Jury is out on Homeview (convenient, yes but is it useful and easier to use than just an iPhone) but the AppleTV’s speed bump is noticeable and despite the $299 price tag, I’m not sure I want to go back to my old one.
I wish this functionality existed for every Apple device in the entire house. I guess you can use MDM for personal devices but one can dream.
I know SiriAI is coming to the previous generation AppleTV but it will for sure be very sluggish when it ships so I probably won’t enable it. I’m still prepared to return both devices so we’ll see how this trial goes.
The new AppleTV is noticeably faster, so much that going to the previous generation unit and you can feel the millisecond lag between app switching and table view loads after selecting a menu option.
Other than HomeView telling me it can’t connect and to put my iPhone on the same WiFi network (it is), things are going great. I think some of this is just HomeView caching a lot of data so I’ll come back to it later.
Is that an advertisement, Apple? Please tell me it isn’t.
I need to make a stand that brings it up about 12 inches
They’re not turned on yet but i put up Christmas lights. Shame on me.
Went to BestBuy today. Held an IPhone Duo and it was pretty pleasant to play with even though I love my iPad Mini & iPad Pro 13” but enjoyable to just handle and open. Saw a 14” PROLED XDR in person and wow, that is a really special display. colors were outrageous.

Pizza.
Vertical videos on a 30 inch monitor I can deal with. Having YouTube enable captions by default when most videos are captioned by the creators anyway….that really grinds my gears. I don’t want any captions…I’m an adult, I have speakers in my office but two sets of captions? …
Good morning America.
Voted.
I successfully raked up all of the leaves today.
I also had some power loss issues which I think are carbon build up so I roasted the muffler on a bed of charcoal to break up the carbon and soot which I hope has worked since a new muffler is $170. Having a lift is so nice though
Busy weekend. I’ve been restoring my 11 year old Snowblower that I’ve done nothing to except change the oil. I took it apart, sanded, painted, replaced all of the springs, cables, fluids, belts, scraper, skid puck things and more. I’m about 10 hours into it so far.
$8549 is the price of my MacBook Pro’s specifications with a fancy new screen. The non-OLED MacBook pro with the same spec is $8,149.00 So OLED is specifically worth about $400 premium. Not bad but I’m still confused as to why Apple didn’t just upgrade the Macbook Pro to OLED?
I’m firmly in the camp that it’s been 5-6 years since a MacBook Pro redesign and this is just the next generation of industrial design with today’s internals, a platform for what’s next and a new screen technology. A new product family is offensive to every “Pro” …
On the even of this OLED MacBook Pro event, I’m frankly going to be pissed that Apple would dilute the “Pro” name by creating a $tier that sits above it with OLED and a touch screen. PowerBook and MacBook Pro meant no compromises workstations.
Great riding today.
Now that everything is setup, I think this afternoon I’m going to organize my tool box for maximum functionality.
My daughter might have the best kid’s room view ever.
Over the last 6 weeks, I replaced every fluid in my RAM Diesel and out of pocket it was about $750 in consumables. That same service at the dealer would exceeded $3500.
