Sharing IOS Reminder Lists — My wife uses two kinds of Notes. One of them is the IOS Notes App and the other is old-fashioned Post-It Notes ®. Both of them cause confusion and grief for her and for me. The little colored slips of paper end up lost somewhere in her purse. The IOS…

Though honestly, they both suck — I became quite annoyed recently because my wife wanted a particular bottle of Dill Weed, specifically that sold under the Lighthouse brand. No, I was not annoyed with my wife. Well, a little annoyed, because I’m not sure if it’s Dillweed, Dill Weed, or just Dill, and is the capitalization…

Apple TV’s “Extrapolations” says it all in the title — Extrapolations review - even Meryl Streep can't save this convoluted eco drama 'm not too sure where to begin with Extrapolations, Apple TV+'s star-studded anthology series about the possible impact…www.theguardian.com Even Meryl Streep can’t save it?

According to what I have read, it’s Tony Stubblebine’s fault, or maybe it’s ChatGPT, or who knows what caused it, but views are down, money is shrinking, and everything is wrong, wrong, wrong. My…

I’m surprised by how much I am using this — I wasn’t very excited by Apple’s new Freeform app at first.

Apple only vaguely has mentioned this, but it works beautifully — Recently I had to fill out a form for a service I wanted. At this point of website development, I expected to do that online, happily typing in the requested information and submitting it. To my surprise, the site offered a “printable form” instead. Sheesh!
