Dehydrating habaneros

1 big thing: Fake sugar’s real risks

Not new news. I use mostly honey.

Everything else

Memories

Rewatching the movie Traffic from 2000. It stand up to time.

Offer letter signed. 16 days left as a manager. Been a heck of a run. Now to the other side of the tracks as a union employee.

Yep

Today Is the Launch of Max, and It Sucks Even More Than I Thought It Would

I’ve been using the MB app to browse Mastodon, but the Ivory app is so nice, I have both open now.

HBO Max officially now ‘Max,’ abandons native tvOS video player and Apple TV ‘Up Next’

More bad news from an already questionable launch

the Glass app looks interesting, but I don’t need it. Not a photographer, between MB and Mastodon, that’s enough

Just read an extensive conversation on app subscriptions. I not pro or con. I make a decision per app. I’ve gone back to stock apple apps when I felt the price was too much for my wallet. There’s few devs that I really like and pay for whatever they make. Though I like the setapp model.

My two favorite knives. One German one Japanese. Just went through my sharpening routine. I use 3 whetstones. 1000, 3000 and 10,000 grit. The 10k is a polishing stone for extremely sharp edges like a Japanese fish knife.

in 2015 I managed an Apple and Bose reseller, we were all certified by Apple, my Service manager had worked for Apple back in Philly. I was not fully certified in service, but would open up Macs and slide them down to my tech. These iMacs were fun to open up. Removing a screen the first is scary.

Nice to THFC lose and drop out of the Europa zone.

Up the Arsenal

Andy Rourke was the other melodic genius in the Smiths: spry, funky and masterful

Over the past few weeks I’ve hit a wall. After 40 years, I don’t want to be a manager anymore. I don’t want to deal with ordering, cost control, labor cost, theoreticals, inventory, employee call outs, scheduling, any of it. to that end, I’m going to be the lead dinner cook at a resort. My primary worry will be the nightly dinner special.

Apple Music and Apple TV Services Currently Down [Updated]

I knew it. Just used the Roku and Amazon Music

Guess I should get comfortable
