My sanity definitely took a big hit after my SE was stolen by (probably) FedEx. I was planning to trade it in for the $800 credit T-Mobile is offering.
Got a tip for us?

I want to go to Alaska one day. It's on the bucket list. The problem is I grew up in the City so I'm used to living that city life.
That's a nice photo. It looks cool but also death-defying. Also looks very tiring.
I'm never going to get caught up. I had a bunch of adulting stuff to do this afternoon, including returning the FineWoven case I ordered. Which was an interesting process because I started the return on the web, which only gave me the choice of printing out a shipping label and taking it to FedEx with my own box. So I tried to complete the return in an Apple store. It looks like it went through. We'll see. The nice Apple person at the store warned me to keep an eye on it, just in case. But that's a story for a different thread.
Anyway... that's why I'm behind. I never got a customs scan, but I am apparently part of wave 1 because I'm on the flight to Anchorage. (A lovely city. My parents lived there when first married.)
I'd like an adult beverage, please.
BTW the store had the FineWoven cases and wallets on display. But not the phones, of course.

I worked as a tour guide on a small charter boat (about 40 feet) one year in Alaska. Got to be within several feet of whales and other crazy things. Was amazing. Was a company that my cousin worked for at the time and he drove the boats and I entertained all the tourists telling stories and pointing out the wildlife and talking about them. My cousin owns a touring company now in Alaska. I need to go back there. It was life-changing.
Dang! You didn't waste no time. Already returned the Apple Wovencase? Is it really that cheaply bad?
I just know you must grab some sleep here and there in the space of a week. Don't take me so seriously. 😀
Please don’t buy a Thunderbolt cable for data transfers! Cable Matters [USB-IF Certified] 10 Gbps Gen 2 USB C to USB C Cable 3.3 ft / 1m with 8K Video and 100W Power Delivery in Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L0F6AJI?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_TE30K3GDGQQF1GN5XDZ7 something like this would be good enough and much cheaper. I used a 10Gbps cable with iPad Pro earlier to do a backup and it flew by.
Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) Pro Cable (1 m)
Thunderbolt 4 Pro Cable provides superfast data transfer, charging, and connection to your compatible Mac. The braided design avoids tangles. Buy now.www.apple.com
Does this cable have anything to do with faster charging or Is it just transfers ?
Sounds like fun! You are lucky to experience that. Did you get to see the Northern lights?
Which one is better to visit Anchorage or Fairbanks?
I interpreted it that they think we worship our iPhones and imagine ourselves sitting in the cockpit of the airplane while sipping on some wine.
Same! I'm planning on going to Iceland as well. So Dubai and Iceland. Planning on going on International trips next year that's the goal! Life is too short.
I know some people like it, but it just wasn't my cup of tea. I didn't like the fabric, I'm concerned that it won't be protective enough or durable, and it just didn't look to me like it was worth $60. If it were $25 or $30 I might have kept it as a backup.
I wont be buying it dont worry.
Q: What block size do I need for the fastest charging for 15 Pro?
Yeah, Iceland sounds nice. No chance in hell I’d do to Dubai though. I’m sick of the heat lol
I think Apple is playing with the customer's minds and taking advantage of it. Let's be real. Not everyone is into tech. Apple will outsell those cases to people who don't care much. They don't care what kind of iPhone they are getting or anything. These people don't care for the RAM or Peroscope camera. Those are the target audiences Apple is aiming for. It's kinda sad but that's how business works! Stepping over!
Yes, I saw the Northern Lights and it was breathtaking.
I've never been to Fairbanks. Anchorage is alright. I mostly stayed in Seward and was on the water for 14 hours a day, sometimes longer, because during the Summer there isn't any nightfall. Just 24 hours of daylight. Fairbanks is much better for viewing the Northern Lights because it's much further north, but it's also insanely freaking cold.
I agree. I have one beside me and it definitely isn't worth $60. I am curious to see how it holds up over time but my expectations are very low.
The moulin she was standing in had no visible bottom. It could have been hundreds or thousands of feet deep. Also, she didn't have any ropes, just a small ice pick and some crampons.
I live in Las Vegas. Heat doesn't bother me. This was in 2017. iPhone X
Look at the temps below.
That doesn't sound very uh ... safe.
A little earlier my phone needed charging. I usually use a wireless charger by my bed and let it charge at night. But I needed to keep using it... to check UPS, you know... so I pulled out a lightening cable and plugged it in for a bit. It occurred to me that might be the last time I ever use a lightening cable. I am not sad about this.
