Of course, I’m in the southern hemisphere this week.

I’m hoping for a neutral-colored mid-frame, like grey. I’d like to put a leather strap on it for work, and then switch to a loud colorful strap on the weekends. Colored midframe plus leather might look weird.

My wife proudly didn’t even bother to charge hers when she received it. That’s been 11 days ago now, and it’s at 24 percent. 👏

They reused a lot of new old stock from the Pebble 2, particularly the plastic enclosures. I think that once those are gone, they’re gone. I am hoping for a follow up black-and-white watch, but we’ll see.

In 2010, I bought 20 iMac G3's for $20. I gave most of them away as gag gifts, but kept one and still have it today.

It lived on the kitchen counter for about a year for recipes and music.

3D printed replacement exist now, and are apparently quite good! You just lose water resistance. I wish I’d kept my Pebble 2’s to try replacement buttons on.

Your Lucent WaveLAN card might be one!

I wonder if any 802.11 prime cards exist.

Also, the subcarrier spacing for S1G is teeny tiny!

I did a similar writeup a little while ago: www.potatofi.com/posts/mobiles/

As wasteful and ridiculous as I think green lawns are, hear me out: In Idaho (where I am from), our rivers feed canal systems, which neighborhoods pump from. House water and pressurized neighborhood irrigation water are separated. Plus, tuning pop-up nozzles is a joyful middle-age summer activity.

I’m a diehard iPhone 13 mini user. I’ve received tons of questions, “Are you getting an iPhone Air!? It’s small, right!?” No! I want a small phone on the X and Y axis! The Z axis could be even thicker to get a bigger battery! WHY IS THIS SO HARD!?

Sorry to hear! Twice now, in the evenings after a day of work, I've caught myself moving my phone away from my face. 🫠

You could also say, "people crank up UI scaling". Doing some work in Finder, I just went to my display settings to switch from "Default" to "More Space" and was disappointed to see that I am already using "More Space".

There’s an unrelated event (movie set) right in front of Oodi. Go North slightly behind the trucks. Constructive criticism here - Democrats Finland did not choose a very visible spot to set up but I’m still glad they’re here.

The “1” key doesn’t sit correctly in the keypad, which makes me wonder if this was returned or binned due to a defect, and part of why it survived until 2025.
