Have dropped my phone twice in the first two hours of my day. I sincerely hope this is not a trend.


In Notes on Micro.blog, is each note an entity unto itself, or can can there be links from one note to another? @help Asking because I don’t find anything that speaks to this before I launch into yet another project.


Re-doing the Re-do. Experimenting with Obsidian, today. Trying so hard to reduce dependency on platforms, but struggling with the correct paths forward. Apple Notes in a web-browser is slow. Keeping notes all over the place is broken. I’m struggling as are many who are looking for the one right way.


Feeling a little Willy Wonka, today. I blame Label. #ACNH


When I change to a standing desk, I’m more apt to start walking when I’m ruminating. No destination in particular, but I have to pick one when I notice. Sitting in a cube farm at work, the behavior is not invisible.


I occasionally wish that “Handedness” was a preference setting I could modify in iOS accomodations #apple

I’m a lefty (how sinister!) and some apps are designed for folks holding a device differently than I do.


Geek problems: I’ve tried a new keyboard that I love and now I want keyboards like it everywhere.

I have plenty of keyboards. Good ones.

It’s just that I have a new preference.


Very sad to learn Summit Brewing is in foreclosure talks. I suppose an international concern will buy the naming rights and produce something and call it Summit, after this.


Once upon a time, I was given a first gen iPad with cellular. That thing quickly became one of my favorite tech devices and I carried it with me pretty much everywhere for no good reason. Ever since then, I’ve wanted an iPad that had the same capabilities as an iPhone.

I was super excited to get an iPhone 6+, because I thought certainly the larger screen meant apps more like the iPad. But, no. All the exact same stuff over some extra pixels.

I was also super excited to get an Apple Watch. I’ve worn one every day since Series 4. I opted in for Wi-Fi and Cellular. Once again, I had hoped to ditch the phone. Again, I was disappointed to learn that the watch can’t do much on it’s own and is effectively an accessory and secondary screen for the phone.

I like the unfolded form factor of the new iPhone Duo, I like the ability to use a stylus on a phone screen, finally. I like the screen size. I like that it has window management.

But honestly, I hate that it folds.

I dunno. I feel like I should be more grateful that this combination of features exists at all. If I have the opportunity, I will probably get an iPhone Duo.

But I’d really like an iPad Pro that will allow voice calls (I carry AirPods Pro) and allow me to pair my watch.

I had really hoped more for phone features in an iPad, but the iPad features in a phone is compelling. I won’t be able to swing a gen 1 or 2 from a price standpoint, but if the reviews remain positive, iPhone Duo could condense my daily carry.
