Fall is finally here. After our youngest’s major fall activity ended, we are happily diving into a less-stressful remainder of the season.
We keep plugging away. With work, Pika is still growing, but I’d like it to grow a tad more per month. Let’s go potential bloggers, get off the socials!
We’re finding that we’re at an age where we may finally need to 100% buckle down on our nutrition and exercise habits. No more vacillating between good behavior and bad. At least that’s what the annual checkup test results are telling us.
How do you successfully make permanent change on these lines? I have my own ideas on the nutrition side. Exercise, for me, feels like it is bound to backslide at some point.
Oh, this is fun: (not) solitaire. I also recently ran into Solitaire Alone Together, which is also nice. What timing!
Ever since Trump was re-elected, each email I get from the social security administration (every few months) is pure bootlicking, "The great president Trump introduced the greatest change in the history of mankind!" etc.
They auto-created accounts for 70 million kids! I’m so old that I remember people throwing a fit when Apple downloaded U2 songs to their phone without their consent.
The Arc browser is going away (archive) and I’m sad. Arc worked just how I wanted and I was fine with it never really changing for the duration. But money needs made, and AI needs fed. I was going to try Crest, but I still refuse to upgrade to the latest macOS and it doesn’t support macOS Sequoia.
So I’m four hours into a Helium experiment. So far it’s pretty nice! I don’t know that it serves pages any faster, but the workings of the software itself seem quite fast! I think the biggest thing I’m going to miss is Little Arc.
If Helium doesn’t work out, I’ll probably give Orion a try before falling back to Safari.
They’re classics for a reason:
