1st gen iPhone SE + watch in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I purchased a used iPhone SE 2 for my son from Amazon for $140. This phone had a brand new battery and the screen and back glass are flawless. I was very impressed.

However, if you love the iPhone SE 1, I think that the iPhone 13 mini would replace it well. You would keep the squared off aesthetic, but gain a lot of usable screen real estate. The latest iPhone SE phones are the same size as an iphone 6, and similar to the mini, but they have lower end features and the round aesthetic. The only deal breaker I see is that the SE phones have touch ID rather than Face ID. Not sure which she would prefer. (I would love to have both!)

California launches digital IDs on iPhone… but without Apple Wallet support in c/[email protected]

The myColorado app is great as it stores a legal ID (except for police interactions???) as well as insurance and vaccine info. Colorado also supports the Apple wallet implementation, which is absolutely useless. The Apple wallet version can only be used at an airport, but when when I tried to use it at DIA the TSA officer just said "no". I think Apple may be the one who is doing it wrong...

  1. Stretch out and ride a stolen scooter where they belong: I-25.

  1. Bring your recently rescued fur baby to a park off-leash and profusely reiterate to every parent that your dog knocks their child down that "he is harmless".

A decade after a disastrous launch, is Apple Maps finally good? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I know I'm a fanboy, but I have been using apple maps since iOS 6 beta and it has been great for me. Maybe I just happened to be in parts of the world where it just worked better. Often when I would find an issue, I would check google, and google had the same issue.

Bobby Flay's Burgers Are Coming to Colorado (www.westword.com)
 

In a quote from the article: "...the city of Denver, known for its culinary vibrancy and food enthusiasts"

Nothing says culinary vibrancy and food enthusiasts like one more burger chain outlet! Now our gourmet food selection finally includes a burger. The mighty burrito and pizza offerings finally have some competition.

Club Dread is my favorite Broken Lizard film. I guess that is my humor, and it is not for everyone.

GM ditching Apple CarPlay has dealers concerned in c/[email protected]

Subscription fees are part of this but I think the direct pipeline to the customer data is a bigger factor.

What password manager do you use ? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I switched from lastpass to 1Password shortly after they sold to logmein or whatever. I have lately been eyeing the whole suite offered by https://proton.me

I would entertain the idea of using Apple keychain, but I am really hooked on password sharing with the family. Have not seen a good implementation from Apple yet, but maybe it is on the way (or I missed it!).

New Install (centennialstate.social)
 

I’m a lowly USG-3P user with a couple 8 port POE switches and 4 APs running my controller off of a RPI4. However, a friend wanted to go all in, so I helped him to spend his money…

I hope to post some more pictures as it goes along. We made some progress that is not shown, but neither of us are experts, nor are we OCD.

One unexpected exciting feature is the built in ad blocker in the UDM-SE, which is quite effective.

Anyone else looking to replace their accessories with USB-C once the got updated? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

Lightning was amazing when it came out, and helped to push USB-C. Still, its time has come. I’m anxious to ditch lightning and then only need usb-C for iphone, iPad, and laptop. Then I can use Apple Watch charger to charge watch and AirPods Pro 2. With some mag safe chargers around the house, I’ll be set.
