I have a 7yo son so we go out pretty much every day to the park. I haven't tracked anything but ballparking it from the distance and how long we are out I probably walk around 2-3 miles a day. Some of that will be a light jog while kic

Am I alone in preferring the iPhone SE 2020 camera over the iPhone 11 camera in their examples? Not always but way more than I expected anyway. It sounds a little hyperbolic but for $399 the iPhone SE 2020 seems to be shockingly good value.

My wife asked me what I thought of the new macOS look and my reply was "well I don't hate it" which I think is the best kind of response I can give based on a few screenshots and a short pre-made demo. There is a lot I liked
