A biography statement? Hmmm...I don't know. What do I say here? When I was born? Where I grew up? My family? My education? My career as a higher education student affairs and IT professional? Nah. I'm good.

Unpopular reality check:
Most people in real life just call it Apple TV. They know what they mean. "The Apple one".
Renaming the service to Apple TV is cleaner, and totally a non-issue. Only nerds obsess about naming these things. Nobody in real life will ever say the sentence "The TV app for Apple TV on Apple TV". Only people here do.

Review: Moaan InkPalm Plus is weird, cheap, small, and my kind of e-reader https://sixcolors.com/post/2024/06/review-moaan-inkpalm-plus-is-weird-cheap-small-and-my-kind-of-e-reader/
James ThomsonI’ve been playing around with the iPadOS 18 calculator, and some of the stuff is neat, but I think it’s probably more of a threat to Soulver and the like, than it is to PCalc.
It doesn’t do RPN, custom layouts, user functions / conversions / constants, multiple memories, hex/oct/binary, visual themes, and a lot more that PCalc does. It does have nicer expression based entry, which is something I want to add.
The Math Notes stuff feels like it’s a separate app.
Also, no bananas whatsoever!

Dan MorenNice review of ALL SOULS LOST over at the British Fantasy Society: “Moren mixes the magical with the everyday to create a unique environment with a detective noir feel." Every day I'm mixing! https://britishfantasysociety.org/all-souls-lost/
Listening to ATP and your thinking about Callsheet on VisionOS. Are you thinking about a X-ray type capability so that Callsheet is sitting off to the side and senses what is playing in a video window to present the movie or series episode info over in Callsheet? That seems pretty cool. However, that is from a customer who is not buying this device. Good luck!
