I was worried with all these new services coming up, I’d be paying Apple around $30 every month for stuff. And then I realised I’m already paying them more than that for iCloud storage and Music. And now I’m sad because it’ll probably be $50 a month.
“I have charged my cellphone 3 times in the last week”
2019: “Wow! That’s amazingly long battery life!”
1999: “That’s terrible. You need a new battery!”
This iPhone XR is ruining me with regard to battery life. Just checked my battery percentage and thought “39%!? What’s sucking up power? I only charged this… 38 hours ago. Wow.”
I’ve been using soy milk in my coffees for well over a decade. Cow’s milk taste horrible to me now. Seriously, give a soy latte or flat white a try. It may take a little getting used to, but it’s better for the planet and, therefore, you.

Something big is on fire in Palmerston North
Update: apparently it’s roadworks. They’re laying down tarseal.
I wish I could move iCloud Safari tabs between devices. As in, I have a tab open on my iPhone regarding a Mac app, I want to throw it over to my Mac. Then I can deal with it there when, where it’s relevant, and get it off my phone.
E-scooter injuries as severe as car crashes - study - costing the health system $360,577 in surgery costs. Cue the angry anti-scooter brigade.

Maybe it’s learning another language that’s doing it, but recently the word “their” just looks weird to me. I keep typing it and thinking “Wait, is it their, or should it be thier? They both look wrong.”
Avoid putting plastic into the environment by not using it in the first place. Here are two tins I had a local cafe fill with beans. Plastic used: 0g.
Mars is awful. You almost certainly don’t want to go there.
Building a Marsbase is a Horrible Idea: Let’s do it!
(Probably not).
RE Disney Plus and Star Wars: “Disney Plus will rapidly expand globally, with plans to be in nearly all major regions […] within the next two years.”
So those of us, let’s say at the Galaxy’s Edge, will have to Rebel against the Empire in order to watch these shows before 2021?
Every All Blacks game is free to air on TVNZ. You don’t need the internet to watch the All Blacks play at the world cup. This isn’t a difficult concept to understand.
Terrible NZ internet prompts concerns over how to watch All Blacks at World Cup
If anyone in a good timeline ever happens to read this: hoo boy things can get bad. Really bad. Imagine if the Amazon was intentionally burned down - that bad.
And the Tesla super fans will flood in denying this reality.
Youtube: now close to unwatchable due to the frequency of video hijacking ads.
If you need a parody of Baby Shark by some Kiwi comedians, I’ve got you covered (NSFW).
I thought microplastics would be like mud and silt particles. Which you have knocking around in your cells right now!
Don’t get complacent; “more research is needed fully understand how plastic … works its way through human bodies.”
Keanu Reeves will be in a new Bill and Ted and a new Matrix movie. All he needs now is a new Speed movie (featuring Gigantor?) and the 1990s revival can be complete.
I may be about to crack 1 of the four key ingredients of my home brew - hops. Now I just have to master water chemistry, the correct mixing of malts and other fermentables and yeast (my biggest issue because I do’t have proper temperature control yet).
