Freelance writer, podcaster, blogger, author, lots of opinions about technology. Adorkable. I dream in HD.
Me: Siri, turn on the bedroom light.

HomePod: Pause in the living room?

Google’s AI has some serious lifting to do to get Siri up to a reasonably functional level. Apple really squandered its voice assistant lead. #apple #ai #fail

Thinking about the medal ceremony at the end of Star Wars. Kleya and Val must feel pretty awesome seeing some rando farm boy and a space pirate show up at the last minute and get all the recognition. #starwars #andor

I miss SoundJam. Listening to my own music library used to be a much better experience. #apple #music

Marketing tip: If you're sending personalized mass emails be sure you have the names right. This company lost credibility before I even got to their pitch. #marketing #fail

Just a reminder to acknowledge the little things in life that bring us joy. One of mine is this vintage Pilot Elite fountain pen I bought last fall at the Colorado Pen Show. It's a delight to use, and makes me smile. We can all use more smiles! #fountainpen #writing #joy

25 years later and people are still pumping out “Steve Jobs never would’ve” stories. It’s a flimsy cover for “I don’t like what Apple is doing.” Naming Jobs is not a defense of your position; it’s a lazy tool for complaining about the company. #apple #writing

It’s kind of crazy when 13F makes Colorado the warm place in the US.

New Ep: Apple announced its Creator Studio app bundle subscription, and MacPaw is shuttering its alternative iOS app store in the EU. That gives @geektells.bsky.social and @jgamet.bsky.social plenty to talk about. Plus, what's interesting about the number 697?

I haven't bothered to look, but I bet someone has already done a Starfleet Academy/Saved By the Bell comparison.

I was today years old when I found out the Melania movie is a real thing, and not satire news. I can't imagine a world where this documentary makes money.

I feel like I'm always on the hunt for the right email client and web browser. Right now, MailMaven seems to best meet my needs for email. My primary web browser is currently Helium. I'm open to suggestions for Mac-compatible bloat- and AI-free Chromium-based browsers.

Jeff's show-and-tell days are always the best. And, the boy sure loves his outlining.

Someone needs to remind this administration that Orwell’s 1984 is a cautionary tale and not a how-to guide.

“She got what she deserved” is patently wrong. Renee Good deserved due process. When the government took that right from her in Minneapolis they took it from all of us.

It’s kind of crazy how often I get Republican political text messages from Georgia. Pretty sure Colorado residents can’t vote in Georgia elections. #sms #fail

There’s a lot of crazy stuff going down in the world right now, so here’s a flower for you to enjoy. This is from a plant my dad left in my care. I take this responsibility very seriously. #plant #flower #takeabreak

The top 10% of richest Americans own 87% of stocks.

The top 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.

It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.
