A response to your question about how the XL is doing:

It is by far the most reliable and most capable printer I have ever used. I got one of the early 5 tool units and while there were things to work out, they have all been worked out.

I am completely satisfied the the printer

This is not a “win”

Siri on iOS v18.1 knows what is

I don’t think you understand how long the battery does last on the latest generation watches. I wear it all day and all night, and I track my sleep, and there’s usually at least 20% remaining. I only charge in the morning while getting ready for work. It doesn’t last a week, but it’s totally fine for what I use it for.

And?

Set a wake up alarm and your phone will automatically enter do not disturb mode for the 8 hours before your alarm

but they turned away from individuals and towards b2b

I don’t agree. 1Password is exactly the application my family and I need and works extremely well. I don’t understand how you think they turned away from individuals. Adding b2b features doesn’t in any way take away from what the app provides for me. IMO the cost is pretty reasonable and the features and enhancements just keep coming. It was great when I started using it over 10 years ago, and now it is unrecognizable from then (in a good way).

I just saw a pedestrian get hit by a person on a bike and end up with a concussion. Bicyclists don’t give a fuck about others

To be fair he opens everything in seconds.

I have recently replaced two Schlage Zwave locks with the Encode locks because have trouble with zwave at the front door. The zwave locks perform well and the back door lock always worked 100% of the time, integrated well with home assistant and HomeKit bridge.

The encode locks are more attractive and the lock mechanism is nicer and a lot quieter than the locks I replaced.

It feels like this comment is supposed to be negative/sarcastic, but Apple Maps is actually good, so I am not sure where you’re going with this.

I was completely prepared to believe that this was real.

For me, it’s not great. The web interface and apps I’ve used are kind of bad, there isn’t a lot of content in the topics I’m interested in. I’m mainly here because I refuse to go back to Reddit.
