I remember my first time seeing someone use a Jabra bluetooth ear piece. 2003 in a college dorm, a girl was walking back and forth but her phone was probably in her hoodie. I was bewildered, wondering why she was talking aloud to herself.

They see me rollin

School areas are 25 mph. Kids from elementary through high school are walking to and from school in my town of ~150,000.

Great take. One of the main reasons I switched to iOS this year after always using Android is Apple’s relatively faster fixes. (Yeah Google is fast with the Pixel, but I’ve got more reasons.)

I don’t blame Apple. I wanted to share this article because some posters who experienced this were lambasted/mocked for claiming their phones overheated.

There's a trick. First, say Hey Siri play spotify [Playlist name / radio]. Siri will start playing it. Now when you open Shortcuts and search your actions for Spotify, it'll be listed temporarily. You can then incorporate that into your Shortcut.

Despite the downvotes, you have a point. Sure, it's only 1 data point for this particular model, and the pressure applied isn't a measured force that's been kept consistent across models. But assuming that applied pressure has been relatively consistent over the years and that Jerry's hand muscles haven't gotten significantly stronger since the 14 series, there's a bit of concern.

Yeah I read a thread on Macrumors, and one person described the steps on how they got it to work, but no one could replicate.

The one little syncing that worked for me was that my MacBook account updated with my new contact photo.

Yeah older iPadOS and IOS are a pain and require iTunes. I would try to setup Wine and installed iTunes.

And it is quite a hill! Pens, nib grinds, inks, papers and notebooks, cleaning/maintenance, penmanship! I feel like Pooh hitting the honey jackpot. It really is a delight writing without applying pressure.

I'm enjoying FF16 and don't regret buying it full price, but it does have its flaws. For these flaws I don't see it winning GOTY.

As I'm getting older, I appreciate storytelling more and more. The FF series has that, and FF16 continues that. The side quests start out meh, but they get better as each one delves into the lore and socioeconomics and politics of this FF world. The combat hasn't grown stale for me. You can adjust difficulty by equipping certain rings, for example one that auto-dodges enemy attacks where possible. I equipped that because I wanted to focus on building combos. I had trouble focusing when the action gets overwhelming (too many enemies, too much visual animation from some of the Eikon powers). It's nifty to be able to customize your experience.

For me, two disappointing things. First, even after the update, there are still some framerate issues. I'm not even picky, but it lagged at several points in the game. And my PS5 is <1 year old. Second, I've picked up a lot of crafting materials but most of it won't get used. There's not much depth to crafting. Equipping those crafted items ups your stats, but doesn't change the appearance of your character. The only change in appearance is your sword.

The story, IMO, has little lightheartedness. Sure there are a few bits of comedy, but it just gets more serious. Sad stuff happens. Prior to FF16 I was playing FF7 Remake, maybe got about 10 hours in. Different tone. FF16 digs into war and how it affects the common folk, especially with the side quests. I'm hooked on the main plot AND the side quests.

I'm liking FF16 such that it's the only game I'm playing at the moment. Typically I juggle a few games to change things up.

As a former guitar player, I spent over half an hour in Tchia playing the ukulele. I didn't get far in the game because I got sidetracked with Judgment. But my favorite part of the game so far was the cultural music. After your review, I'm going to have to get back to it at some point. And Uncharted LL.

Currently playing FF16, I'm about 80% done.

The article states there's no research for it. Doesn't mean it doesn't work. But of course it also doesn't mean it actually works. Everyone may do with that what they will. But it's hard to argue the logic that flossing helps. You can leave bits of food in your gums for bacteria to eat and produce byproducts that degrade your enamel. Or you can remove that food.

But the fact is that there isn't much research is indeed a valid concern, especially when the health/science community tries to say something is good or bad. They need to prove it.
