🆕📝 Letters with Jason, Belated [#3]
This one got a bit moody and abstract. But it was cathartic to finally stitch the thoughts together enough to get them out of my head. Sorry it took so long, @jsonbecker! You sent me a real thinker.
🆕📝 Has Google Safeguarded Its New AI Photo Features or Not?
With ease of use, the waters around AI photo edits have become murky. But I’d argue that Google hasn’t just tossed us in without floaties.
🆕📝 Panzarino on what happens if you cancel iTunes Match when you have Apple Music
TL;DR: You can cancel iTunes Match and not lose anything. Mostly. Kinda. You should probably read it. 😜
🆕📝 Retail iPhone Updater Could Be Awesome — and an Awesome Pain for Employees
Minutes saved for many customers might mean hours added for few employees.
Would you look at that! I’ve managed to run a little more each year since 2019. 🙂 🏃♂️
This hotel thinks we need professional-grade toilet paper.
Yes, thank you @manton! I much prefer when your RSS feed always points back to your own domain. Make the external link to whatever you’re highlighting obvious, but I subscribed to you. I want to be taken to your site first. It’s more clear, and clear is better.
The diagonal iPhone camera lenses look waaaaay better than the stacked ones. And better than the 3-lens array on the Pro models. Fight me.
I’m feeling post-y and spicy tonight. AMA
“Not sleeping together is complicated.” I just saw this line from the trailer for ‘Still Up’, an Apple TV+ show about a couple of friendly insomniacs. It produced a chuckle. 😆 I love British comedies.
We need Snapchat-like quick sending of photos to multiple people for iOS messages. I could probably make a facsimile of it with Shortcuts, but the UI in Snapchat is great.
I’ve been using TopNotch.app for years and loved it. But now Bartender replicates the rounded screen corners feature, and (fingers crossed) it doesn’t look like it has the same buggy dynamic wallpaper limitations. As much as I liked TopNotch, this means one less app I need running on my system!
I think way too much about usernames and domains. Sometimes I wish I wouldn’t care so much and reclaim that brain time.
Whelp, now I feel silly. I’d been wondering why I couldn’t get my automatic starter to work for months. Turns out I never tried locking the car first. 🤦♂️
📺 Finished watching: BEEF on Netflix ★★★★
The ante just. kept. getting. raised!
🆕📝 Sean Hollister: ‘Google’s seven-year Pixel update promise is historic — or meaningless’
Actions speak louder than words.
Quite the hodgepodge this week!
You might have thought that @burk was joking. He wasn’t joking. 🤣 https://overcast.fm/+hdKPtaH1s/35:36
Had a blast in the (very wet) Lake Placid Half Marathon yesterday! It was awesome to see so many people getting after it despite the rain and chilly weather. And I even placed pretty well, even though I really just wanted to finish without injury. 😁 🏃♂️
Uh oh. I’m getting the itch for alpinism. Also, just finished watching Race to the Summit. Awe inspiring human achievements.
🆕📝 (Rope) Solo
Tonight was a good climbing night.
Ugh. Experienced data loss today for the first time in ages. I knew better than to type a whole blog post into a web browser without copying it elsewhere, and yet… Now to decide if it’s worth rewriting.
🆕📝 My Appearance on ‘Really Specific Stories’
Would you look at that, I’m on a podcast! But not just any podcast, one of my favorites: the ever gracious @martinfeld’s Really Specific Stories.
🆕📝 T-Mobile’s $10 iPad cellular plan is the best deal in data
I never hear folks mention it, but I’ve been using this data plan for years. It’s time for more people to know!
