“In ordinary life, if somebody consistently exaggerates or lies to you, you soon discount everything they say.” — Sadly, this part has been solidly disproven.

There are those who sing “I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo,” and those who claim to be “the opposite of weird.”

I remember when Al Gore was the climate VP.

Nah. Everyone knew everyone back then, and my uncle loves sharing his stories. Basically all he did was tell that then-eight year old story, which still holds up.

My uncle was in that story. Decades ago, he told his boss a program would stop working in eight years (8-bit limitation, yeah, that long ago). His boss told him to ship it because they weren’t going to be there in eight years. Sure enough, they weren’t. Eight years later, their IT guy contacted my uncle because he couldn’t figure out why it stopped working, and my uncle showed him the math.

They should be mad. Biden stands down with a perfect 1-0 record of defeating Trump with no chance of rematch.

First, convicted in court? Adultery is not a crime. Second, this alleged billionaire bathed in the attention of his famous affair. He posed for photos with Marla. It was on all the tabloid covers and entertainment news. More importantly, Tiffany was born two months before his divorce was final. His affair didn’t get less confirmed over time, but it clearly is less remembered.

I also would not hire a white man to play the new Psylocke. No context quotes mean we get to insert our own, right?

Accused adulterer? He cheated on his first wife with the woman who became his second wife. He is a known adulterer. This is public knowledge.

Do you really need CarPlay? I’ve been relying on phone mounts in my car for years. Now with MagSafe, I stick my iPhone on and stream audio over Bluetooth, no plug/unplug. Aside from that, viewing navigation on my iPhone allows me to move around the map so I can see what turns are coming up. The CarPlay decks I’ve seen don’t allow moving around the map on screen and only show text directions on iPhone. For me, stick-and-go is a better and seamless experience.

If you have any interest in this route, I highly recommend the Nite Ize Steelie system for mounting. Their MagSafe system works with Apple’s MagSafe charger (or without if you don’t need constant charging) with a variety of mounting options.

They’ve done studies: 48% of the time, it works every time.

 

For my first post, I’m sharing this utility shortcut that lets me build shortcuts that can run on all my Apple devices but vibrate only when run on iPhone. I find it most useful for my HomeKit shortcuts. It also has an option for multiple vibrations.
