Ever since getting the #Apple #iPhone 15 Pro last year, I made myself a rule to never buy a device with a lightning port again.

So I am begging Apple to please update the AirPods Max and the Apple Magic Keyboard/Trackpad. 🙏

@mpirnat Oh jeez, yeah, I'm too scared to try to mod any Apple product. I know I would screw it up. 😅

I usually don't like widget UI, but with some care, this is starting to look nice!

@dimillian Unsolicited feedback: I think it needs either lines between the posts or more spacing. Right now the posts feel a little difficult to differentiate because they are evenly spaced.

@mackuba Oh boy. People will definitely react to this maturely and rationally. 😂

What is typical Mastodon etiquette like re: boosts vs. likes?

I’m typically a liker, but it seems like folks on Mastodon boost posts way more often than they like them.

@renwillis Amazing game. I was honestly surprised how much I enjoyed it. It’s been a long while since I played a JRPG.

@rileytestut Any chance of a GameCube emulator coming to @delta? No idea of that is technically feasible or not, but it would be incredible to play Windwaker on my phone. 😳

Finally, after years of pontification and waffling, I bought a pair of AirPods Prod.

…and boy they do not want to stay in my ears. ☹️

Any tips (no pun intended), friends?

@acdha Thanks for the heads up! Have you tried the Comply ones? I’m curious if they affect sound quality or noise canceling.

🤷 I would take your Tailwind CSS takedown piece more seriously if your blog weren't shilling something like your "perfect" web framework, CSS book, or paid course. We should come up with bingo cards for this stuff.

✨ Use the CSS framework, un-framework, or don't use a framework if that sparks joy.

🦄 There are no unicorn CSS solutions out there that solve everyone's problems. Vanilla CSS is good. Tailwind CSS is good. Your homegrown, hybrid, atomic solution is good, too.

@webology I could not agree with this more. Why does everything have to devolve into teams? Just use whichever tool you want, people.

Inspired by a thing I saw on Reddit earlier today, I’m going to try listening to more complete albums this year. Maybe daily? We’ll see how it shakes out.

I’m starting off with the 2019 mix of Abbey Road by The Beatles: https://songwhip.com/the-beatles/abbey-road-2019-mix

1/366

@grantmc@techhub.social avatar

@mpirnat Good album, but like 4 songs too long. Just needed to remove some of the weaker tracks and I think it would flow a lot better.

There There and Wolf at the Door are brilliant, IMO.

grantmc,
@grantmc@techhub.social avatar

@mpirnat Not sure if you take suggestions, but the new Vampire Weekend album is so good. I’ve never really listened to them before, but the songwriting and production really blew me away.

Happy 3.12 day! There are a lot of improvements, but my favorite is the arrival of itertools.batched(iterable, n):

> Batch data from the iterable into tuples of length n. The last batch may be shorter than n.

Such a useful function!

docs: https://docs.python.org/3.12/library/itertools.html#itertools.batched

@xavdid This is a function I end up writing myself in all of my projects.😄 Glad to see they added it to the standard lib!

@ChanceHMiller @chadmobley With AppleCare?

I'm wondering if AppleCare would be a good "case" instead of using a physical case. I love the feel of this phone in my hand, but I'm too chicken to go without a case. 😅

FineWoven...aka velvet-y denim? I was optimistic about these but I now think they suck.

In boxes: FineWoven cases for iPhone 15 Pro Max in taupe and pacific blue. MagSafe wallet in mulberry and taupe.

@ChanceHMiller So glad I picked a third party case. I always went with an Apple leather case but I’m yet to see a positive review of these new cases.

Eleanor was born September 10, 2023. Mom and baby are doing great!

@mpirnat Thank you!

Also, that is great. What a coincidence.

People who own AirPods Max: do you all like them?

I'd love to own regular AirPods Pros but I've never found a single pair of earbuds that will stay in my ear (without an over-ear portion, like the excellent Powerbeats Pros).

grantmc,
@grantmc@techhub.social avatar

@mpirnat I'm back to thinking about this again, Mike. 😅 I never bought anything.

Does the lack of USB-C annoy you? I'm a little hesitant to get a new thing that uses Lightning, because it seems like Apple is finally making the transition with iPhones this year.

Also, is the battery life okay for you? I read you have to put them in their bra case after each use to turn them off, which seems a little silly to me.

I did try some at the Apple store a few days ago and thought they sounded great, and they feel super premium.

grantmc,
@grantmc@techhub.social avatar

@mpirnat I've gotten so used to the automatic switching you get from the H1/H2 chips (in my Powerbeats Pros) that I feel like I can't go back to any regular bluetooth headphones.

grantmc,
@grantmc@techhub.social avatar

@mpirnat Thats all great. I’m glad to hear the battery isn’t a huge issue.

Maybe Postpone could hook me up with a pair…
