Recent failures have demonstrated that an untested backup is no backup at all. Turns out some of my backups were failing. Freshly replaced with something bigger, better, and emptier then ever!
Month: September 2017
TBT: Fondly remembering my days slaying dragons. . .
Throwback Thursday: I found some old screenshots from 2006. I remember how proud i was to be #2 DPS in this fight. (at the time, warlocks were not a particularly high DPS class) Sometimes i do miss playing World of Warcraft, but i don’t regret quitting. I know the game has changed a lot since I played regularly. I hear you can fly in Azeroth now. . .
iOS 11! installed!
looking good with exciting new Control Center and loads of other features. my favorite is 5x sleep to disable touch ID (instantly and temporarily). I am looking forward to the new Augmented Reality features built into ARkit. I cannot wait to see what developers do with it.
There are a few sticky wickets (i.e. Apple changed the bluetooth and wifi toggle functionality in Control Center). For example, if you “turn off” wifi it actually just disassociates you from your current network leaving your wifi radio on and functioning. i don’t mind because i wanted exactly this feature. if you actually want to turn off a radio, you need to go to your Settings app or turn on Airplane mode.
Apple maps is stepping up their game with indoor maps of malls, airports and others allowing navigation without GPS or even a view of the sky. Easy trick to share your complex wifi password with other apple devices and of course native animated GIF support!
