I’ve resumed normal Apple Watching. You may stand down from red alert.

I am not wearing my Apple Watch today.
You may now panic.
I was mildly annoyed this afternoon when my son and I went to the pharmacy to get flu shots, he got a super hero bandage. I was given a plane beige one.
Dads need cheering up after being poked too.
Me: Should I order this on Amazon or just go buy it in a store?
Amazon: Order in the next 53 minutes and receive it on Monday!
Me: Oh that’ll be good. Here’s my money.
Amazon: Thanks … You’ll receive this on Tuesday.
Me: 😠
Just discovered Halide, wow. itunes.apple.com/us/app/halide-…

Great commentary on how push notifications are broken – it’s a measurable stress reduction when I take control and start turning them off on my devices, but it’s an ongoing battle magenta.as/push-notificat…
I’m not totally there yet, but Mojave dark mode is kind of growing on me.

Anyone know if there are any massive objects out in space space headed towards the planet soon?

Conference organizers, take note of the visibility of names and social media handles on the #MSignite badges. This is good.
Not everyone has 20/15 vision like me to casually read a 10pt font around flopping around someone’s midsection from 7ft away.

VMware Fusion 11 is here! blogs.vmware.com/teamfusion/201…
Played around with a XS Max for a bit during lunch. It’s, huge, yet not as unmanageable as I’d expected.

Anyone else remember when #FollowFriday was a thing?
There are many ways to be “the guy” (or gal) and sometimes it’s just showing up and doing the work.

I usually opt for self checkout lanes because I don’t want someone else to judge me for being a well off, 34 year old adult, who still likes to eat Pizza Rolls.

So, I reverted my Mac back to High Sierra today, and will likely hang out there until Mojave.1 or so.

Happy ESXi 5.5 End of General Support Day! 🎂
Did “Raise to Speak” that was announced at WWDC for watchOS 5 get cut?
I remember them showing the ability to not have to say “Hey Siri” to the watch.
Better Blocker by Ind.ie has updated with a newer, simpler interface and support for iOS 12 — this is by far the nicest content blocker on iOS. itunes.apple.com/us/app/better-…
In progress: encrypted local backup of iPhone, restore to iOS 12 GM. Just to shake out any crufty beta upgrade stuffs.
Probably not necessary, but it makes me feel better about myself.
Bring on the iOS 12 app updates!

Best wishes to all those who’ll still be up in three hours ordering their iPhone XS and Apple Watch. I’ll be with you in spirit, but physically, you know… sleeping.

Uh oh. I’m looking at mechanical watches again.

Similarly, I lived at our old house for 9 years and could barely get our neighbors to talk with us. Maybe 12 interactions total.
In less than 9 months at new place, we’ve already had cross-family BBQs and hang outside in the evenings just shooting the shit multiple times a week.

I can text back and forth daily with people I have never actually met in person and share intimate life details with them.
Yet people I meet in person (and have good rapport with) will ignore my attempts to communicate outside of prescribed social interactions.
Is it me?

Making real life friends as an adult is odd.
