5. Waiting on Hermes.com to update to see what leahter bands are offered 6. Inclined to get SS Natural + Link Bracelet 7. Link bracelet sees a price decrease for the first time since 2014's release (I still wear my SB SS Link Bracelet that's over 10 years old) 8. Hermes S10 appears to be …
Quick Takeaways: 1. I was expecting AirPods Max improvements. Today's update is not sufficient. Saves me $550 2. AirPods Pro 2 continues to be improved. Saves me $250 3. No price increase so the iPhone 16 Pro Max 1TB will be $1599 (same as the 14 and 15 cost me) 4. Apple Watch Edition stays …
I think I’m finally starting to look “old” like me but older? Does that make sense? It’s not the high contrast of this fun work-supplied “trading card” celebrating our newly opened sports stadium but more that like “wow, yeah my face is looking older like man-face and less boy-face” I’ve started …

From the New York Times, "Theft of copyrighted material is not something content owners need to opt out of.” It's so simple. Big-tech is stealing copyright content and treating the work of artists like a creative commons license.
…big posting day today, sorry. I got my 6th or 7th Covid shot today. Heather and Matilda are up in New Hampshire with Covid. I so far to my knowledge have never had it and even though I swore last year would be my last time getting a vaccine, I don’t want what they have so I’m being proactive. …
As a millennial, I somehow managed to go to the gym, drug store and Best Buy without a cell phone to navigate and I made it safely! Go me!
@lakelady I don’t have a Lightning to Lightning adapter so I didn’t try that. I thought they’d only go over ad-hoc WiFi?
The iPhone restoration process of downloading songs, photos, apps had stalled. Putting it in my beer freezer (temp controlled to 33F) has greatly helped. We’re still in a day when “put it in the freezer” actually helps things move faster.
On one hand, iPhone to iPhone transfer is nicer than iCloud because everything gets moved over BUT With a 1TB iPhone with 800GB of data, this “time remaining 8 hours" is pretty brutal. I should have done iCloud restore then let the iPhone download photos/videos/music overnight. It is moving but …
I'm also thinking of going Hermes for my AWX but we'll have to see what the options are. If Apple introduces a new band connection, my upgrade decision will be put to the test because I have a LOT of bands including a new beautiful yellow Hermes band I bought in Paris
Apple Watch Ultra to Ultra 3 --- I think what's most likely to happen in my case is that I purchase an Apple Watch X for daily wear and keep my Ultra for long hiking especially if the AWX is thinner with a similar sized 2 inch screen. The Ultra is amazing and with AWU3 rumors being that the …
Pre-Airpods, I ran Shure or Etymotic earphones that had expandable foam. This was superior because you compress the foam and insert it into your ear. There are aftermarket options for AirPods but I want Apple to offer this in the box or maybe a flanged design for better fitment. They're less …
AirPods Pro 2 - I'm still on the Lightning enabled kit while my wife has the USB-C version. I won't upgrade just for USB-C but as far as improvements, I just want more fit-tips. The S/M/L offered today has fitment issues for me primarily because of a lack of a certain gene. So, I don't …
AirPods Max - My pair are still working although having some issues related to noise cancelling. They're out of warranty but I use them daily and they have developed the well-documented "crackle" when you move your head around in ANC mode. I'm not going to spend $500 just to get …
First day back at work after 12 weeks. I missed a lot.
After being off work for 12 weeks, I’m finally back at it tomorrow. It was a great break. I’m also ready to get back to work.
This was a great #IronButt ride. Glad it got certified and now I really want to do an even longer one!
Hugely productive day. 60,000 mile service on the ram done myself, dirt bike dropped off for a warranty fix on the clutch slave. Haircut, groceries, all laundry, cleaned house, ran with the dog, picked up 7 serialized firearm parts waiting for me while I was away and started cleaning out all of the …
Got back from Paris Thursday at 8pm. Friday at noon I drove 12 hours back to charlotte arriving Saturday at 9am since I slept in the truck. Ran a lot of errands and now soccer.
Back in charlotte. Looks like my soccer team is #1 in the league. I missed 8 games but I have excuses. I was in Alaska, Yukon, arctic circle, glacier, New Hampshire, Quebec, France and Belgium for 3 months.
Leaving New Hampshire heading back south. It was a great summer but now itâs time to get back to work.
Made it.
@lakelady I’m so sorry I didn’t reply sooner. 1Password is around $55 a year and for the last few months, I’ve had more technical issues with it asking me to enter a password and not auto-filling or saving new passwords. It’s just causing significant friction which shouldn’t happen on a paid …
This feels like gloating but I still can’t get over it. My baby is 9 months old and flying to Paris with Sky Priority status in the premium cabin. I was born on a dairy farm in Florida and in a single-wide trailer. My family couldn’t afford college for me yet I persevered. We’re not rich but damn, …
