I bought a new aftermarket CarPlay stereo the other day. Serious question, why is the wireless CarPlay an extra $300 over the wired CarPlay version?
In the last few years I’ve had to start getting the barber to trim my eyebrows when I get a haircut. They’re not too bad most of the time, which means I sometimes forget. Then they are really annoying by the time my next haircut is due. #middleage #funtimes
50/50 Ride
Scenes from a ride. Monday I took the day off from work and did a 80km gravel ride. It was fun AND there was much suffering.
Why did I call this my 50/50 Ride? Because Monday was my 50th birthday, so I rode 50 miles.

Some moss I happened upon while on a dog walk. This area is in a lane way and there are many amazing little sights if you are looking for them.
Spring in Victoria. This morning we woke to a damp and foggy day that was lovely to get out for a walk in with Rusty. #photography #yyj #dogwalk
Fascinating read on designing controls for cars. Like many, I dislike fully touchscreen controls in a car. Having to look at the button I want to take action on is a pain. Screens are (sometimes) not bright enough during the day, but too bright at night (aging eyes).
While going through some of this article, I kept thinking about other applications of the concepts of a physical control, with digital output. My mother in law could use better controls on her stove, and these would work well.
