Are people just discovering that Apple is a corporation, a big one, part of a capitalist system? Really? It’s sad. It is what it is. Empires come and go. That’s not always fun to watch, but it is what it is.

Since coming back from vacation, my morning routine is simple and is always the same: wake up, make coffee, open up the Mac, read Micro.blog timeline, update the current issue of The Ephemeral Scrapbook, do some photo-processing work, tweak my secret work-in-progress-soon-to-be-revealed website with Elements, and read some news before having breakfast.

Follow-up to my previous post: I’ll be returning the Ubiquiti G6 Instant camera. It’s a really nice designed device, very Apple-like. But I can’t justify replacing my Dream Router with the Dream Router 7 only to add Wifi 7 and support for Ubiquiti Project. Too bad.

Ordered and received an Ubiquiti G6 Instant surveillance camera only to discover that UniFi Protect which is required to manage and use that camera isn’t supported on my UniFi Dream Router from 2020. 🙁 I would need to replace my router with a Dream Router 7 if I want to keep the camera. But replacing my router would probably require replacing my two network extenders, too. 😔

Asking for a summarized review of reviews of a product like the NIKKOR Z 70-180mm f/2.8 with Perplexity pro prompt is super cool to get the gist of a product quality and capabilities (here are the results1). We live in exciting times, even if challenging.

After reading John Siracusa’s articles about Apple current issues and possible remediations this morning (1, 2), I wish I had enough time at my disposal to create timetogotim.org1, a website promoting the need for a change of leadership at Apple.
