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 lifeโฆ 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, itโs 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.blogโฆ letโs see how this goes.
Currently reading: Answering Jihad by Nabeel Qureshi ๐๐ง
Finished reading: Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus by Nabeel Qureshi ๐๐ง
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 doesnโt feel right with Ulysses or Obsidian these days, I want something with the right balance of simplicity and features.

I really donโt get this insistence by some Apple bloggers on referring to the iPhone 15 lineup as iPhones 15. Itโs iPhone 15s, just as itโs MacBook Pros and not MacBooks Pro.
The October Declaration โ British Friends of Israel
Signed. It feels feeble, but Israel holds a special place in my heart. It is not perfect, but one of the most important moments in my life happened there and Jewish people deserve to be safe in their homeland.
When I updated to Sonoma I switched off Alfred and decided to give Spotlight a go. It hasn’t stuck so I’m giving Recast another go.
New ink day! Just as the weather turns cold and autumn truly starts to arrive I have my new autumn pen and ink setup. ๐๏ธ
The Royal Mint has released its designs for a new set of coins, the first since the accession of King Charles. I think they are an outstanding piece of design.
My parents bought me a Travellers Notebook for my birthday and I love it. Feels and smells amazing. ๐๏ธ๐
I stand with Israel ๐ฎ๐ฑ

It’s decided, once Sonoma is released I’m going to give Reminders a real crack at managing my tasks.

I’m already a big fan of stand by mode on the iPhone. I really want it on my iPad now.

I think Iโm going to finally make the move from 1Password to the built in Apple password manager this year.
