My old Boostcharge Pro 3-in-1 MagSafe charger died. 💀

Now looking something to replace it.

Any recommendations?

I want MagSafe setup that supports iPhone’s standby mode. And 3-in-1 because I want to keep my phone/watch/airpods charging setup neat.

@toni do not get that giant 3 in 1 Belkin from the photo. It ruined my old watch. When I looked into the issue I learned it wasn’t that unusual

Now we're up to $2 billion just for 1 of the two stadiums these fucking teams are demanding. https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/03/11/chicago-bears-lakefront-stadium/

The most annoying thing about Apple Music is when the insert fucking music videos at the end of albums.

@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@tim Oh damn. That would drive me crazy too. For Apple so many alums are "Apple Music Addition" with extra videos tacked on and it's so infuriating.

This is one more reason why privacy matters and is something so many accused me of crying wolf about over the last few years. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/11/technology/carmakers-driver-tracking-insurance.html?unlocked_article_code=1.b00.AglG.B6NVaWMBj4Lx&smid=url-share

@ivory is the quote feature available in the iOS version yet? I'm not seeing it.

@chris it’s working for me in iOS.

One day I’ll be able to read again anywhere but in bed.

Today is not that day.

Had a great lunch to end Joy’s birthday week at a neat little spot on the lake in Kenosha.

It’s still amazing to me how much more accessible the water is here than it was to us when we could walk to the Gulf in Florida.

@Jeffro Ha! Good point. It does have a pretty damn nice lakefront today though.

@Jeffro well…. That is the most profound thing I’ve heard this week…

My apologies to my Irish fans. Of course this game starts like this... I'm watching it and cheering for Ireland :/

We're watching 6Nations this morning and rooting for Ireland.

I have no idea at all how this sport works but it's fun to watch this morning.

It should be criminal that Apple devices still require a full profile for encrypted DNS in 2024.

@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

God help me but I'm playing DNS games again. My dad's ISP intercepts requests and it's pretty damn creepy.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@kel We cannot. I've got a few ideas, just want to find something that won't lead to extra tech support on my part.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@bryanruby Seems to be both. Can't change it in the router and, even with me setting some manually in the network settings ATT still intercepted.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@dustinrue I've added 1.1.1.1, for now, to the wifi config under the network yet ATT is still intercepting and showing me their search screen.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@dustinrue Hoping DoH or similar will solve it.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@bryanruby I'm the same, my father is a different story. They told him he couldn't add his own router. I don't know if it's true or not but that part just isn't my battle to fight this weekend.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@dustinrue This would work on my laptop, but not on the devices we have with us, iPad and iPhone.

I'm thinking of just going back to NextDNS. Might be the right answer at this point.

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@dustinrue Yeah. That's what I did... added 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 to the network itself. ATT is still intercepting

chris,
@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@dustinrue As for pihole... Worked great as long as I was at home but I use some of my devices more away from home and my wife needs a much less restrictive profile than anyone else so it just didn't work well for us.

At my dad’s place for what I hope will be a quiet and relaxing weekend.

@jnv We didn't nearly enough when we lived in Florida… then my mom died so we moved back to Chicago.

@chris@mastodon.chriswiegman.com avatar

@jnv For real. I really wish I had been better at that.
