This other recent documentary about NHL 94 is also fascinating. Explains why the game felt and played differently than any other sports game at the time. https://youtube.com/watch?v=NRFT3iQx1BY&si=k4Boaw4onAWNPy1P This

I’m with you on renting instead of buying. I owned a home until a divorce. It wasn’t for me. I had to develop a whole network of unreliable contractors, which was time-consuming and the repairs and repairs to fix bad repairs all added up. T

This book was really disappointing. The characters were all underdeveloped, remaining angsty melodramatic teenagers until the end despite them all being adults. It also tries to deal with some heavy themes but fails due to the immature char

Lightroom is also the best I have found. Just this week I was able to send an album from a trip in 2012 to a friend and share some photos of a trail run last year with some new acquaintances at a conference directly from the iPhone app. You

House of the Dragon was based on Fire and Blood, and I thought was much worse than LOTR. I felt like I was duped into watching Downtown Abbey with dragons. Foundation was unwatchable but I liked LOTR. Not perfect but Galadriel's storyl

I had the same issue with battery being dead often when I wanted to use my iPad. I solved this by setting up a Siri automation to add a task in Todoist to charge the iPad whenever battery dips below 50.

Absurd. Reading and writing is the only reason we’re not stuck in caves. It’s allowed us to create a shared consciousness across time that has been necessary for progress. So the benefits of literacy certainly outweigh any risks. Furtherm

The Hario bottle has been my go to method for cold brew last couple years. It’s incredibly easy to use. Cold brew is so much easier on an empty stomach when I want to get some caffeine before my long runs.
