T-Mobile got me going, eventually. Grateful for the work of three individuals. Trick was to use the eSIM. Things worked great once sorted. Enrolled in beta, updated to 15.1, and restoring from previous device at the moment

It has become clear during the process of transferring devices and service how much the Apple Watch is dependent on an iPhone. It’s not unto itself and moving from one device to another is an effective wipe and re-load.

Received new iPhone, but will be interesting to see if T-Mobile can get service to it. They didn’t ship a new SIM, and swapping doesn’t work. I tried 5 times to activate service via the web site and I’m more than an hour into hold time.

Silly, silly me. I assumed that if I signed into iCloud via the Contacts app, I would only be synchronizing contacts. This is not actually the case. I do not have time for this but I’m going along for the ride. Long story. Getting longer.

Donating my 14th pint #bloodselfie

I am triggered with song whenever I encounter the place name Gitche Gumee. It’s about a legend that lives on, from the Chippewa on down…

Team meetings sometimes are frustrating. I’ve noticed, though, that sometimes the frustration is with myself, learning that I had preconceptions that were wrong, or that there are many more valid perspectives than I had been considering.

Upside? I get to learn from this.

Sweet Merciful…

Every single time Sommer’s MacBook tries to update, it becomes very unhappy. For a good hour I hould not get it to boot. Checked volumes in Target Disk Mode, Command-Option-P-R, booting to the recovery image never worked. Then, it booted and I logged in. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Straw hat at sunset

When the power strip is shaped in such a way that it was possible (in the dark, under my desk) to plug in only one side of a power plug, with the second prong in open air. This lead to a dead battery and much disappointment.
