Funny how phone cameras auto-white balances the orange mostly away. No evidence!

And the AQi isn't any worse than averages any other recent days. What gives? Is this an October Surprise in September?

Thanks and they look good. For others searching, although it’s a little out of date, Wirecutter has a breakdown of models capabilities. So many do nots. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-usb-c-cables/

Good reminder. Can anyone identify the cable used?

Not Mac specific, but anyone have a recommendation for a sturdy USB-C do everything third party cable?

Halfway through the Raised By Wolves pilot. Does it get any better?

My weight is responsible for a great many things. We also have different models, I believe (mattresses, not partners).

Maybe we're bouncing around on it more?

Redirecting back from The Horse Mistress: Book 2. Plenty of sales running right now. For whatever it's worth I'm not so sure we made the best choice in Aireloom v. McRoskey (I think the San Rafael showroom is currently closed). The Aireloom is still very nice, and I'm sure we're now taking it from granted, but it broke in more in three months than the McRoskey did in probably a decade. Starts with what they call the Aireloom Lift, but does dip not long after. McRoskey was more solid, but stayed solid.

Agreed. Enjoyed and it got better as the season progressed (at least until I lost Apple+). I'm sure sports fans are aware of the series origins, but I didn't until YouTube suggested. From seven years ago... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRqypM7jb5Y

Chernobyl again. So good and unfortunately relevant in whole new ways.

This guy certainly seems pretty special. Larry Pardey, Mariner Who Sailed the World Engineless, Dies at 80 With his wife, Lin, he circumnavigated the world twice on wooden boats he had built. And they always took their time. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/28/obituaries/larry-pardey-dead.html?referringSource=articleShare

You could fill your month with inspired by Sierra Madre films including, but far from limited to There Will Be Blood, The Wild Bunch, Three Kings, Da 5 Bloods, right up to Wet Gold.

...and of course the Criterion Collection service and free for many Kanopy.

Right, but you have to send the audio down the “camera” channel or the “content” channel. Advantages to each - content expects music, but camera applies noise reduction, where it expects voice only and suppresses anything else, including music (try to play The Stones’ Paint it Black to see how it fights itself). They’ve recently introduced “original audio” on camera which turns off some of the noise reduction, and if you’re matching camera work, probably want this. But there are trade-offs with each and of course Zoom is constantly adjusting. Anyway, good luck. If you need anyone to test with let me know.
