• Wish of the day: I’d like to connect an Apple TV to an Apple Studio Display.

  • HEY, what about Improving Newsletters Reading Experience?

    As a paying subscriber to HEY mail, I find it strange that the newsletter consumption feature has never been updated since its initial release1. A product is rarely perfect on its first try. For example: newsletters are presented in a semi-expanded form, but I wish I could display them as … read more

  • I had many personal goals for this week-end1, a week-end already coming to a conclusion. I’m happy to report that they were all met! I feel good about this. 😊


    1. Goals that don’t always align with my creative hobbies. But that is ok. ↩︎

  • 💥 Hey, it’s Sunday! And, it’s time for the new edition of my Weekly Creative Summary! Enjoy. Coming up later for my lovely subscribers! 💌

  • For those who are new to the Micro.blog hosting service, in this video, I share a few tips and tricks for reading efficiently your Micro.blog timeline. If you aren’t new to Micro.blog. Well, you might discover a few things anyway!

  • My First Genuine Ah Ah Moment With Generative AI

    Here is a quick recount of my “Ah ah moment” this morning, involving generative AI in a simple workflow. I’m still in awe about it. If I stumble on a long and chatty YouTube video that might be interesting, I’ll use this workflow to quickly get the gist out of it. First, I use Downie (a Mac … read more

  • There is so much buzz around the Internet about the newly released Ubiquiti Unify Express router. To me, it seems to be a capable router at a reasonable price. Man, I wish Apple was still in this market1.


    1. I know Apple’s version wouldn’t be as features rich as Ubiquiti’s, but… ↩︎

  • Happy with Ulysses. 😊 #iawriter7

  • I finished watching this video today while waiting for my car at the garage. Andrej Karpathy gives a great talk explaining Gen AI and how the whole process works, and then some more explanations about the possible future around AI. It’s a must-see.

  • While on my desk, I want to use my iPad Pro over Ethernet @ 1 GbE (much faster than wifi) while keeping it charging. Also, it seems that it’s not possible to prioritize Ethernet over Wireless (like we can on the Mac)1. Am I missing something? Am I the only one on earth who prefers Ethernet? Any suggestion?


    1. It seems that Wifi needs to be disabled. ↩︎

  • I’m generally unfazed by black Friday sales… I buy things when I need them, not because of any deals. But, this morning, I bought a Kodak slides scanner because I have hundreds of old family slides sitting in boxes. I feel sad not to spend the time to put a new life in those memories. So there you go, a new slide scanner. I’ll probably write an extensive review of it.

  • If you don’t know me, but especially the places where I’m sharing and for what purpose, that is the video to watch.

  • With a bit of a delay, here is my weekly creative summary for week 2023/47. Coming a bit later for my subscribers! 😅

  • A new goal: about security: migrating my two-factor authentication from Authy to Apple’s Keychain / iCloud Passwords. Signing into any service when using Apple’s solution is too cool and efficient to pass.

  • Today it’s time for an update to my creative and blogger workflow1. You can get an overview in this diagram, and the changelog here on my metablog. Any questions? 😅


    1. The previous version was published on 2023-04. ↩︎

  • It’s my most “successful” image ever on Pixelfed, by far. 😊 Testing MarsEdit Micropost feature (again).

  • I created my Backblaze account earlier this week to replace Dropshare Cloud. Today, I discovered that Cloudflare offers S3-compatible storage too, with a similar free tier (10 GB). Since CF is my domain name registrar, maybe I should have created my S3 bucket with them instead?1 🤔


    1. But the Dropshare client probably doesn’t yet offer a connector to CF storage. 🤷🏻‍♂️ ↩︎

  • This week, I discovered and experienced the joy of having my two-factor authentication PIN configured within Apple’s password management, and it is a joy to set up and use most of the time1. I’m seriously thinking of leaving Authy behind2. If only Apple had a stand-alone password.app.


    1. Having to go through Safari (Mac) or Settings (iOS) is bad. ↩︎

    2. Migrating from Authy to Apple’s solution required disabling two-factor authentication and then re-enabling it. Tedious. ↩︎

  • I should visit the Micro.blog Discover section more often… there are some gems over there from time to time.

  • A follow-up to my previous post about Dropshare: Are any users of Backblaze over here? Thoughts? Which service do you use? S3-compatible storage or client (Mac) backup to the cloud?1 🤔


    1. Users can get 10 GB of free storage, which should be enough for my needs. ↩︎
