@timlockridge yeah, I’m conflicted. I’m not happy with the lock in, but DayOne is a legitimately great app that has helped me journal well

@Munish I have some thoughts. I’m glad they’re experimenting, even though it mostly doesn’t work for me
@birming nice post. I’ve found my 10-minute daily meditations really helpful for achieving this quiet quality
@Munish I’ve gone back and forth on this a few times and ended up writing down why I was sticking with DayOne, though the Journal app has improved since then with the addition of the iPad app and exporting. I feel like I’m locked into DayOne at this point
@camiel looks like you dropped DayOne? I’d find that difficult to do, though would be nice to avoid the expense
@KevinHoltsberry that’s a lot of miles! You get to stop now?
@cliff538 oh, no. That’s just at the end. I take the pizza out to add some basil and then put it back in for a few seconds. The pizza stone seems pretty essential to get the crust cooked
@mathyousee that’s a great aid station!
@mathyousee thanks! Need to find some monkey bars to hang from
@philipbrewer this is an intriguing idea that I’d like to think through
@mathyousee yeah, I use it as a general indicator, rather than specific prediction. But, most of my household is fighting off colds. So, I think I know where this is going ☹️
@numericcitizen nice summary, thanks!
@Miraz that’s exciting. Enjoy!
@gobino seems like a tough few weeks, but you’ve got a good plan. Such a frustrating, rewarding, and addictive sport! All the best on the rest of the training and good luck in Valencia
@manton nice! Congrats @BonnieRue
@manton This is great! Thanks
@Miraz nice shot!
@rscottjones impressive foresight! My wife and I are also about ten years away and just started taking retirement more seriously. This is some good inspiration to guide that conversation.
@rscottjones the winner shifts across the neighbourhood each year. Fall colours must be an interesting mix of environmental factors
@lmika I was obsessed with Open Eye Signal for a while.

@ericmwalk I enjoy running in the snow, if I have the right gear. I wasn’t quite ready on this run

@ericmwalk wow!
@KevinHoltsberry it seemed to turn so fast from Fall to Winter
@gabz you’ve really captured my deliberations on this. Some days I want to go back to the early days of exciting new technology and fiddling with my tools. Most days, though, I just want to get on with my day and Apple products “just work” for me.
@ericmwalk well done! Earned an extra coffee
@mandaris Maybe a fourth notebook would help? 😀
@velocykel good idea. Many years ago, I was running Ubuntu on my MacBook and it worked well
@timlockridge I’ve been ordering from MEC. They fit me well and have a phone sized pocket on the thigh
@ericmwalk I started them wearing a few years ago and find them great for the inconsistent weather we have here
@renevanbelzen this weather is too cold to start in shorts and too warm to stay in tights. So have to dress in layers
@cliff538 great, glad you found it helpful too. Good to be reminded of the basics sometimes
@mathyousee oh, thanks, very generous! I tried estimating the size I would need and came up with 14. So, likely wouldn’t fit. But, again, thanks!
@birming I’m obsessed with the All Melody and #2 section. Seeing how he does it live makes it even more amazing
@manton my condolences on your loss. Planting trees is a wonderful response
@birming a fantastic show!
@mathyousee seems well worth it then. You’re not helping my resolve 😀
@derekpeden yeah, that’s fair. There was a lot of time spent staring into the distance and many pep talks, rather than actual action
@greg_morris impressive! Good luck with the training
@mathyousee interesting. Good to know. I already have several health indicators that I seem to ignore. Not sure that more would help, especially if they aren’t accurate
@greg_morris speedy! Congrats
@alpower @gobino thanks for confirming and helping me keep my resolve. A silly, though pervasive, idea to think I can solve my tech concerns with just one more gadget
@greg_morris I keep seeing good things about this product. I might have to get over the Meta part
@VaylLarkin cool! Looking forward to it
@Miraz I always like to start over too. Nice to reconsider choices from the past
@josephaleo @gentry I used Overcast for years. Seems like time to switch back (again)
@Gentry good to know. I’d switched over to Apple Podcasts, but now it is being unreliable. I was thinking of going back to Overcast
@alexwolfe good enough for me!
@alexwolfe As a big fan of the books, it also took me a few episodes to get into the show. But, overall I really enjoyed it!
@ericmwalk the wrong kind of time travel 😀
@AlexWolfe bonus points if you own a Tragically Hip, Rush, or Jann Arden concert t shirt
