day backpacking trip to summit Cliff & Redfield was a super success! Jim has had a few years off hiking high peaks, but he’s determined to become a #46er this summer with only 3 peaks left now that we’ve crossed off the formidable Cliff and Redfield! And to do them with his daughter, @imjessicakahler (peaks 10 and 11 for her!), is something special. We enjoyed two picturesque nights at Lake Colden, and as ideal trail conditions as you can expect for the ADK. There were many challenges — we had to doctor up both of Jess’ boots! — but found ourselves up to the task. Can’t wait for our next ones!
