Got about 80% of the back yard mowed today, now I'm having to deal with the tingly numbness of sciatica. The job would have been impossible if I had to push the mower but this one is a neat self-propelled battery electric job.
I've briefly fiddled with Presenter Overlay for Apple Silicon Macs running Sonoma while sharing their screens in videoconferencing apps. I can see myself using this in my monthly presentations to the Mac User Group over Zoom. The following link is from the Apple Support YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch
Today I learned that Australia has exported 30% of the world’s chickpeas over the last 10 years.
A package arrived today, it elevates the Magic Mouse so it fits the hand better. And incorporates a wireless charging system so when you need to charge the mouse you just place it on top of any MagSafe or Qi charger. Immediately the charge indicator illuminates and Bluetooth is disconnected.
Which means in about 20 hours, Apple’s Scary Fast presentation will include a Magic Mouse that can charge wirelessly.
You only live once - you should try to spend as much time as possible on your computer and phone.
After you die, you won’t have access to them anymore.
A local car accessory store uses a Daihatsu Midget Kei-pickup for advertising. Another company once had such a vehicle set up to advertise its towing business.
It was a fine sunny day, I decided to try doing the 7 km round trip to the dermatology clinic on the mobility scooter. I turned around just after getting halfway there, the battery pack was probably not going to last. I distinctly remember connecting it to the charger after an 8 km outing yesterday but it was unplugged when I started it up today. It seems when I stepped off the thing I'd snagged the cable with my foot and dislodged the connector. I had enough time left to make the appointment time with five minutes to spare by taking the car.
Back in the days of the Roman Empire, the famous Emperor Nero instituted a new game. The players would take those little disks you set your glass on in order to protect the furniture, and see who could get the most distance rolling them across the floor.
They were the first roller coasters. Back in those days, the disks were made of iron, and they would bet on whose disk would roll the farthest.
They called them ferrous wheels.
@variablepulserate I recently bought a pretty serious self-propelled cordless lawnmower. Because of my back and knee problems I can't use an ordinary push mower. This one has a 17-inch wide cut – other similar models have 19 and 21-inch widths.
