Had first LASIK appointment today to determine eligibility. I’m eligible, but still on the fence. Has anyone gotten LASIK and had regrets or complications? Did your up close vision suffer as a result? Really want this, but nervous about it. 🫣

Today is the most anticipated Apple event in recent memory for me. As a Mac person through and through, I could not be more excited. For me the Mac is my favorite Apple product line by far.

The iPhone X is the best iPhone, and thus, best smartphone ever. Come at me. You can nitpick anything, but at the end of the day, you know it’s the best. Review coming soon.

It’s been 48 hours of Apple Watch Ultra usage, and I still have 17% battery. The last time it was fully charged was just before 6:00pm on Saturday. I’ve used the watch a lot during that time for music, apps, sleep tracking, even YouTube. No Low Power Mode either. I’m impressed.

I’d take a cybertruck any day over the same ol’ same ol’ tired cookie cutter designs we’ve had since I don’t know when. Yeah, it’s not entering any beauty pageants, but it’s a...truck. Anyway, this is exactly the reaction that Tesla wants. The more polarizing the better 🤷♂️

’s take on these DRM annoyances. This probably isn’t something that affects most people [read: those smart enough to not upgrade with every new hardware release], but it’s still super-annoying and antiquated.

Shoutout to the Final Cut Pro X team at Apple. This latest version is the most rock-solid release in years. It’s so fast and stable, and the constant crashing that I've been complaining about when wokring with audio has ceased. Thank you!

Apple wants $279 to replace my bricked, out-of-warranty HomePod. Tough pill to swallow for a device that’s just sat in the same spot, untouched, for nearly five years. Mulling it over because it sounds so much better than the HomePod mini.

It’s been months, and every time I click “System Settings” in macOS I just wish it looked and worked like the old System Preferences. Is it just me who still feels this way? Rarely has it been this hard to adapt to a change…

After finally spending time with both the iPhone 14 Pro Max (Deep Purple) and iPhone 14 Pro (Space Black), I think that the Space Black 14 Pro is the best looking iPhone of all time imo, even besting the previous best black iPhone 5, and original iPhone 2G.

Mac Studio finally arrived! First impression: it’s not very sleek or pretty, which is odd for an Apple product…but this is what we’ve been asking for, right? 🤷♂️ I have a lot of thoughts about this…

I like the return of the battery percentage in beta 5, but I wish it was designed in such a way that it retained the visual interpretation along with the numerical value. Seems like I have full battery even though number says otherwise. Might be hard to pull off legibly, though.

Definitely the best, worst mouse ever. As bad as it is ergonomically, and as nonsensical as the Lightning port placement is, I can never go back. The gestures are just *too* good.
