    Some folks get into ASMR (Autonomous sensory meridian response) to chill out. Cool if that’s your thing but I’ve found the most relaxing thing on the internet: watching John Twist from University Motors work on MGs. This 15 minute video on jacking up an MGB will teach you more than you ever thought there was…

  • Best Apple Watch App for Running

  • Fuji X70. Not a portable X series.

    I have been loving my Fuji XE2s since I bought it off of Amazon a couple of years ago. It takes some of the best photos of any camera I’ve ever owned and is a joy to use in every way (manual dials for ISO, Shutter Speed, aperture. So nice!). Except it doesn’t fit in…

  • NetNewsWire in public beta

    One of my favorite Mac RSS readers ever, has a new version in public beta. I’m currently using Reeder on Mac and iOS but am looking forward to reuniting with this old friend!
