Looking for a 2021 or 2022 12.9” iPad Pro with Mini-LED (i.e., M1 or M2) with at least 256 GB of RAM, Wi-Fi is all that's needed (cell is ok, but not at a big premium as it won't be activated).

Anyone have such an item they are interested in selling?

The only time I’ve ever been what one could call a “responsible” consumer in my entire life was my refusal to buy an Apple Vision Pro. https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/27/24142810/apple-vision-pro-ebay-low-prices

I was unaware that some people pronounced Nike like nyk without the E sound at the end. Like some people say Porsche without the E.

HomeKit question: my smart thermostat lost its Wi-Fi connection. When I try to add it back after deleting it from Home, I'm told it's still IN Home. Thoughts? I have rebooted my Apple TV. Some other HomeKit devices also seem lost while others are working. Is there a way to reset the HomeKit hub other than restarting the Apple TV that would clear the state problem?

Did Apple really fall out with Jon Stewart over editorial content choices? It's a really bad look for Apple, if so. I think their TV shows should have creative freedom from the political priorities of Apple as a whole. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/19/business/media/jon-stewart-the-problem-ends.html

Here’s my proposed iPad lineup simplification.

I recently had a dislocated shoulder, which is unfortunately a chronic issue for me. This time I went to an orthopedic doctor who chastised me that I should be wearing a sling. After wearing the sling, my back and neck were all janked. It was a mess. Now I'm sling-free and everything is getting better.

Listening to the podcast about cases. Has anyone done to the old leather cases, what people are doing to the fine woven cases?

I have an old leather case that was damaged by olive oil in a restaurant permanently. I also just ran a fingernail across it and the mark is terrible.

The fine woven case seem to be being held to a much higher standard than the leather cases. People are treating them as solid plastic cases.

Playing around with Safari Web Apps on the macOS Sonoma beta. It would be super cool if there were an advanced capability to add injected JavaScript to the resulting web page. I'd like to fine tune the interface of some sites. Looking at you, Wordle...
