Happy new year one and all! May 2024 be one of joy and fulfilled dreams!

In the middle of reading something on my iPad and it just turned off. It was plugged in and charging and now won’t turn on or show any sign of life… with my Mac so ancient that it only works plugged in I now have no reliable personal computer bigger than my iPhone.

Ventured onto Threads briefly. My word, it’s as bad as Twitter. Full of ill informed, uneducated, antisemitic posts. The few people that are capable of careful considered thoughts are drowned out. Social media has a lot to answer for.

Managed to follow @mosseri@threads.net on Micro.blog… let’s see how this goes.

Currently reading: Answering Jihad by Nabeel Qureshi 📚🎧

Finished reading: Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus by Nabeel Qureshi 📚🎧

Wonderfully told and fascinating to listen to the journey of Nabeel. I only wish I could’ve heard him tell it in person.

Considering a switch to iA Writer for my writing. Something doesn’t feel right with Ulysses or Obsidian these days, I want something with the right balance of simplicity and features.

So how do we send a mention to someone on Mastodon from Micro.blog?

I think my coffee station has reached peak Jonny Ive… ☕️

I really don’t get this insistence by some Apple bloggers on referring to the iPhone 15 lineup as iPhones 15. It’s iPhone 15s, just as it’s MacBook Pros and not MacBooks Pro.
