My weight loss has plateaued for a week so I did a modified fast today. I’ve had about 3oz of ham and some sips of Sated Keto shake and lots of water, I feel fine. Been about 21 hours.
Will eat something shortly.

Was just reminded, on early MacOS betas I have to return to a few stock apps until the Devs catch up.

IOS 14 installed, that’s the quickest I’ve ever been able to get a Beta, being in Hawaii - last US time zone and all.
Now to try WatchOS

I use primarily Mac and iPhone. Never worked iPad into any workflow, still a consumption device for me. Never got an Apple Pencil, my handwriting is chicken scratch and I can’t draw. Love my 12" Macbook as 2nd Mac, maybe that form factor is my next Mac when 2015 13" MBP dies.

One frustration I’ve had with AirPod is moving between devices, hopefully their fix works. I use wired earpods most often as I just move the plug and and it works

The Hey / Apple kerfuffle
The Hey / Apple controversy sure hit a nerve this week. I’m not a Developer, I’m a Consumer, I know a lot of Devs and have beta tested dozens of apps, at one point I had a whole list in Testflight. Only 3 right now. I’ve lost the desire to do testing, I just want apps to work out of the box.
As a user, I like the simplicity of the app store. I don’t need to enter a CC# every time. I like how I can see all of my subscriptions, manage them in one place and change the credit card if I like.
My wife and I recently reviewed every subscription that we have, it was a hassle going though credit card statements to look for subscriptions not in the app store.
I do think the Apple App tax is a bit onerous and in my world, if my restaurant paid a 30% off the top for each customer, I wouldn’t be very happy. I did have to deal with worker’s comp, unemployment, Social Security tax, rent, utilities, licenses (liquor was big one) and permits and the constantly changing cost of sales and supplies. (Food and Beverage).
We offered free lunch delivery in Hilo. My delivery guy got 30% off the top and free lunch every day, he was independent. The way I looked at it, was the deliver order didn’t take a seat in the restaurant and didn’t take the time of my dining room staff. We did a solid lunch delivery business to medical offices. To me it was gravy sales and getting 70% of the revenue was fine with me, after-all dollars go into the bank not %. 70% of something it better than 100% of nothing.
I don’t know the full economic model of a developer to form a proper opinion, every business has their thing. Just trying to weight in with a brick and mortar perspective.
