Review: Yay AirTag Arrived! … umm, now what?

It’s one of the most bizarre Apple products I’ve ever purchased. The best way I can think of AirTag is that it’s a product you hope you never need. And that’s about it. You buy it, set it up with the now-standard Apple way of pairing and adding new things to your account (that is, …

This Just In: Apple Makes Another Crap-ton of Money

Today Apple Inc. released it’s Second Quarter earnings report, and – wait for it – they made a LOT of money. The work-from-home situation a lot of us find ourselves in combined with the hot-selling iPhone 12 lineup, plus an increase in Services revenue brought more and more bags of cash to Cupertino. I’m far …

Why Apple, Why?

The other title I was considering for this is Wow Apple, Wow! Earlier today, Apple held a ‘Spring Loaded’ event to announce a bunch of new/refreshed products. Some – like Podcasts+ – I don’t really care about. OK, that’s the only thing I don’t care about from today. The rest of it – curse you …

Review: CPLAY2AIR Wireless CarPlay Adapter

For a couple years, I’ve been reading more and more about wireless CarPlay. In general, the less I can have things dependent on wires or cables the better.  Of course, we’re not really talking about going wireless in most instances – Qi charging is just shifting the wire to a stationary object vs. plugging it …

Unexpected ‘Speed’ Run

Well, I didn’t expect that! Lately my running has been pretty sporadic. I always find the change of seasons to be an annoying time to run, especially Winter to Spring. The wind picks up, there’s usually a lot of wet pavement and grass from melting snow, and the temperature fluctuates wildly. Overall, I actually prefer …

The pictures are great, the idea is nonsensical, and the technology behind it is pretty intense. Or so I assume. I really don’t have any idea exactly how this …

Being Proactive

I’m generally pretty laid back. I wouldn’t consider myself lazy, but I suppose I can see how some people may throw that label at me. I don’t think it’s entirely fair – it’s just that with a lot of things, I prefer to take a wait and see approach. You know, if it ain’t broke, …

Jason Sudekis wins Golden Globe for Ted Lasso

How have I never written about Ted Lasso? Now’s not really the time for a deep dive on the show, but I just wanted to say how happy I am that Jason Sudekis won a Golden Globe for “Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series” tonight! If you haven’t watched Ted Lasso, do …

Going to the Dark Side

A few weeks ago I decided to try this whole Intermittent Fasting thing, as part of an overall goal to lose some weight. I decided to go with the 16-8 system (or probably closer to 15-9 due to my slacking with a late night tea). Regardless, this post isn’t entirely about that. Part of the …
