Feeling miserable thanks to a cough/cold/flu. Running since Wednesday I’ve suffered a snot explosion over the weekend with aches and pains all over. WFH for next couple of days I suspect to get through the worst.
Apple event next week. Most hardware seems leaked already unlike the Jobs era when there were always surprises. What I’d want more of from Apple is to make better use of the health data it captures. The vitals above show my last few days with some obvious outliers thanks to the bug I’ve picked up. Why isn’t there any action from that change – ask how I am, is there something wrong, then act on my responses with guidance. Feed in my health changes to ChatGPT and I get a ton of advice and links out to NHS. Apple need to pick up the pace and stop kissing Trumps backside.
Labours in a bit of a mess. Should Raynor have gone? Yes, she can;t be housing minister and screw up on tax and Labour have set the bar higher now for ministers. It’s clear though she’s been hounded and targeted by opposition MP’s and the press – is it due to her combative nature? Her background? Either way when you compare Raynor to what Boris Johnson did – unlawfully prorogued parliament when in Government, prosecuted and fined for holding illegal parties in Downing Street, ignored bullying across government, backed friends ground guilty of breaches on paid lobbying, lied to the Queen, placed lovers into paid jobs…and lets not talk Covid. As for Reform – I hope they will come unstuck but the pools are worrying.
Reclaim our flag – seeing saltires flying around Glasgow recently it reminded me of 2014 and the Indy vote – but there’s a fight in Scotland at least to claim the saltire. As ever, shady right wing facists are at the heart of this.
How Apple AirPods Work – Great video on some amazing tech. If AirPods Pro 3 come out this week it will be an insta-purchase. Best Apple product in years.
M365 Copilot fails to up productivity – I’m not surprised by these findings. For the cost per user per month you need to be using Copliot often and worth good results to make it worthwhile.
Alien: Earth continues to impress. Episode 5 this week was up there with some of the best bits from the movies.
